I just wanna be an inspiration to people…that they can get what they want if they really put their mind to it, and they can overcome anything.

“Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.” - Theodore Roosevelt
Being nice should never be perceived as being weak. It’s not a sign of weakness, it’s a sign of courtesy, manners, grace, a woman’s ability to make everyone feel at home, and it should never be construed as weakness.
Things end. People leave. And you know what? Life goes on. Besides, if bad things didn’t happen, how would you be able to feel the good ones?
When spring came, even the false spring, there were no problems except where to be happiest. The only thing that could spoil a day was people and if you could keep from making engagements, each day had no limits. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.

Stardust by Neil Gaiman

He stared up at the stars: and it seemed to him then that they were dancers, stately and graceful, perfomrming a dance almost infinite in its complexity. He imagined he could see the very faces of the stars; pale, they were, and smiling gently, as if they had spent so much time above the world, watching the scrambling and the joy and the pain of the people below them, that they could not help being amused every time another little human believed itself the center of its world, as each of us does.

I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It’s all a question of how I view my life.

The big lesson in life, baby, is never be scared of anyone or anything.
