Using today to reflect, to reach within, to do my very best to appreciate so much of what I have, to be present with my daughter, and to allow myself to feel and express whatever is inside me at any given moment. In times of introspection I turn to poetry and quotes that strike a chord in me and feed my soul.
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
"And then my soul saw you and it kind of went ‘Oh, there you are. I’ve been looking for you.’" - Iain Thomas
“Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”
- Henry David Thoreau
“To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.” - Anatole France
“The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experiences.”
- Eleanor Roosevelt
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go.” - Dr. Seuss
