Priority

“Never make someone a priority when all you are to them is an option.”

FIRE

“Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.”

~  Ann Landers

CHARACTER

“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired and success achieved.” 

~Helen Keller

LOVE YOURSELF

“You could search the world far and wide to find someone more deserving of your love and affection than yourself, but you’ll never find that person. You yourself are more deserving of that love than anyone in the universe.”

~ Buddha

Humanity

” A human being is a part of the whole that we call the universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest – a kind of optical illusion of his consciousness. This illusion is a prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for only the few people nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature.” 

~ Albert Einstein

COURAGE

Courage_Natalie D. Garcia“Courage takes many forms. There is physical courage, there is moral courage. Then there is a still higher type of courage- the courage to brave pain, to live with it, to never let others know of it and to still find joy in life; to wake up in the morning with an enthusiasm for the day ahead.”                      ~ Howard Cosell
