Listening is a magnetic and strange thing, a creative force. The friends who listen to us are the ones we move toward. When we are listened to, it creates us, makes us unfold and expand. —Dr. Karl Augustus Menninger

Believe deep down in your heart that you're destined to do great things. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1eba9f8>
BELIEVE
Service is a smile. It is an acknowledging wave, a reaching handshake, a friendly wink, and a warm hug. It's these simple acts that matter most, because the greatest service to a human soul has always been the kindness of recognition. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1ed8c78>
CHARITY
Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside awakens. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1f06f10>
VISION
Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. Stop rushing. Don't be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally, know who you are. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1f28a20>

RESPONSIBILITY
It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1fb2018>
CONNECTING
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. #<Author:0x00007f1ae1fde528>

PERSEVERANCE
We are reminded how short life really is, and how we are just passing through. So, all the people you haven't told you love lately, tell them, and live your days like you mean it. #<Author:0x00007f1ae2067468>
LOVE
You don't have to accept the invitation to get angry. Instead, practice forgiveness, empathy and encouragement. #<Author:0x00007f1ae2093838>

PREPARATION
I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. There is no mistaking love…it is the common fiber of life, the flame that heats our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives. #<Author:0x00007f1ae213dea0>
