Ursula K. Le Guin: "If you want your writing to be taken seriously, don't marry and have kids, and above all, don't die. But if you have to die, commit suicide."

Be brave, you will not see the light at the end of the tunnel until you walk through the darkness.

You don't develop courage by being happy every day. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.

Mindfulness is the courage to be with whatever is here.
