So what do I do? What do we do? How do we move forward when we are tired and afraid? What do we do when the voice in our head is yelling that WE ARE NEVER GONNA MAKE IT?

Well, the first thing we do is take our brain out and put it in a drawer. Stick it somewhere and let it tantrum until it wears itself out.

The changes we make in life often happen when we have a degree of certainty. However, the pain of our past failures and the fears of our peers often fuel our uncertainty. This inability to predict the future is why people find themselves stuck and unable to move forward. They don't want to feel the emotions of failure. They prefer to talk themselves into settling for an "okay" life, rather than the life they really want. However, failure is a matter of perspective!

There is no happiness in regret, staying safe or settling for anything less than what you can have through action.— Shannon L. Alder

If there is anything certain in life, it is this. Time doesn't always heal. Not really. I know they say it does, but that is not true.

These small things are the agents of memory. They are the sharp needle points piercing the living fabric of your life.— Stephen Lee
Life, my children, isn't linear where the heart is concerned. It is filled with invisible threads that reach out from your past and into your future.

Your task is to weave them into a tapestry, one that tells the story of the time we shared.

For years I lived my life suspended, trapped by the past, unable to move into the future.

We can never go back. I know that now. We can go forward .We can find the love our hearts long for, but not until we let go grief about the love we lost long ago, when we were little and had no voice to speak the heart's longing. All the years of my life I thought I was searching for love I found, retrospectively, to be years where I was simply trying to recover what had been lost, to return to the first home, to get back the rapture of our first love. I was not really ready to love or be loved in the present. I was still mourning— Bell Hooks

"Your energy is liquid and hot. Even from a distance you burn, you scorch anyone who gets too close. You are wine on my tongue and honey in my veins, and I cannot get enough of you." He leaned forward and whispered into my ear. His warm breath sent shivers cascading over my body. "You intoxicate me, Lorelei McAlister. You will be my downfall.— Darynda Jones

It is impossible to stand upright when one plants his roots in the shifting sands of popular opinion and approval.

all of us

More than a building that houses books and data, the library has always been a window to a larger world— Barack Obama
a place where we've always come to discover big ideas and profound concepts that help move the American story forward ...
Libraries remind us that truth isn't about who yells the loudest, but who has the right information. Because even as we're the most religious of people, America's innovative genius has always been preserved because we also have a deep faith in facts.
