Beginning today, I will create a new future by creating a new me. No longer will I dwell in a pit of despair, moaning over squandered time and lost opportunity. I can do nothing about the past. My future is immediate. I will grasp it in both hands and carry it with running feet. When I am faced with the choice of doing nothing or doing something, I will always choose to act! I seize this moment. I choose now.

I will not waste time on second thoughts. My life will not be an apology. It will be a statement.

Of course it does, Jomes answered earnestly. Many of life's treasures remain hidden from us simply because we never search for them.

Proof of hope, however, is not only possible, it is an overlooked law of the universe.

WHAT a person thinks is determined by HOW a person thinks.

Everybody wants to make a difference, but nobody wants to be different. And you simply cannot have one without the other.

Knowledge is one thing. We're awash in knowledge. Wisdom is rare. There's a big difference.
