“It is all too easy to give ourselves over to the traumas of the past -- allowing pain to define us. There is a medicine for that -- hope and perseverance. Light brings light. And no matter what we face there is one thing we can control: our outlook.

And when the weight of the past pulls us low we must find the strength to release it ... and finally give ourselves permission to start over.”
