Sunday Inspiration: Perspective

Two thirds of what we see is behind our eyes.
—Chinese Proverb

Sunday Inspiration: Grief

Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.
—Jamie Anderson

Sunday Inspiration: Risk

A ship is safe in the harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.
—William G. T. Shedd

Genius begins great works; labor alone finishes them.

You might be the only “nice” someone experiences today. Don’t blow it.

Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person’s determination.
