REFLECTION:

  • Who has deeply loved you and thereby gave you strength?
  • Who have you deeply loved and you have courage because of them?
  • Can you thank them for what they have given and for what you have received?

Quote by Ann Landers.

REFLECTION:

  • How have you persisted?
  • Is there something you quit too soon?
