Do not compare yourself to others. You have a unique destiny and mission that only you can accomplish.

Every person who dedicates his or her life to something that belongs to the greater good is very meaningful.

Everyone has the capacity for courage. We don't need to face extreme circumstances to become admirable people.

Try to avoid complaints. Self-pity even when legitimate never fails to undermine your strength.

I knew that if I wanted to survive, it wasn't about healing or trying to forget. It was about how I could use my life to answer what had happened to us. In many ways, it saved my life.
