My heart is still pounding!

All Sunshine

You want always sunshine and a good time; but remember, all sunshine makes a desert.

The best of what you've got

Jack Layton had taken his son out on the water to teach him to sail on a day when there was no wind and he said:
“You can wait forever for perfect conditions … or you can make the best of what you’ve got”
Jack Layton 1950 - 2011

Keep Going

Keep going

When you have a long way to go, keep going. When you’ve almost reached the goal, keep going.

Success is achieved by those who simply do whatever it takes to keep going. All it ever takes, is taking the next step.

When you’re frustrated, make note of your frustration and keep going. When you’re tired and weary, take time out for a little rest, and then keep going.

The real joy is in the journey, so give yourself the joy of making that journey. Pick yourself up, again and again, and keep going.

You know full well that you can do it, so do it. Remind yourself why you’ve chosen to get there, and keep going.

You are a bundle of beautiful and unique possibilities. Keep going, and bring the best of them to life.
