"Imagine How Important Death Must Be To Have A Prerequisite Such As Life" I am living life to the fullest, to the best that I know how. "To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."-Ralph Waldo Emerson. Many years ago, a special friend of mine emailed me a quote, that to this day, I still live by. "When you are willing to be vulnerable, you have nothing to defend. You do not need to apologize, explain yourself, or put distance between yourself and others. You accept yourself as you are. You do not try to live up to an image of perfection so others will think better of you. You stop feeling inferior or superior to others. You are aware of the strength that comes from letting others see that you are not perfect. You recognize that you are Lovable, Worthy, and a Wonderful person just as you are. When you are able to be vulnerable, you let go of pride so you can create more love between yourself and others. If someone seems hurt or angry with you, you heal the relationship by asking yourself and the other person how you might change the way you offer love. You are willing to look at yourself honestly, admit when you have been unloving, and extend an offer of peace. You examine what thoughts, beliefs, and feelings separate you from others, and you are willing to change them." - Sanaya Roman. When it comes down to it, I believe that in life, everything happens for a reason. I take every harsh experience as a lesson learned. I’ve learned to love myself. I’ve learned that ultimately, I am the most important person in my life. "With ordinary talent and extraordinary perseverance, all things are attainable."
