May your troubles be less and your blessings be more.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

Surely what a man does when he is in an uncomfortable situation is the best evidence for the sort of man he is.

You will learn that no matter how many pieces your heart was broken into, the world will not stop for you to fix it.

Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full resources that are within thy reach.

Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.

If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you must look forward, do so prayerfully. However, the wisest thing you can do is be present in the present...gratefully.
