People from the Past vs. Hope in the Future

“There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won’t anymore, and who always will. So don’t worry about people from your past, there’s a reason why they didn’t make it to your future.”

Choices that we DO and do not have

"It is not within our power to end all corruption - but we can CHOOSE not to be corrupt. It is not within our power to end all injustice - but we can advocate for what is right. We cannot change the course of the sea - but with every stream that we are able to re-route, we CAN and DO make a difference."

Can't do everything - CAN do Something!!!

"I am only one,
But still I am one.
I cannot do everything,
But still I can do something;
And because I cannot do everything
I will not refuse to do the something that I can do."
