school you-choose personal-experiences
You choose, you live the consequences. Every yes, no, maybe, creates the school you call your personal experience.
problem carrie
Every problem in your life carries a gift inside it.
choices design made
We design our lives through the power of our choices. We feel most helpless when we've made choices by default, when we haven't designed our lives on our own.
law-of-attraction matter imagine
No matter how qualified you are, you won't reach a better life until you imagine it.
love two people
Next to God, love is the word most mangled in every language. The highest form of regard between two people is friendship, and when love enters, friendship dies.
heart choices world
By your choice dwell you now in the world which you have created. What you hold in your heart shall be true, and what you most admire, that shall you become.
next masters artisans
You're master of what you've lived, artisan at what you're living, amateur at what's next to live.
perfection heaven swamps
If perfection is stagnation, then Heaven is a swamp.
dream
Your harshest truths are dreams, and your gentlest dreams are true.
crazy silly ideas
Silly ideas, worth the admission price in smiles, but they're true. Is high-energy physics interesting because it's true or because it's crazy?
blood knowing drug
A drug for everything is madness. Legal or not, prescribed or not, over-counter under-counter bought for blood on street-corners-every pill separates us from knowing our own completion and from being taught by what's true.
running truth dark
Every step in every proud life is a run from safety to the dark, and the only thing to trust is what we think is true.
two answers world
Part One: I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live my life in a way that will make me happy. Part Two: Everybody else is free to do whatever they feel like doing, for a living. Part Three: Responsible is Able to Respond, able to answer for the way we choose to live. There's only one person we have to answer to, of course, and that is ourselves.
years choices guarantees
A tiny change today brings us to a dramatically different tomorrow. There are grand rewards for those who pick the high hard roads, but those rewards are hidden by years. Every choice is made in the uncaring blind, no guarantees from the world around us.
