I love connecting with people who have been through the fire and come out stronger and wiser. Using their experiences to inspire and empower others. Those are my people.

If the universe does consist of a battle between the devil and God, the final analysis should conclude that religion would have been the devil__ most brilliant move and science, God__.

Great changes in our society are always inspired and set in motion by one person. Be that person today.

From warm meals, to daily exercise, to healthcare; one can't help but wonder how our society would be different if tended to the elderly as we do to our imprisoned.

Even though she would dream of love, respect, and unfettered romance... it was a cyclical dilemma in her life that she seemed to be most attracted to poisonous men.

Don't look for society to give you permission to be yourself.

When forever becomes a place...when forever ceases to be just a word_ when it ceases to be just a measurement of time_but instead becomes a place where soul mates can dance to the song in their hearts... that is a reflection of true love.

God is the name we give to the science we don't understand. Science is the name we give to the God we don't understand.

In moments of prayer, people tend to pose as a critic and point out percieved flaws in God's art.

I'm not crying because of you you're not worth it. I'm crying because my delusion of who you were was shattered by the truth of who you are.

God didn__ give fear a body. God gave love a body.

No matter what the cause, God is only as willing as you are.

We must transcend the illusion that money or power has any bearing on our worthiness as children of God.

Don't be so quick to count out the teenagers. Some of the world's greatest changes, brilliant poetry, and innovations have come from the teenage mind.

There is nothing better for your family than for you to be at your best, for you to be at your own peace, for you to be showing them in every way who you are, and what you stand for.

Do Something!I was sitting on a plane after a long, tiring business trip. I was a bit grouchy and irritable because the rigorous schedule I had made for myself left me exhausted. Looking to not talk to the person next to me and simply endure the flight, I decided to open my newspaper and read about what was happening in the world. As I continued to read, it seemed that everywhere I looked there were stories of injustice, pain, suffering, and people losing hope. Finally, fueled by my tired, irritable state, I became overcome with compassion and frustration for the way things were. I got up and went to the bathroom and broke down.With tears streaming down my face, I helplessly looked to the sky and yelled to God. __od, look at this mess. Look at all this pain and suffering. Look at all this killing and hate. God, how could you let this happen? Why don__ you do something?__ust then, a quiet stillness pacified my heart. A feeling of peace I won__ ever forget engulfed my body. And, as I looked into my own eyes in the mirror, the answer to my own question came back to me_ __teve, stop asking God to do something. God already did something, he gave you life. Now YOU do something!

Parental Alienation is an emotional act of violence that is aimed at an adult, but critically wounds a child.

One of life's great challenges is getting out of your own way after a divorce or breakup... Heartache and anger make you feel like enemies, but your children need you to be a team. Unfortunately, few rise to this challenge, and the children pay an emotional debt they did not incur.
