SONGS
  • I need a lot of improvement - Not even half way to destiny - But I'm a train that's moving - And everyday I'm picking up speed. ~Brandy - Camouflage
  • If you had started doing anything two weeks ago, by today you would have been two weeks better at it. ~John Mayer
  • You've got to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you've got, and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from mistakes, but never regret.
  • Run when you can, walk when you have to, crawl if you must, just never give up. ~Dean Karnazes
  • Make the least of all that goes and the most of all that comes. ~Sara Teasdale
  • Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
  • You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
  • Some people think it's holding on that makes us stronger; sometimes it's letting go.
  • Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world. ~Bishop Desmond Tutu
  • Be not afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still.
  • There is a wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life -- happiness, freedom, and peace of mind -- are always attained by giving them to someone else. ~Peyton Conway March
  • Grace means more than gifts. In grace something is transcended, once and for all overcome. Grace happens in spite of something; it happens in spite of separateness and alienation. Grace means that life is once again united with life, self is reconciled with self. Grace means accepting the abandoned one. Grace transforms fate into a meaningful vocation. It transforms guilt to trust and courage. The word grace has something triumphant in it. ~Yrjo Kallinen
  • Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. ~Groucho Marx
