It is not giving up, it is accepting. And the light will enter. Always does.

Pain doesn't last. And when it's gone, we have something to show for it. Growth.

No matter how smart we may think we are, no matter how committed we are to our truth, we can lose our way.

Life is a series of choices and all we can do is make them.

One thing I've learned: we don't stumble accidentally into an amazing life. It takes decision, a commitment to consistently work on ourselves.

Reach out, share your truth, tell someone, "This is who I am. This is what I stand for. Hold me to it." Often, we'll do far more for another than we will do for ourselves.
