Don’t be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart. ROY T. BENNETT
“Life has tried to break me,
the wounds have not yet healed.
But I am not a victim,
never been and never will.
My heart was born a warrior,
each day I'm fighting still.
I am everything
the darkness could not kill.”

“Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.”

“I felt sad.
I felt cold.
I felt hurt.
I felt forsaken and lonely.
I felt doubtful and hesitant.
I felt scared and deeply worried.
I felt different, unknown, and unwelcome.
I felt empty and woefully neglected.
I felt weak and intimidated.
I felt withdrawn and shy.
I felt utterly hopeless.
Then you held my hand,
and I felt better.”
