“Most of us remain strangers to ourselves, hiding who we are, and ask other strangers, hiding who they are, to love us.”

Success often lies just the other side of failure.

What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.

Find the person who will love you because of your differences and not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

Love is always bestowed as a gift – freely, willingly and without expectation. We don’t love to be loved; we love to love.

Change. It has the power to uplift, to heal, to stimulate, surprise, open new doors, bring fresh experience and create excitement in life.

In a crazy world, it’s only your insanity that will keep you sane.

We need not be afraid to touch, to feel, to show emotion. The easiest thing in the world is to be what you are, what you feel.

Choose the way of life. Choose the way of love. Choose the way of caring. Choose the way of goodness. It’s up to you. It’s your choice.

When you’d hurt, I’d rush to your side. When I’d hurt, you’d hide.

Realize that enough hidden strength lies within you to overcome all obstacles and temptations. Bring forth that indomitable power and energy.

The freedom to think out loud on certain topics, without fear of being hounded into hiding or killed, has already been lost.

That’s the thing about hope. It hides in all the darkest places.
