In order to be truly happy, you must live along with, and you must stand for something larger than yourself.
Nobody but you is responsible for your life. You are responsible for your life. What is your life? What is all life? What is every flower, every rock, every tree? Energy. And you're responsible for the energy you create for yourself, and you're responsible for the energy that you bring to others.
Become the change you want to see - those are words I live by.
Failure is a great teacher and, if you are open to it, every mistake has a lesson to offer.
Everyone has to learn to think differently, bigger, to open to possibilities.
Don't live your life to please other people.
Keeping a journal will change your life in ways that you'd never imagine.
Lessons often come dressed up as detours and roadblocks

Follow your passion. It will lead you to your purpose.
You become what you believe. And to believe that you are created by the power that's greater than yourself means anything is possible.
