Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don’t.

We all do things we desperately wish we could undo. Those regrets just become part of who we are, along with everything else. To spend time trying to change that, well, it’s like chasing clouds.

The world is a
dangerous place to live;
not because of the people
who are evil,
but because of the people
who don’t do anything
about it.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that.

Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

To do anything truly worth doing, I must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in with gusto and scramble through as well as I can.

The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.

How do you pick up the threads of an old life?
How do you go on, when in your heart, you begin to understand, there is no going back?
There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep…that have taken hold.

You can’t
live your life
for other people.
You’ve got to do
what’s right for you,
even if it hurts some
people you love.

I am lonely, yet
not everybody will do.
I don’t know why, some
people fill the gaps and
others emphasize
my loneliness.

Hope begins in the dark and stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don’t give up.
