A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.

It doesn't matter who you have hurt, if you've learned not to hurt again. It doesn't matter what mistakes you've made as long as you don't make them again. As long as you learn, as long as you're willing to take your life in your hands, and kiss it and go from there. Then there is growth. There there is life!

To this day I cannot see a bright daffodil, a proud gladiola, or a smooth eggplant without thinking of Papa. Like his plants and trees, I grew up as a part of his garden.

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.

Assume that people are good until you actually and specifically learn differently. And even then, know that they have potential for change and that you can help them out.

Life is our greatest possession and love its greatest affirmation.
