“It is never too late or too soon. It is when it is supposed to be.”

All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Some parents smudge, others crack, a few shatter childhoods completely into jagged little pieces, beyond repair.

I think what you notice most when you haven’t been home in a while is how much the trees have grown around your memories.

We cannot stop what Heaven chooses.

There are no random acts, We are all connected. You can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind.

Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

She had been so consumed with escaping her own misery, she hadn’t considered the misery she might inflict.

The words people do not speak are louder than the ones they do.

But she wasn’t around, and that’s the thing when your parents die, you feel like instead of going in to every fight with backup, you are going into every fight alone.

We need to forgive ourselves. For all the things we didn’t do. All the things we should have done. You can’t get stuck on the regrets of what should have happened.

Remember, the only difference between ‘marital’ and ‘martial’ is where you put the ‘i’.

Don’t cling to things because everything is impermanent.

Sharing tales of those we’ve lost is how we keep from really losing them.

The most inspirational man I knew only reached his potential by helping a child reach his.

It’s such a shame to waste time. We always think we have so much of it.

All endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it at the time.

The secret to happiness be satisfied and be grateful.

Life calls not for perfection, but for completeness.

When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky.

Complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation.

Do not be afraid of perfection – you will never attain it.

Practice makes perfect. After a long time of practicing, our work will become natural, skillfull, swift, and steady.

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.

Not seeing people permits us to imagine them with every perfection.

We’re all damaged in our own way. Nobody’s perfect. I think we’re all somewhat screwy. Every single one of us.
