The secret of......

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.

 

 

 

 

 

Only those who will risk.....

"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."

  -- T. S. Eliot

 

 

 

Present suffering is......

"Present Suffering is not enjoyable, but life would be worth little without it. The difference between iron and steel is fire. But steel is work all its costs." -- Maltbie Babcock

 

 

 

 

 

Nothing in the world....

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common thn unsuccessful talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated failures. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." -- Calvin Coolidge

 

 

 

 

Far better is it....

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." --Theodore Roosevelt.

 

 

 

 

A Personal Post

This post is a little personal. I always love it when I get comments on how people never see me without a smile, always see me happy and always see me in a wonderful mood. It means that I've come along way. People tend to stare in disbelief then when I talk about my past. I've gone through many periods of darkness. Many periods of intense violence, anger and hurt. But, not only did I survive and make it out on the other side. I also came out a much happier, stronger person. One that's completely in love with life, at peace with myself and the world around me, and unconditionally happy. I've always known that it is my path to help as many others live the lives of their dreams; and the lessons that I've learned, and the scars that I've beared; have only helped me in my quest. Remember, the wake my always trail behind the boat, but it has no bearing on the boat's direction. And, no matter where you are right now, no matter what you're going through, you can not only survive and make it out the other end; but you can find out that the best is yet to come for you!! Much love and happiness to everyone! =)

 

 

A little from Seneca

"It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare. It is because we do not dare that they are difficult." --- Seneca
