People who have learned to be content (and from contentment comes happiness) realize that the things that happen outside of them do not control them. …If you know someone who is angry at the world, the best most loving thing you can do is to call them on it.
People who have control issues are usually trying to live a pain free life. (14)
“Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'.” (13) Viktor Frankl
We have to be willing to be afraid; to face our fear—often our deepest fears in order to actually accomplish almost anything meaningful in life. No matter what we want to accomplish, we have to be willing to move beyond comfort to fear. (44)
Most people are desperately insecure and in need of affirmation. (10) ~Dan Simmons, Pastor, New Community Baptist Church, Strongsville Ohio
Actions are not always words, but words are almost always actions. Choose both carefully. They either build relationships or they tear them down. Pretending that words are just words is a silly dodge. (33)
