“Much like the flower and bee, we as humans are part of nature and, in the same way, hardwired to serve. Whether we give of our time, money knowledge or guidance, we have an innate ability and desire to support others with our resources.”

“Hope does not mean turning a blind eye to reality or living in self-neglect. It is about accepting the situation as it is and deciding to find a better way to deal with it. It’s about showing up, even when you are afraid you may fail. It’s about working through the tough stuff, the painful stuff, and still carrying on because you know you are stronger than you think you are. But of course, hope alone is never enough. You have to apply focus and persistence.”

“Maintaining balance is a constant battle because life exists between polarities. Work and rest. Darkness and light. Hills and valleys. You cannot escape them. All are needed. The existence of one lends meaning to the other. There are, obviously, exceptions. But if we don’t convert exceptions into bad habits, we can achieve a balance over time. Having an insatiable drive is fine because it’s often transferable to all aspects of life. The challenge is to avoid turning this drive into an obsession.”
