“How life teaches us, breaks us, rewards us, and tears us apart... how it lifts us up and brings us down... the wonder of life.”

“Isn't it the unexpected that teaches us the most?”

“I'm THAT complicated, mysterious, yet content with the "simple" things in life. Don't try to understand me; you won't figure me out. But you're free to like me the way I am.”

“I don't write for a living. I live to write.”

“Life brings simple pleasures to us every day. It is up to us to make them wonderful memories.”

“To be or not to be! Hamlet!! I beg to differ! How much more limiting could that question be? How much more restraining could it ever get? Do we only have two possible answers to a question? Do we only have two things to choose from? Are our options so restricted? Are we so grounded? Have we gone color blind? When did our retinas stop seeing the colors of a rainbow? Why do we print our experiences in duotone? In a game of multiple choice questions, how many answers could be correct? What number of choices do we have? Who gives us the options? When do we have to submit our selections? Who decides if we passed or failed?”

“It's how we survive the hurt in life that brings us strength and gives us beauty.”
