The surest sign that you're working with the life-affirming kind of discipline, rather than the spirit-depressing kind, is that you don't complain very much about doing what it takes.

Sometimes even feeling bad feels good. Negative emotions can feel so familiar (especially if they mimic our past) as to actually be comforting. Awareness is realizing that our life could always be better. Growth is doing what it takes to make it better.

I want to surrender to the feelings and shapes of words and not stop until I am clearly heard by myself and my God.

Being your true self is the most effective formula for success there is.

Love the necessary hard work.

Feeling good is the primary intention
