No matter what else you have or do not have,
you have the beautiful experience of life.
No matter what may have happened before,
or what might come next,
you have this moment.

Now is when you can make it count.
Now is when you are connected
with unbounded opportunities
to make a positive difference.

Don't waste your time
complaining about what you lack or
Worrying about what you might lose.
Invest the best of what you have
in this moment to create new value.

If you choose to be annoyed or resentful,
you'll only drag yourself down.
Instead,
challenge yourself to be more positive
and effective than you've ever been,
right now.

Smile at life,
even when life has not smiled at you first.
Be the first one to initiate goodness,
and you'll be the first one
to benefit from that goodness.

You are here,
and there is nothing to fear.
Count your blessings,
and before you're finished counting
you'll have even more.

There is no moment like the present.

The man who will not execute his resolutions

when they are fresh upon him can have

no hope from them afterwards:

they will be dissipated,

lost, and perish in the hurry

and scurry of the world,

or sunk in the slough of indolence.

~Maria Edgeworth

All of us have unique talents and gifts.
No obstacle,
be it physical,
mental or emotional,
has the power to destroy
our innate creative energies.

~ Liane Cordes

In everyone's life,

at some time, our inner fire goes out.

It is then burst into flame by an encounter

with another human being.

We should all be thankful

for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

~Albert Schweitzer

"Keep your chin up

and you will see the clouds in the sky.

Keep your chin down

and all you will see is the dirt on the floor."

~Shelley L.Young

Those who are quite satisfied

sit still and do nothing;

those who are not quite satisfied

are the sole benefactors of the world.

~Walter Savage Landor
