Pontification

Everyone is doing the best they can with what they know.  No one wakes up in the morning and says 'Today I'm going to be the worst person possible.'

-Linda Giles

 

Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

Mark Twain

 

Every day is a new chance to choose.
 

Choose to change your perspective.
 

Choose to flip the switch in your mind. Turn on the light and stop fretting about with insecurity and doubt.
 

Choose to do your work and be free of distraction.
 

Choose to see the best in someone, or choose to bring out the worst in them.

Choose to be a laser beam, with focused intention, or a scattered ray of light that doesn't do any good. 

- Ishita Gupta

The most beautiful people are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.  These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.  Beautiful people do not just happen. 

- Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Brains can argue, but it takes heart to comfort.
