Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have, life itself.....

Many people have touched the edges of my life, coming and going, scarcely leaving an impression...............

Someday when the pages of my life end, I know that you will be one of its most beautiful chapters.......

You can see a clock, but you can't see the time. You can see my face, but you can't see my mind. You can see the clouds, but you can't see the wind............

Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken..........

A kiss isn't a kiss unless it's the one you really love. A hug isn't a hug until it's the one you're thinking of. A dream isn't a dream until you make it come true, and love is just a word until it's proven to you..............

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies............

There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief..........

 Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination.......

Only by joy and sorrow does a person know anything about themselves and their destiny. They learn what to do and what to avoid.......

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look..............

A spiritual journey is not so much a journey of discovery. It's a journey of recovery, it's a journey of uncovering your own inner nature.....

The words of kindness are more healing to a drooping heart than balm or honey.........

A sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier times..............

Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away..............

 Time is what we want most, but what we use worst..............

Until you value yourself, you won't value your time. Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it.............
