“And that, is the story of our country, one invasion after another Macedonians. Saddanians. Arabs. Mongols. Now the Soviets. But we’re like those walls up there. Battered, and nothing pretty to look at, but still standing.”

You’re gutless. It’s how you were made. And that’s not such a bad thing because your saving grace is that you’ve never lied to yourself about it. Not about that. Nothing wrong with cowardice as long as it comes with prudence. But when a coward stops remembering who he is God help him.

A man’s heart is a wretched, wretched thing. It isn’t like a mother’s womb. It won’t bleed. It won’t stretch to make room for you.

Quiet is peace. Tranquility. Quiet is turning down the volume knob on life. Silence is pushing the off button. Shutting it down. All of it.

One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs, Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls.

I’ve read that if an avalanche buries you and you’re lying there underneath all that snow, you can’t tell which way is up or down. You want to dig yourself out but pick the wrong way, and you dig yourself to your own demise.

I wish it were easy. You know to be brave. And look at myself without quickly wanting to turn away.

If you’re still drawing breath, God’s not done with you yet. Don’t quit. Be brave and believe God is for you.

This year will have more challenges to come. Our senses of togetherness & bravery is what will make the difference.

Stay strong, be brave, love hard and true, and you will have nothing to lose.

Forgiveness is the virtue of Brave.
