If you focus on the risks, they'll multiply in your mind and eventually paralyze you. You want to focus on the task, instead, on doing what needs to be done. ↗

Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to used during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course? Each of us has such a bank, it's name is time. Every morning, it credits you 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off at a lost, whatever of this you failed to invest to a good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against "tomorrow". You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness, and health. The clock is running. Make the most of today. ↗

The story I am writing exists, written in absolutely perfect fashion, some place, in the air. All I must do is find it, and copy it. ↗

Human beings sometimes find a kind of pleasure in nursing painful emotions, in blaming themselves without reason or even against reason. ↗

Real mothers don't just listen with humble embarrassment to the elderly lady who offers unsolicited advice in the checkout line when a child is throwing a tantrum. We take the child, dump him in the lady's cart, and say, "Great. Maybe you can do a better job." Real mothers know that it's okay to eat cold pizza for breakfast. Real mothers admit it is easier to fail at this job than to succeed. ↗

الحياة لا يعجبها تذمر الأحياء .. إنها ترشوهم بأشكال مختلفة ومتفاوتة من الرضى ومن القبول بالظروف الإستثنائية .. يحدث هذا للمنفي, والغريب والسجين, ويحدث مثله مثله للخاسر والمهزوم والمهجور. وكما تتعود العين شيئاً فشيئاً على العتمة المفاجئة يتعود هؤلاء على السياق الإستثنائي الذي فرضته عليهم الظروف .. وإذا تعود الواحد منهم على الإستثناء فإنه يراه طبيعياً بشكل من الأشكال. ↗
