*There's an ancient Chinese proverb that says:
"The gem cannot be polished without friction; nor man perfected without trials."

*Climb up on some hill at sunrise. Everybody needs perspective once in a while, and you'll find it there.
-Robb Sagendorph

*Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
-Dr. Seuss

*You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
-Eleanor Roosevelt

I know, these are just words, and it's all easier said then done. I send hugs to you both!
