No other person ever has, or ever will have, the unique blend of talents, strengths, and perspective that you have.
The unvarnished truth is that almost all the people you meet feel themselves superior to you in some way, and a sure way to their hearts is to let them realize in some subtle way that you recognize their importance, and recognize it sincerely.
With everything that has happened to you, you can either feel sorry for yourself or treat what has happened as a gift. Everything is either an opportunity to grow or an obstacle to keep you from growing. You get to choose.
The loving person is a person who abhors waste – waste of time, waste of human potential. How much time we waste. As if we were going to live forever.
