    With silence and tears”

    I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn
    “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
    Marilyn Monroe

    Elizabeth Gilbert
    “People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

    A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

    A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”
    Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

    John Lennon
    “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”
    John Lennon

    Fred Rogers
    “When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.”
    Fred Rogers

    Jewel
    “Hands

    If I could tell the world just one thing
    It would be that we're all ok
    And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
    and useless in times like these
    I won't be made useless
    I won't be idled with despair
    I'll gather myself around my faith
    for light does the darkness most fear

    My hands are small, I know,
    but they're not yours, they are my own
    but they're not yours, they are my own
    and I am never broken

    Poverty stole your golden shoes
    but it didn't steal your laughter
    And heartache came to visit me
    but i knew it wasn't ever after
    We will fight, not out of spite
    for someone must stand up for what's right
    'cause where there's a man who has no voice
    there ours shall go singing

    My hands are small, I know,
    but they're not yours, they are my own
    but they're not yours, they are my own
    and I am never broken

    In the end only kindness matters
    In the end only kindness matters

    I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
    I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
    I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

    My hands are small, I know,
    but they're not yours they are my own
    but they're not yours they are my own
    and I am never broken

    My hands are small, i know,
    but they're not yours they are my own
    but they're not yours they are my own
    and I am never broken
    We are never broken

    We are God's eyes
    God's hands
    God's mind
    We are God's eyes
    God's hands
    God's heart
    We are God's eyes
    We are God's hands
    We are God's eyes”
    Jewel

    Sri Chinmoy
    “I am very happy
    Because I have conquered myself
    And not the world.
    I am very happy
    Because I have loved the world
    And not myself.”

    Fred Rogers
    “It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
    A beautiful day for a neighbor.
    Would you be mine?
    Could you be mine?...

    It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood,
    A neighborly day for a beauty.
    Would you be mine?
    Could you be mine?...

    I've always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
    I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

    So, let's make the most of this beautiful day.
    Since we're together we might as well say:
    Would you be mine?
    Could you be mine?
    Won't you be my neighbor?

    Won't you please,
    Won't you please?
    Please won't you be my neighbor?”
    Fred Rogers
