To survive you must surrender without giving in, that is to say, fully accept the reality in all its horror and never give up the will to survive. That allows you to quickly adapt to the situation and dedicate yourself to the present moment rather than wallow in denial.

The sun beams are always there. The trick is in seeing them.

The summit is not the only place on the mountain.

Count your blessings. Be grateful-- you're alive

Gravity is on duty all of the time.

To survive you must find yourself then it won't matter where you are.

Success is a dangerous element in any endeavor. Embrace the struggle. Beware the achievement. For it steals your caution even as it leads you down the next unknown pathway.
