“She stood in the storm, and when the wind did not blow her way, she adjusted her sails.”
Elizabeth Edwards

“... all things are possible if you are willing to put yourself on the line. You cannot stand back and hope for the best. You have to act.”
Elizabeth Edwards, Resilience: The New Afterword

“The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered...We know that. And yes, there are certainly times when we aren't able to muster as much strength and patience as we would like. It's called being human. But I have found that in the simple act of living with hope, and in the daily effort to have a positive impact in the world, the days I do have are made all the more meaningful and precious. And for that I am grateful.”
Elizabeth Edwards

“Nothing ever stay the same”
Elizabeth Edwards

“Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before. You can fight it, you can do nothing but scream about what you've lost, or you can accept that and try to put together something that's good.”
Elizabeth Edwards
