You have to find what’s good and true and beautiful in your life as it is now. Looking back makes you competitive. And, age is not a competitive issue.

What is it about childhood that never lets you go, even when you're so wrecked it's hard to believe you ever were a child?

Things that happen before you are born still affect you and people who come before your time affect you as well.

There's a story behind everything..but behind all your stories is always your mother's story..because hers is where yours begins.

I don't know what it is about food your mother makes for you, especially when it's something that anyone can make - pancakes, meat loaf, tuna salad - but it carries a certain taste of memory.

This is the greatest gift God can give you: to understand what happened in your life. To have it explained. It is the peace you have been searching for.

Before you measure the years, you measure the days.
