“Stop Being Who You Were” / “You Are a Badass”
“Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone’s face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.” (Henri J. M. Nouwen)

It’s not up for negotiation.” (Jen Sincero, author of You are a Badass, How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life)
