What makes one strong is not the ability to confront adversity and cruelty, but rather the ability to love in spite of it.

Life is a gift. Treat each moment with anticipation and gratitude.

When our thoughts, at times, wander into darkness... remember we are human and have been imbued with free will to choose the light.

When we repay unkindness with unkindness, we perpetuate the cycle of negativity within which our world is embroiled. We have the right and responsibility to choose differently.

In any given situation you will find only what you bring with you...

I am a rock in a sea of despair and yearning. Take hold of me and together we may form an island of hope and plenty.
