“No matter what horrible circumstances we may face in our lives, we must never lose hope, for losing hope is the beginning of our own self defeat.”

“Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, we will never lose our value in God’s eyes.”

“There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.'No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster.”

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”

“We don't miss what we never had, but we miss terribly things we almost had. And we miss things we used to have most of all. Through we hope and pray for our relationships, our looks, and our lives to improve, having more also means having more to lose.”

“As we lose ourselves in the service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness.”
