Mark Twain

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heal that crushed it..

Adventure isn’t hanging on a rope off the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply to the day to day obstacles of life — facing new challenges, seizing new opportunities, testing our resources against the unknown and in the process, discovering our own unique potential. –John Amatt organizer and participant in Canada’s first successful expedition to the summit of Mt Everest.

When ever I feel afraid

I hold my head erect

And whistle a little tune

So no one will suspect

I’m afraid…

The result of this deception

Is very strange to tell

For when I fool the people I fear

I fool myself as well.

Song from: The King and I by Rogers and Hammerstein

If you want one year of prosperity

Grow grain

If you want ten years of prosperity

Grow trees

If you want one hundred years of prosperity

Grow people

Chinese Proverb

Achieving goals by themselves will never
make us happy in the long term;
it’s who you become,
as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals,
that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.

-Tony Robbins
