*something good to remember: when things seem unbearably awful and dark and hopeless, take a step back and view things from the perspective of eternity... or from the perspective of your life as a whole. Even the darkest moments tend to work themselves out with time. Always remember that.

"Twixt the optimist and the pessimist
the difference is droll:
The optimist sees the doughnut
but the pessimist sees the hole."

-McLandburgh Wilson

"Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars."
-Henry Van Dyke

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity.... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow."
-Melodie Beattie


"Whatever you decide to do in life, just be passionate about it . . . Don't be intimidated by competition, for success is sweeter and failure less bitter when you have given everything. You have to be true to yourself-- it's your life. You are the masters of your destiny, and passion, not pedigree, will win in the end." -Jon Bon Jovi


"Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy."
~found in Old Saint Paul's Church, Baltimore, dated 1692.
