“I believe fate, fate smiled,
And destiny laughed as she came to my cradle,
Know this child will be able,
Laughed as my body she lifted,
Know this child will be gifted,
With love, with patience, and with Faith,
She’ll make her way,
She’ll make her way…”

“Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping…waiting…and though unwanted…unbidden…it will stir…open its jaw and howl. It speaks to us…guides us…passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy if love…the clarity of hatred…and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion maybe we’d know some kind of peace…but we would be hollow…empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we’d be truly dead.”

“Live for today, but hold your hands open to tomorrow.
Anticipate the future and its changes with joy. There
is a seed of God’s love in every event, every unpleasant
situation in which you may find yourself.” —Barbara Johnson

“Guard within yourself that treasure kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness.”
