Sometimes the strongest people are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors and fight battles nobody knows about.


Be silly.  Be honest.  Be kind.


Be kind whenever possible.  And, it is always possible.


When I was a kid I wanted to be older.  This is not what I expected.


Every day may not be good but there's something good in every day.


God is fully aware that you and I are not perfect.  Let me add, God is also fully aware that the people you think are perfect are not.  And yet, we spend so much time and energy comparing ourselves to others.  Usually comparing our weaknesses to their strengths.  As a result, we never celebrate our good efforts because they seem to be less than what someone else does.


Close some doors.  Not because of pride, incapacity, or arrogance, but simply, because they no longer lead somewhere.


What's coming will come and we'll meet it when it does.


Sometimes the best revenge is to ignore them and be super happy instead.


I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath.  Scared to rock the boat and make a mess.  So I sat quietly, agreed politely.  I guess that I forgot I had a choice.


Your dream doesn't have an expiration date.  Take a deep breath and try again.


Why is it when you do something terrific, nine times out of ten you're all alone, but when you screw up really big, the whole world is watching?


Don't count the days.  Make the days count.


My comfort in my suffering is this, Your promise preserves my life.


Right now, someone you haven't met is out there wondering what it would be like to meet someone like you.


Don't spend another minute being angry about yesterday.


We don't meet people by accident.  They are meant to cross our path for a reason.


I can't help you fix yourself, but at least I can say I tried.  I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life.


Who says I can't be free from all the things that I used to be?


Now people say they'll stand beside you.  They swear they'll never leave.  But when the rain started falling you know it only fell on me.  And it was hard to keep believing in myself when all I felt was so much pain and guilt and shame I couldn't even ask for help.


Even the best fall down sometimes


It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise that moves us along.


Man, it's been a long night.  Just sittin' here trying not to look back....


If fear hasn't killed me yet, then nothing will.
