Life is not just the passing of time. Life is the collection of experiences and their intensity.

One of the best places to start to turn your life around is by doing whatever appears on your mental "I should" list.

If you talk to your children, you can help them keep their lives together. If you talk to them skillfully, you can help them to build future dreams.

How much should you earn? As much as you possibly can. It doesn't matter whether you earn $10,000 a year or $100,000 a year as long as you've done the best you can.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. Let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! Let others give up, but not you! For you know in whom you believe and you know that He is always able. Now, that's you!
