When you are not pursuing your goal, you are literally committing spiritual suicide.
Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.
If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.
A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand.
You can't see the picture when you're in the frame.
In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you have achieved, that is the most important.
