If I insist on being pessimistic, there is always tomorrow. Today I am blessed.

Look heavenward and speak the word aloud. Peace. We look at our world and speak the word aloud. Peace.

All my work, my life, everything I do is about survival, not just bare, awful, plodding survival, but survival with grace and faith. While one may encounter many defeats, one must not be defeated.

We need Joy as we need air. We need Love as we need water. We need each other as we need the earth we share.

Having courage does not mean that we are unafraid. Having courage and showing courage mean we face our fears. We are able to say, 'I have fallen, but I will get up.'

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.
