“Sometimes resilience arrives in the moment you discover your own unshakeable goodness.”

“Sometimes you didn't really arrive at a conclusion about your life, you just discovered that you already had.”

“Sometimes it is good to have things happen to you outside of your control. There are parts of yourself you would never discover otherwise.”

“Peace of mind arrives the moment you come to peace with the contents of your mind.”

“The moment will arrive when you are comfortable with who you are, and what you are– bald or old or fat or poor, successful or struggling- when you don't feel the need to apologize for anything or to deny anything. To be comfortable in your own skin is the beginning of strength.”

“There are moments in your life when the big pieces slide and shift. Sometimes the big changes dong happen gradually but all at once. That's how it was for us. That was the day we discovered that friends can do things for you that your parents can't.”
