Happiness isn’t the reward we retrieve after a long struggle. It arrives daily, in those clear moments when our hearts are tender, pricked by the embrace of a loved one, the beauty of a single flower, the majesty of the world in which we are central. Look over your shoulder at how far you’ve come and all the good things you’ve experienced and that is when you will see the smiling face of happiness.

I can only change the world by changing myself.

The darkness will always know your name but you don’t have to answer when it calls.

When we let go and stop dragging the pain and past, we free ourselves of dead weight and allow our hearts to heft the good stuff…the stuff that makes our journey lighter, easier, and more meaningful.

Decide today that there’s going to be a plot twist in your life story. Be that twist.

Keep the memories that make you smile. Stay connected to the people that make you better. Do the things that make you stronger. Let the rest go

You have a work to do that will never be accomplished if you don’t move forward today.

Run, lift, stretch, move, move, move to live

If it doesn’t fit comfortably within your heart, let it go.
