wisdom

I thought myself sufficiently shrewd to make whatever decisions I wanted to make, and then to be able to sufficiently steer those decisions away from the rather dark and nasty places they would naturally take me. And I stand oddly perplexed that suddenly everything around me is dark and nasty.

The brave with all of their weaknesses are better than the cowardly with all of their strengths.

Stand tall and be proud. Realize confidence is charismatic and something that is something money can't buy, it radiates from within you.

Project a confident image through good body posture.

Your image is your brand and you have only one opportunity to make that first impression. Choose to make a positive first impression.

Wander around wonder for awhile and awaken wisdom within.

Control is an illusion that you must give up.

Forgiveness is a skill gained by those willing to change.

Taking care of yourself will take care of more than yourself.

This town, this country, this world, is full to the brim with clever people, and just look at it. Never been in such awful shape. Clever people don't give a damn about anybody but themselves. Too busy being clever. The world doesn't need anymore clever people. It needs people with wisdom.

Avoiding our pain is needlessly exhausting. Pain can not be killed. When we attempt to bury our pain, it rises up from the grave of our emotions, haunting us, until we acknowledge its presence. We can heal our pain when we allow it to move through us.
