Not all days will bring me sunshine,
so I will rejoice also for the rain;
Not every endeavor will be a success,
but I will savor the victories I achieve;
Not all dreams I dream will be mine,
but in time new dreams will fill my heart,
and as from a star
those hopes will propel me forward
doing everything the best way I know I can…
Thus, our Mission was not a command given preemptorily by an unloving Creator to a reluctant slave without a vote, but was a task jointly designed by us both, in which as fast as the great Creator said, “I wish” our hearts responded, “Oh, yes”. – What Color is Your Parachute
“Faith is taking the first step even if you don’t see the whole staircase.”

By not trying and risking the possibility of failing, we make sure that we at least have our dreams left with us. The problem with that however, is that we are indeed left with nothing else but dreams.
But I’m afraid that it would all be a disappointment, so I prefer just to dream about it.
– The Alchemist
