It's not up to anyone else on the planet to make you happy. It's up to you and you alone. - Regina Brett

Cancer taught me to stop saving things for a special occasion, because every day is special.

Focus your energy on designing the life you want instead of waiting for someone to show up and hand it to you on a platter. Finish college. Establish a career. Figure out what makes you happy and choose it, everyday.

The world isn't ending. You are just experiencing turbulence. The plane is safe. The pilot is good. You're in the right seat of life. You just hit a patch of bumpy air. Wait. It will pass.
