What God intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine.

It isn't until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are - not necessarily a religious feeling, but deep down, the spirit within - that you can begin to take control.

The great courageous act that we must all do, is to have the courage to step out of our history and past so that we can live our dreams.

When you make loving others the story of your life, there's never a final chapter, because the legacy continues. You lend your light to one person, and he or she shines it on another and another and another.

This is your moment. Own it.

Listen. Pay attention. Treasure every moment.

Even as a kid, my memories are of books taking me out of myself.
