Day 3

There were people who went to sleep last night, poor and rich and white and black, but they will never wake again. And those dead folks would give anything at all for just five minutes of this weather or ten minutes of plowing. So you watch yourself about complaining. What you’re supposed to do when you don’t like a thing is change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it. – Maya Angelou

Day 4

The first lesson my kids got about the ocean was to respect it. You can never turn your back on the ocean when you’re dealing with tides and currents – factors beyond your control. You have to be the CEO of your family on the water. CEO stands for ‘constant eyes on,’ and it’s something I never forget.- Summer Sanders

Day 5

If you live life so cautiously as to never fail, you end up failing at life itself. – J.S.B. Morse

Day 6

We sometimes just have to let things be. There are times in life that things happen, and we just cannot control them. There are times when we don’t want things to happen, but they do. Things that we don’t want to know, we learn. Times in which people we can’t live without, we have to let go. The greatest learning is accepting what has, what is, and what will be. Remaining focussed on where we want to go, and how we want to get there. It might not go the way we planned, or the way we hoped it would be. No one said life would be easy, but at least we keep trying, and working hard at making it the best life it can be. – Aisha Mirza




Day 7

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.- Al Franken

Day 8

If you let all the bad thing in life stop you; You will never be there to see the good things in life. – Mia Walker

One of my earliest memories is of seeing my mother in her beach chair, reading a book under an umbrella by the water’s edge while my sisters and I played beside her.

Day 10

Day 14 

I like to believe that you don’t need to reach a certain goal to be happy. I prefer to think that happiness is always there, and that when things don’t go the way we might like them to, it’s a sign from above that something even better is right around the corner.- David Archuleta

Day 24 

Don’t destroy yourself over somebody else’s foolishness. I know they betrayed you. I know they lied on you. I know they talked behind your back and told all of your business. I know they hurt you to the core. I know they turned their back on you. I know they cheated on you. I know they mislead you. I know, I KNOW. In spite of it all, you have to know that you are worth more than what they dished out to you. You will survive! You will make it through! Remember who YOU are and know YOUR self-worth! – Stephanie Lahart

Day 25

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them –work, family, health, friends and spirit and you’re keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls — family, health friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. – Brian Dyson
