“A transformational lifestyle is when a person can change the pain in their life into power, messiness into meaningfulness, complacency into completion, victimization into victory and tragedy into triumph.”
Lisa J. Morris

“Are our lives like car-worn ruts
In the face of the ground
Created through habitual use
And so set in place that they dictate
An unalterable course of drudgery,
Complaints, and same 'ol same 'ol,
Which if bucked threatens our security?

That is one long sentence, isn't it?
You can change it.”
Mark LeClair DeGange
