“I wish I could've lived my life without making any wrong turns. I wish I could have lived in a kind world. Without anxiety. Without fear. Without hurting other people. Without being hurt myself. Only doing the right things. I wish I could have followed the shortest path to the kind world I wished for.
"That's wrong." "That's stupid." When it comes to other people's lives you can say that kind of irresponsible dreck as much as you want.
I wish I could've lived my life without making any wrong turns. But that's impossible. A path like that doesn't exist. We fail. We trip. We get lost. We make mistakes. And little by little, one step at a time we push forward. It's all we can do. On our own two feet. Even if we get a little banged up. Someday, we'll reach something. We'll reach someone. We pray. Come on. It's time to start walking.”
― Natsuki Takaya, Fruits Basket, Vol. 21

“In this world, Daisy, we are tiny. We can’t always win and we can’t always be happy. But the one thing that we can always do is try. There will always be Trashcan Johnsons”—a twitch of a smile crossed Daisy’s face—“ and you can’t change that. But you can change how she makes you feel.”

Daisy wasn't convinced. "How?"

"By climbing this tree with me."

It was the scariest thing Daisy had ever done. But somewhere before they reached the top a strange thing happened. Daisy's fear flew away like feathers in the world. At the bottom of the tree she was tiny, and the tree an invincible giant. At the top, the tree was still huge, but tiny though she was, she had climbed it.”

“Every closed door was a mercy, every delay a setup. What didn’t choose you wasn’t qualified to carry you. No losses—just divine edits. Don’t mourn what couldn’t see you; it wasn’t assigned to carry your glory. Don’t chase what can’t carry your calling. Shake the dust, fix your crown, silence the noise, and walk forward like the future already knows your name. You’re not losing—you’re being refined for the reveal. This is not your ending—it’s your unveiling. Greater is not coming… it’s already in motion.


Let’s GO!!!!”
― Dr. Angela L. Hood
