From one of the recovery chips I carry in my pocket that my GF gave to me: When you come to the edge of all you know you must believe in one of two things: There will be earth upon which to stand, or you will be given wings. It feels good to have that much faith.

In this moment, you have a choice. And you have all that is necessary to follow that choice. In this moment you can choose to benefit from a lifetime of learning, experience, dreams and longings. All that has brought you to this day is yours to make use of in fulfilling your best possibilities. -Ralph Marston |

A friend of mine has this quote on his desk: "What you would do if you knew you could not fail?" Not to sound sappy, but that has really changed my life. And, honestly, I've failed at a ton of things, but you learn from it and grow stronger and in the end, when you can control or eliminate fear, you are free. |

This was a great post to read. Some really good stuff to start the weekend. I am a party girl so the weekends can be tough for me. They have been ok lately. But I am getting bored so reading this made me know I will be ok this weekend.

| The Serenity Prayer God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference. My favorite part is the second line "the courage". It doesn't matter if you are religious or not. Once you have that, anything is possible! Thanks chi!! Love, butterfly19 (SP)
