What do you do when it seems as if people want to stay in their pain. They have a story to tell and they tell you every chance they get. Well, believe it or not, they may like where they are. Our job is to leave them there. You can point the way out of pain, but you cannot force them to get out. You can support the move beyond their limitations, but you cannot make the move for them.

You will stumble at time, forget what you want, fall headfirst into your old habits and beliefs. Fear not! Always remember to be patient and loving with yourself and others because that is what God does all the time.

What looks like a failure teaches us what not to do, what does not work. We have lessons to learn from our experiences.

Some children do what they’re told to do; some children do what they’re told not to do; all children do what they’re parents have done.

Don't hold yourself back because you're afraid or because you've been hurt...acknowle dge your fear, accept it, and walk through it with confidence.

When you have something to do life will not allow you to ove foward until you do it.

Love is not all that is required in a relationship. It needs understanding, openness, kidness, patience, long-suffering
