Courage
standing for what you believe in, regardless of the odds against you, and the pressure that tears at your resistance,.....means courage
courage is not the absence of fear
but rather the idea that something
is more important than fear
love
Love, like a river, will cut a new path
whenever it meets an obstacle
You know you are in love
when you see the world in her eyes,
and her eyes everywhere in the world.
- David Levesque –
Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together...and i knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home...the only real home I'd ever known. I was just taking her hand to help her out of her car. It was like...magic.
~Sleepless in Seattle
Love is a decision not an emotion or feeling,
that if made from the heart will outlast anything...
- Raul and Samantha Juarez -
I just want to hold your hand
and have the courage to
never let go
Dreams
A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown.
The dream was always running ahead of me. To catch up, to live for a moment in unison with it, that was the miracle.
Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.
It is amazing that our souls--our eternal essences,
with all their hopes and dreams and visions of an
eternal world--are contained within the temporal bodies.
No wonder suffering is part of the human condition.
--Marion Woodman from the essay Soul Moments,
Self-esteem must be earned! When you dare to dream, dare to follow that dream, dare to suffer through the pain, sacrifice, self-doubts, and friction from the world, you will genuinely impress yourself. --Dr. Laura Schlessinger
