“If I should die, and leave you here awhile
Be not like others sore undone, who keep
Long vigils by the silent dust and weep.
For my sake, turn again to life, and smile,
Nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do
Something to comfort weaker hearts than thine.
Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine,
And I, perchance, may therein comfort you!”
― Mary Lee Hall

“Disappointments are to the soul what a thunderstorm is to the air.”
― Friedrich Schiller

“The most important thing in the life of every man and every woman is not that they should never fall along the way. The important thing is always to get back up, not to stay on the ground licking your wounds.”
― Pope Francis, The Name of God is Mercy

“There is nothing more practical than love. Love will determine how you spend your time. Love will determine what movies you watch. Love will determine what kinds of things you laugh at. Love will determine what kind of music you listen to. If we truly love Jesus, it has to change our choices.”
― Father Mike Schmitz
