“Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you.”

“When you turn your back on hypocrisy and do nothing you don’t change the hearts of others you change yours.”

“Anger, resentment and jealousy doesn't change the heart of others-- it only changes yours.”

“You can have regret from yesterday, fear tomorrow, but peace today by sharing your heart’s deepest feelings. A life spent being fearful of showing your soul is a life not worth living.”

“There will always be someone willing to hurt you, put you down, gossip about you, belittle your accomplishments and judge your soul. It is a fact that we all must face. However, if you realize that God is a best friend that stands beside you when others cast stones you will never be afraid, never feel worthless and never feel alone.”

“God will take your story and use it for a greater purpose.”

“If you truly feel that self esteem and motivation have to happen first before you can make changes in your life, then we’ll probably be sharing walkers at a retirement home as we talk over what might have been.”
