"Don’t be disheartened by the forces of evil. Nothing can happen that God hasn’t allowed. Even resistance is all part of grand orchestration. The devil always has you right were God wants you."

"I believe in romance... In playfulness... In passion... In expressing feelings... In friendship... In all the ways love heals, nourishes, and transforms 'you' and 'me' into an 'us'."

"Fear can only grow in darkness. Once you face fear with light, you win."

"Life is too short to not kick fear in the ass and allow yourself to love again."

"With one kind gesture you can change a life. One person at a time you can change the world. One day at a time we can change everything."

"The path to freedom is illuminated by the bridges you have burned, adorned by the ties you have cut, and cleared by the drama you have left behind. Let go. Be free."

"Gratitude is nutrition for a living relationship."

"How would your life be different if...You could control the outcome of your day, your week, your year? Let today be the day...You embrace the truth that you DO have such control to label every event in your life, and create an agreement with reality that empowers you and propels you to greatness."

"I wish for you the wisdom to realize that you can let go of a past relationship without letting go of the lessons it taught you."
