The past is history.
The future, a mystery.
The here and now is a gift.
That is why it's called the present.

Faith ..

When you come to the end of all the light you know and you are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on or you will be taught how to fly.

I Believe ..

I believe that life was meant to be embraced, not just endured;
treasured, not just tolerated;
savored, not just survived;
advertised, not just avoided;
illuminated, not just ignored;
and most of all,
I believe that life was meant to be Celebrated !

In Every Journey ..

In every journey there is meaning.
In every conflict, there is growth.
In every action, there is purpose.
In every moment of doubt, remember to believe in yourself!

Happiness is...

taking in all the wonders of life --
its joys, its sorrows, its sunshine, its smiles --
learning from the experiences each one brings you,
and then, from a caring heart, giving them all away again.

You ..

Never be content with someone else's definition of You. Instead, define yourself by your own beliefs, your own truths, your own understanding of who you are and how you came to be. And never be content until you are happy with the unique person you are!

What Is Courage?

Confronting the dragons
Overcoming the obstacles
Understanding the risks
Really living
Always believing
Going the distance
Expecting the Best
