Do not be afraid of those who are smart or clever.

Do not be afraid of those who are foolish or ignorant.

Be afraid of those who smart and foolish and those who are clever and ignorant.

The greatest gift you can give someone is to help them feel wanted, to be needed, to belong. Show them you are grateful for them and they will always feel connected. Show your gratitude and change their life.

If we are dedicated to the study of virtue…

If we are focused on learning true principles…

If we are committed to understanding truth…

We won’t have the time or the desire to be unvirtuous, or morally corrupt, or misguided.

If you do not understand it, you cannot hear it. It is impossible to hear something we do not understand. We can learn, we can be humble, we can search, we can be curious and then with the right mindset, the right questions we can begin to understand and then we can start to hear.

Beware as envy too quickly turns to hatred.

Time expands when…

you love.

you care.

you learn.

you serve.

Imagination without beauty turns to waste.

Beauty without humility turns to waste.

Humility without strength turns to waste.

Strength without courage turns to waste.

Courage without kindness turns to waste.

Kindness without truth turns to waste.

Truth without imagination turns to waste.

Sometimes things just work out. They do.

Sometimes things just don’t work out. They don’t.

We always can have hope and take action, that doesn’t change. It won’t.

In fourteen years you can create magic.

If fourteen years you can find peace.

In fourteen years you can love more than you thought possible.

In fourteen years you can triumph.

In fourteen years you can feel complete.

In fourteen years you can find your purpose.

In fourteen years you can imagine eternity.

In fourteen years you can become worthy of their love.

 

Happy Anniversary Meu Amor, so glad we met 14 years ago.

Sharp edges are useful. They protect, they can be beautiful, they encourage caution. They can also be harmful if not paid attention to. Notice the sharp edges, but do not judge them, they are just doing their job.
