“When you realize that no one else on this earth can be like you,---that no other soul can know the beauty, sorrow, light, and darkness you alone are given to see—then you will no longer want to be like anyone else on this earth. You will, at last, be the fearless individual your heart of hearts called you to be.”~~Guy Finley, “The Courage to Be Free”

Stability
"What will see me through the next 20 years (and I am less sure of those 20 than I was of 'forever') is my knowledge that even in the face of the sweeping away of all that I assumed permanent, even when the universe made it quite clear to me that I was mistaken in my certainties, in my definitions, I did not break. The shattering of my sureties did not shatter me. Stability comes from inside, not outside...." ~Lucille Clifton
