“I’m utterly convinced that the key to lifelong success is the regular exercise of a single emotional muscle: gratitude.”
Geoffrey James

“But one thing I’ve learned is that the minute I start fixating on what I don’t have — time, money, a child I can send to camp for the summer, central air conditioning — I just feel that much hotter and put-upon, and those bad feelings seem to attract extra obstructions to my day.”
Marie Myung-Ok Lee

Barack Obama
“I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting.”
Barack Obama

Rachel Naomi Remen
“The willingness to consider possibility requires a tolerance of uncertainty.”
Rachel Naomi Remen

Cecil Beaton

Cecil Beaton
