Yet if we are to live fully, we must love as though we've never been hurt, dream as though our hopes have never been dashed, and take steps toward the future as though life has never given us pain.

Where you begin doesn't matter. Your willingness to start is what counts.

Fear is an affirmation of your growth.

Forgiveness ... is a willingness to get over what you think should have happened and an acceptance of the reality of what actually happened.

When you heed the calling of your heart, you are following your purpose. Having purpose in your life gives you the courage to do the things you are meant to do. When you are purpose driven, you have learned to listen to your intutition and never let no get in your way.

Your body’s reaction to fear is the same whether you are faced with a physical threat or an emotional one.

Yet if we are to live fully, we must love as though we've never been hurt, dream as though our hopes have never been dashed, and take steps toward the future as though life has never given us pain.
