My thoughts exactly…..

"The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position."

*Leo Buscaglia {1924-1998 American Lecturer & Author}

"If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for
most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month."

We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty,
some are dull, some have weird names,
and all are different colors....
but they all exist very nicely in the same box.

Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
- Confucius, BC 551-479, Chinese Ethical Teacher, Philosopher

"Self-acceptance comes from meeting life's challenges vigorously. Don't numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory."

*J. Donald Walters {American Author, Lecturer & Playwright}
