    Three simple rules in life:

      “People will try to tell you that all of the great opportunities have been snapped up. In reality, the world changes every second, blowing new opportunities in all directions, including yours.” ~ Ken Hakuta

        “Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.” ~ Ella Jane Fitzgerald

          “Words have special powers. The power to create smiles or frowns. The power to generate laughs or tears. The power to lift up or put down. The power to motivate or de-motivate. The power to teach good or evil. The power to express love or hate. The power to give or take. The power to heal or harm. Choose your words carefully.” ~ A.D. Williams

            “Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking. ” ~ William B. Sprague

              "For every dark night, there's a brighter day." ~ Tupac Shakur

                “If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.” ~ Napoleon Hill

                  “When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” ~ Helen Keller

                    “Life to me is the greatest of all games.  The danger lies in treating it as a trivial game, a game to be taken lightly, and a game in which the rules don’t matter much.  The rules matter a great deal.  The game has to be played fairly or it is no game at all.  And even to win the game is not the chief end.  The chief end is to win it honorably and splendidly.” ~ Sir Ernest Shackleton

                      No Excuses.

                        “The moment there is suspicion about a person’s motives, everything he does becomes tainted.”  ~ Mahatma Gandhi

                          Don't be in such a hurry to condemn a person because he doesn't do what you do, or think as you think.  There was a time when you didn't know what you know today." ~ Malcom X

                            "Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world." ~ Nelson Mandela

                              "Don't fear failure... In great attempts it is glorious even to fail." ~ Bruce Lee

                                “We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient characteristic of life is its urgency, ‘here and now’ without any possible postponement. Life is fired at us point-blank.” ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

                                  "Live a good, honourable life.  Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time." ~ Dalai Lama

                                    "You are more than your thoughts, your body, or your feelings. You are a swirling vortex of limitless potential who is here to shake things up and create something new that the universe has never seen." ~ Dr. Richard Bartlett

                                      In the end it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away.

                                        “If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down.” ~ Mary Pickford
