January 1 is a beginning of a new year
One that I hope for you is full of cheer.
A year that brings all that you hope for
And may you find even more.

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

May the blessings of God find their way to you from every side. Good morning!

The more I look, the more I find the reasons why you’re the love of my life.

In living this way, we discover new opportunities for comfort and enjoyment. Where the younger person may have tossed and turned throughout a sleepless night, the older man or woman can possibly feel the pleasure that comes from lying on a good mattress, resting one’s weary bones and overcharged intellect, whether or not one sleeps throughout the hours of darkness.

It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve

But I discovered that people like me — they do, you know, if you like them — and then it was all right.

Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don’t fight them. Just find a new way to stand.

One of the best times for figuring out who you are & what you really want out of life? Right after a break-up.

Love: All my life I’ve heard of it, read about it, dreamed about it and cried about it. Now I’m sitting next to you, and I have found it.

“We’ll find out,” I said, trying to play the role that the Colonel had always played for me.
“Not tonight,” he answered. “Tonight, we’re gonna throw up a little, and then we are going to sleep through our hangover.”
“Don’t forget about Latin.”
“Right. Fucking Latin.”

I want you to discover my body with your tongue.

There’s no starting over without finding closure.

I wondered whether I could find a Great Perhaps here at all or whether I had made a grand miscalculation.

You’re trying to find it, aren’t you? I’m sure that inside your heart… you’re trying with all you might to find it on your own… the reason you were born. Because… because really… there might not be anyone who was born with a reason. I think that everyone might have to find one on their own. [in her head] A reason for being born… A reason that it’s okay to be alive… A reason to exist. [aloud] I think everyone might have to find it themselves… and decide for themselves. It could be your dreams… your job… or a person. …The reason you’re looking for… might be vague, unclear… and uncertain. [in her head] And you might lose it. [aloud] But as long as you’re alive…you have to keep searching for that reason. I’m searching too. And if I can… If I can, I want to find my reason… In someone else.

I’ll find strength in pain.

It’s up to you to find the beauty in even the ugliest days. Look around because there’s so much to be grateful for. Keep your head up!

People who discover their life purpose use their mental, emotional and creative energies to develop a skill, talent, or interest they love.

When you give yourself to something you genuinely love, it calls forth your spirit. That makes you happier and more fulfilled, and you feel in sync with your inner self.

What’s more, your everyday life takes on new meaning as you share your gift with the world…

God does have a specific plan for our lives, but it is not one that He expects us to figure out before we make a decision.

God calls you to make definitive choices, and He has a plan for each of you: to discover that plan and to respond to your vocation is to move toward personal fulfillment.

I don’t think anyone is born with a reason to live. It’s something you have to find for yourself.

But we knew what could be found out, and in finding out, she had made us closer – the Colonel and Takumi and me, anyway. And that was it. She didn’t leave me enough to discover her, but she left me enough to rediscover the Great Perhaps.

I don’t know what God has planned for me or you or anyone, but I do know that in darkness, you discover an indistinguishable light.

Discover your strengths and then hone them and be who you are meant to be.
