" When you have been through things in life you learn from them, rise above them and learn what is worth it and what isn't.

"There is no respect between the souls of two individuals if their minds can't trust each other and there is no trust between them if their hearts can't accept the truth of each other."
Written in 2014 by Anuj Somany --- India

Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire, which transcends everything."
Napoleon Hill




"The most used excuse ever: "I CAN'T". It's an easy out. Basically it is a forfeit without even trying. The truth is that when you say, "I CAN'T", you don't want it bad enough. The effort that you will have to put into it outweighs the outcome. Most people will agree with you and let you go about your business. It's up to you to decide that you CAN and WILL. Together you will do the impossible."

" Consider your own life - how many times a day does some situation pop up that leads to moments of frustration and anxiety? Surrendering your head to your heart in those moments will lead you to balance and fulfillment. As you listen to your spirit, peace follows. So follow your spirit. Build your foundation in your heart. Love must be your innermost and spontaneous response towards every person you encounter. Say to yourself inside, 'I just love.' Use these words as a key to start the engine running in your heart and watch life brighten with new love and understanding. Surrender to your new awareness and let love unfold the purpose of creation to you."
Sara Paddison --- Submitted by Lauren Covington



" I've finally come to understand that whatever happens, all those stumbling blocks, all these problems, have nothing to do with real happiness. Happiness is facing yourself and learning to love what you see, flaws and all. It's taking enjoyment just from the process of being human."

" Take risks ... be willing to put your mind and your spirit, your time and your energy, your stomach and your emotions on the line. To search for a safe place, to search for an end to a rainbow, is to search for a place that you will hate once you find it. The soul must be nourished along with the bank account and the resume. The best nourishment for any soul is to create your own risks."
