And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more? —Theodor Seuss Geisel

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e0c7978>
MOTIVATION
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e0f1098>
PERSISTENCE
You have to know what you want to get. But when you know that, let it take you. And if it seems to take you off the track, don't hold back because perhaps that is instinctively where you want to be. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e11d6c0>
SPREAD YOUR WINGS
I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e14cfd8>
MAKING A DIFFERENCE

TRUE BEAUTY

OVERCOMING
When you are listening to somebody, completely, attentively, then you are listening not only to the words, but also to the feeling of what is being conveyed, to the whole of it, not part of it. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e2a0790>
LISTENING
Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e2bd020>
KINDNESS
A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths; feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit; recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e309cb8>
FRIENDSHIP
Your body is the harp of your soul and it is yours to bring forth sweet music from it or confused sounds. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e331100>
HEALTH
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!" #<Author:0x00007f4c5e35bae0>
FRIENDSHIP
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e3776a0>
GRATITUDE
Let our hearts be stretched out in compassion toward others, for everyone is walking his or her own difficult path. #<Author:0x00007f4c5e3931e8>
