You've just got to do the best that you can.
I pray to be like the ocean, with soft currents, maybe waves at times. More and more, I want the consistency rather than the highs and the lows.
If I die before my cat, I want a little of my ashes put in his food so I can live inside him.
I don't know anybody's road who's been paved perfectly for them, there are no manuals, you don't know what life has in store for you.
I've got Flossie dog, and she is great. She and I are still in love, 14 years. That's a relationship that works.
I have always been fond of recognizing the spiritual side of someone's personality. It's a very lovely concept.
Speaking of important things, there are so many battles right now that people are fighting for that it's overwhelming, but I am always in favor of people who crusade for the sake of people's hearts and their well-being. That is what is important.
My favorite thing about being a mom is just what a better person it makes you on a daily basis,
I've always loved butterflies, because they remind us that it's never too late to transform ourselves.
I think happiness is a choice. I believe luck is your attitude. It sounds like a really annoying bumper sticker. But there is such a great truth in that. You choose how you want to feel about what happens to you. I could have been a miserable failure. I haven't had anybody looking over me, and I've found my own way through optimistic exploration and fire-burning mistakes. I am a very happy person with an extraordinary life, so I must be doing a lot of things right. I really believe when you peel away the layers, the worlds is a beautiful place filled with beautiful people.
Sometimes get lost in the white noise of people's anger and being super adamant on one side or the other. And what fails to happen is that you actually aren't disseminating the information that you want to get across to these people.
There's something liberating about not pretending. Dare to embarrass yourself. Risk.
Oh, I love hugging. I wish I was an octopus, so I could hug 10 people at a time!
When I lay my head on the pillow at night I can say I was a decent person today. That's when I feel beautiful.
