January 1 starts the beginning of a new year with all it's hopes and dreams. To honor that potential, I am publishing daily quotes that remind us of who we are and who we can be. The quote will be paired with one of my images of Arizona. It is my prayer that these encouraging words find their way to those who really need them and that they take comfort knowing they are never walking alone. When you walk through a storm Hold your head up high And don't be afraid of the dark At the end of a storm There's a golden sky And the sweet silver song of a lark Walk on through the wind Walk on through the rain Though your dreams be tossed and blown Walk on, walk on With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone The Righteous Brothers, "You'll Never Walk Alone" Table Of Contents 01.

Be fearless. Have the courage to take risks. Go where there are no guarantees. Get out of your comfort zone even if it means being uncomfortable. The road less traveled is sometimes fraught with barricades bumps and uncharted terrain. But it is on that road where your character is truly tested. And have the courage to accept that you’re not perfect nothing is and no one is -- and that’s OK. Katie Couric Contents Books Home Hire Stories   January 5, 2022
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.

I cured myself of shyness when it finally occurred to me that people didn’t think about me half as much as I gave them credit for. The truth was, nobody gave a … When I stopped being prisoner to what I worried was others’ opinions of me, I became more confident and free. Lucille Ball Contents Books Home Hire Stories  |
