We laugh to survive. Then, with joy we thrive.

Pain is a difficult companion. There's no getting around that. But, if pain is to be a companion, searching and discovering your own best ways to travel with that pain will lead you to the joy that you long to have. They are your paths, your ways and while my experience and the experiences of others may inspire you, ultimately it will be the choices you discover and make for yourself that lead you to certain joy in the midst of your challenges.

It takes discipline and compassion to awaken the divine in ourselves long enough to recognize the divine in another.

Your success will shine as a light of hope and inspire numbers you cannot total.

Just stop it. Seriously. Whatever it is. Just stop it. If only for an hour, a day, a week. Stop doing it long enough to get a glimpse of what the change would actually look like.

If you follow the trail of your own enthusiastically repeated stories, you will begin to rediscover the things that invigorate and enliven you.

The boldness of endurance is the underline to almost every success.
