So go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground.

Everything happens for a reason, even when we are not wise enough to see it. When there is no struggle, there is no strength.

I don't believe in failure. It's not failure if you enjoy the process.

I will tell you that there have been no failures in my life. I don't want to sound like some metaphysical queen,but there have been no failures. There have been some tremendous lessons.

What other people label or might try to call failure, I have learned is just God's way of pointing you in a new direction

Think back for a moment on your own history -- not just where you were born or where you grew up, but the circumstances that contributed to your being right here, right now. What were the moments along the way that wounded or scared you? Chances are, you've had a few. But here's what's remarkable: You are still here, still standing.

The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire.

I would like to thank the people who've brought me those dark moments, when I felt most wounded, betrayed. You have been my greatest teachers.

There is not one experience, no matter how devastating, no matter how tortuous it may appear to have been, there is nothing that's ever wasted. Everything that is happening to you is being drawn into your life as a means to help you evolve into who you were really meant to be here on Earth. It's not the thing that matters, it's what that thing opens within you. — Oprah

Say Thank You because your faith is so strong that you don't doubt that what ever the problem, you'll get through it. You're saying thank-you because you know that even in the eye of the storm, God has put a rainbow in the clouds.

Every decision, setback, or triumph is an opportunity to identify the seeds of truth that make you the wondrous human being you are.

What I know for sure is that there is no strength without challenge, adversity, resistance, and often pain.
