I agree with this. Sometimes we take temporary breaks or make minor changes. That does not mean giving up on our decisions.
Antonio Dos Santos from White Plains,  JANUARY 5, 2017
I totally agree with this. You have to be willing to change...

No two leaves are alike, and yet there is no antagonism between them or between the branches on which they grow. #<Author:0x00007f129d063478>
EQUALITY
There’s something very freeing about losing the anchors that have always defined you. Frightening, sad, but exhilarating in a poignant way, as well. You’re free to float to the moon and evaporate or sink to the bottom of the deepest ocean. But you’re free to explore. Some people confuse that with drifting, I suppose. I like to think of it as growing. #<Author:0x00007f129d06df90>
SPREAD YOUR WINGS
If you get, give. If you learn, teach. #<Author:0x00007f129d078a58>
HELPING OTHERS
I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve. #<Author:0x00007f129d08b680>
SERVICE
You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it. #<Author:0x00007f129d45a8d8>
OVERCOMING
The purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open one. #<Author:0x00007f129d474d00>
EDUCATION
The wise do not buy into other people’s perceptions of who they are and what they are capable of. Instead, they bypass a person’s public persona and see who they are in their highest expression. When you see actions taken with integrity, instead of words only, you will then know a soul’s worth. #<Author:0x00007f129d487a18>
TRUE BEAUTY
Without commitment, you cannot have depth in anything, whether it's a relationship, a business or a hobby. #<Author:0x00007f129d50d4b0>
COMMITMENT
The final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands. #<Author:0x00007f129d518040>
RESPONSIBILITY
When someone steals another's clothes, we call them a thief. Should we not give the same name to one who could clothe the naked and does not? The bread in your cupboard belongs to the hungry; the coat unused in your closet belongs to the one who needs it; the shoes rotting in your closet belong to the one who has no shoes; the money which you hoard up belongs to the poor. #<Author:0x00007f129d52a9e8>
SHARING
Victory is in the quality of the competition, not just the final score. #<Author:0x00007f129d535578>
SPORTSMANSHIP
They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for. #<Author:0x00007f129d5468c8>
HOPE
Keep your face always toward the sunshine—and shadows will fall behind you. #<Author:0x00007f129d550dc8>
INSPIRATION
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong, because someday in your life, you will have been all of these. #<Author:0x00007f129d562b68>
COMPASSION
Love is friendship that has caught fire. #<Author:0x00007f129d56dae0>
LOVE
We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives. #<Author:0x00007f129d578cd8>
