We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history. ↗
My moods change in the blink of the eye. Call me a tomboy, I'll punch you in the guts. Call me emo, I'll cry. Call me sarcastic, I'll show you my middle finger. It's long and pretty. I think you'll like it. Call me a jock, I'll spike a volleyball into your face [SIXPACK! I win] Call me a bully, I'll tease you. Call me crazy, I'll cackle... and turn inside out... I can do that. Call me competitive, I'll say, 'Your face is competitive'. I win. Call me tall, I'll nod and say you are correct. Call me a muso, I'll make a song about you... an insulting one. Call me a nerd, I'll hack into your computer and send *censored* emails to all your relatives. Call me a bitch, I'll call you one back. Don't try to put me into a group. I'm happier if you just accept me for all my different personalities. ↗
I married somebody who likes the way I look. If I changed my hair every year, and I reinvented myself in time-honored pop fashion, I think understandably the person I'm married to would grow slightly sick of me. ↗
There are two different ways of being a person. One of these precedes the change of heart, and the other follows it. The first is fearful, anxious, resentful, and alienated from other people; the second, open resonant with others, buoyant, straightforward, and secure. To the extent that we live the second way, we care about others. We do not see them merely in terms of our own interests, as helping or hindering us. They are real to us; we are as sensitive to their feelings and hopes and needs as we are to our own. On the other hand, when we feel alienated, we engross ourselves in our own agenda. We pursue wealth, power, personal perfection, pleasure, distraction, or some other protection from emotional pain. We divide people into two categories-- those who will help us in our self-seeking projects and those who won't, and the latter we fear or hate as our rivals or enemies. We use people or abuse them. We look at people guardedly and stand ready to resent them whenever they cross us. Their own hopes and needs aren't real to us. ↗
In the midst of such indescribable splendor, I am faced both by my insignificance and the significance of choices I have and will make. We are all programmed, though we insist otherwise most times, to seek approval for our very existence, forsaking our peace of mind for what sits well with everyone's implicit or expressed consent, when our years, 20 or 93 declares in no uncertain terms that freedom to decide and steadfast courage to hold no one accountable for (the) ensuing bliss or sorrow but ourselves is the most fulfilling emancipation of all. ↗
Champions are made and not born. Champion’s feat are acquired and not inherited, earned and not transferred, attained and not deposited ↗

Failure is not fatal nor that you are finished but the result of unfinished product waiting to be reproduced, reprocessed and polished. Failure is that you have learned your omissions, mistakes or what you did not do right or well at the last attempt. You can transform failure into a fortune by dealing with what went wrong. Failure is only a product of uncorrected mistakes. ↗
