There is value and blessing in every experience. Don’t stop until you find it.
Alan Cohen
Surround yourself with people that inspire and uplift you. People who think big allow
you to expand. You cannot put your hand into a pot of glue without some of it sticking
and likewise, you cannot interact with inspired people without some of that rubbing
off on you.
Dr. John Demartini
To bless is to recognize the blessing that has already been received.
Alan Cohen
