Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. I drink at it; but while I drink I see the sandy bottom and detect how shallow it is. Its thin current slides away, but eternity remains. I would drink deeper; fish in the sky, whose bottom is pebbly with stars. --Henry David Thoreau
“If you can visualize it, if you can dream it, there’s some way to do it.” —Walt Disney

Recognize the Possibilities
As I continually grow in life, one thing that always comes back to me is that we have to learn to see things from different perspectives. Looking through our own experiences only limits us to what others have been through and what others feel and think. As Atticus so wisely stated, "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view--until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it". We each have our own experiences that help us with our own decisions and choices, but we must always remember that we cannot make choices for others or try to force them to do what we may believe to be right. That is one of the most beautiful gifts we have, is our ability to make our own choices. Recognize that others may not understand, but make choices because you know they are right. And always be willing to see the possibilities.
