    We spend January 1st walking through our lives, room by room,
    drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched.
    Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk
    through the rooms of our lives … not looking for flaws but for potential.
    ~Ellen Goodman~

    Everything in life is temporary.
    So if things are going good, enjoy it because it won’t last forever.
    And if things are going bad, don’t worry...
    it can’t last forever either.

    She believed she could, but she was tired...so she rested and you know what?
    The world went on and it was okay. She knew she could try again tomorrow

    You gain strength and courage, and confidence by every experience
    in which you stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself
    "I have lived through this horror, and I can take the next thing that
    comes along. I must do the thing I think I cannot do."
    ~Eleanor Roosevelt~

    “If you find someone who makes you smile, who checks up on you
    often to see if you’re okay, who watches out for you,
    wants the best for you, and who loves and respects you...
    don’t let them go. People like that are hard to find.”
    ~Franz Kafka~
