"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;

and lean not unto thine owner understanding.

In all thy ways acknowledge Him, 

and He shall direct thy paths."

~ Proverbs 3:5-6 ~

" Be intentional." 

"If you don't become the ocean, you'll be seasick every day." ~ Leonard Cohen ~

"Don't wish me happiness

I don't expect to be happy all the time...

It's gotten beyond that somehow.

Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor.

I will need them all."

~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh ~ 

"People underestimate their capacity for change.
There is never a right time to do a difficult thing."
~ John Porter ~
"I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable." 
~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh ~
"What I like most about change is that it's a synonym for "hope". If you are taking a risk, what you are really saying is, "I believe in tomorrow and I will be a part of it."
~ Linda Ellerbee ~

"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

the courage to change the things I can,

and the wisdom to know the difference."

~ Reinhold Niebuhr ~

"A flower does not think about competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms."
"The most exhausting thing in life, I have discovered, is being insincere. That is why so much of social life is exhausting; one is wearing a mask. I have shed my mask." 
~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh ~
"It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it." ~ Lena Horne ~
"Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change." 
~ Mary Shelley ~

"Letting go doesn't mean giving up, 

but rather accepting there are things that cannot be."

"It isn't for the moment you are struck that you need courage,

but for that long uphill climb back to sanity and faith and security."

~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh ~

"All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter 
another."  ~ Anatole France ~
"Don't let your happiness depend upon something you may lose." 
~ C. S. Lewis ~ 

"Through the power of the Holy Spirit who lives within us,

carefully guard the precious truth that has been entrusted to you."

~ 2 Timothy 1:14 ~
