"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
~ Mark Twain
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
When we are very young, we are limited by the outside world, determined by the groups we belong to, also by other people. With time, we begin to observe life more and discover the truth about ourselves, we know more and more who we are and what we want. Life becomes real, takes on its proper meaning and shape, it's seen not as a collection of isolated scenes, but as a whole. Only then we can guide it properly and be happy.

We are surrounded by a lot of beauty, it is enough to open the eyes of the heart to see it. However, everything has an end and ends in the same place, like the leaves detached from the stem that made them green, they take their last breath, trying to stay alive, but invariably die...

,,Those who love you are not fooled by mistakes you have made or dark images you hold about yourself. They remember your beauty when you feel ugly; your wholeness when you are broken; your innocence when you feel guilty and your purpose when you are confused.” - Alan Cohen
,,Don't tell me that life doesn't change you, that you're always the same person. Disappointments change you, bad things change you, people change you. And life changes and one thing is clear, today I was not the same as yesterday and tomorrow I will definitely not be the same as today..." ~Susan Randall
