“Unfortunately, life does not come with a handbook or even a search engine to help us find all the answers. We must be true scientists from day one, experimenting, drawing conclusions, and reevaluating previous concepts. We can never be certain that we did any of it correctly, but at least we have tried.”

“Every single one of us has the potential to be a Rainbow Warrior. We can find ways to spread a little love, light, joy, and happiness on our paths. We can open our hearts and minds to the thinking of other people, listen honestly to what they have to say, acknowledge their right to their viewpoints, adjust our own viewpoint when new information becomes clear, and work to achieve common ground. Then, hopefully, like the first pale-colored rays appearing on the horizon, we will encourage others to join us and become a full circle of gloriously bent light.”

“All of us have mental health issues; some of us just fake sanity better.”

“Making a stew is like life itself: You gather together the resources you have available to you, toss them together, add in your own ideas, and let it simmer. But the 'make it or break it' part is the extra flavors you add. The seasonings of life are the moments of joy and laughter, the times you persevere, the giving and receiving of gifts and talents, the surprises that make you reevaluate, all those special times that keep life bright and daring.”
