&quot;I realize that life is risks. It&#039;s acknowledging the past but looking forward. It&#039;s taking chances that we will make mistakes but believeing we all deserve to be forgiven.&quot; <br /> -The Dead Tossed Waves.

&quot;For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness, For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people, For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry, For Beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day, For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Audrey Hepburn

&quot;It&#039;s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won&#039;t be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.&quot;<br /> <br /> ~ Bette Midler
