"Nothing lasts forever; so live it up, drink it down, avoid the negativity, take chances and never regret because at one point it was what you wanted."

M. Scott Peck, The Road less Traveled

And a Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

“The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something.  That's the only thing that never fails.  You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honor trampled in the sewers of baser minds.  There is only one thing for it then — to learn.  Learn why the world wags and what wags it.  That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting.  Learning is the only thing for you.  Look what a lot of things there are to learn."

T.H. White, "The Once and Future King"

You were born with potential

Hello and Welcome back to the Quote of the Week, your weekly spiritual snack for mind, body & soul. Even though we are 3 weeks into the new year, I hope you still have that "positive expectation" of making it your best year ever!!!

“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” 

Henry David Thoreau
__________

A Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

"I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element.
It is my personal approach that creates the climate.
It is my daily mood that makes the weather.
I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous.
I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, 
I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. 
In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humainized or de-humanized. 
If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming." 

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

(I need to remember this more often!)
