We are all haunted by the shadows of our former selves.
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
"In every ending, there is a beginning waiting to be discovered."
Do not try to change the outer world; change your inner world, and the outer world will adjust itself.
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
I don't think you should ever have to apologize for your excitement.
