It takes the same amount of energy to live a good life as it does a bad one. Choose wisely.

'No one can hide the star that you are.' - Brad Hardisty

FAITH is the only known antidote for FAILURE!' -Napoleon Hill

“The difference between successful people and failures is that successful people make a habit of doing the things that failures don’t like to do.” Albert Grey

"A woman is like a tea bag- you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water." -Eleanor Roosevelt

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

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter. -Martin Luthar King, jr.

“Come to the edge.”“We can't. We're afraid.”
“Come to the edge." “We can't. We will fall!”
“Come to the edge.” And they came.

~Guillaume Apollinaire

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
