It's time to stop letting your history control your destiny.

The moment of surrender is not when life is over. It's when it begins.

We do not heal the past by dwelling there; we heal the past by living fully in the present.

Of course things might have gone roughly in the past, but the past is over and cannot touch you unless you hold on to it. Right now, in this moment, the universe is responding not to your past but to the truth of who you are, always were, and always will be.

I surrender my focus on the past that I might dwell fully in the present. May my mind not wander into the darkness of before, but rather be filled with the light of now. May my heart be open to the knowing that anything is possible in any moment, and God Himself is not held back by the fears or mistakes of yesterday. I forgive what has been, and embrace what is. I am at peace in the holiness of this instant, and release all else.

Midlife is about surrendering things that no longer matter, not because our lives are in decline, but because they're on an incline

There's a profound satisfaction in finally giving up something meaningless, for no other reason than that we did it to the max and now we're ready to move on.

Until we heal the child we used to be, the adult we want to becdoesn't stand a chance.

God is in the résumé-building business. He is always using past experiences to prepare us for future opportunities.

The beginning seems to be more than half of the whole.

Let go of the old, take hold of the new and believe that 2013 will be your best year yet!

Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but rather that it shall never have a beginning.
