A Simple Presence

"We encounter God in the ordinariness of life: not in the search for spiritual highs and extraordinary, mystical experiences but our simple presence in life."

-Brennan Manning

How Far Will You Go?

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these."

- George Washington Carver

It's Better To Know

"In love, it is better to know and be disappointed, than to not know and always wonder."

Life

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."

It's All In The Attitude

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
