"Stand With Me: Build me up, don't tear me down. Support me and my efforts, don't trash me and my efforts. Guide me, don't mislead me. Be my friend, not my enemy. Love me, don't just like me. Hold me, don't just touch me. Receive me, don't reject me. Walk with me, don't walk away from me. Stand with me, STAND WITH ME!!!"

"Anyone who knows how to lose can certainly learn how to win."

"You can become what you could have been. Not necessarily what you wanted to be. Maybe I wanted to be a Linebacker for the Rams, (I didn't) but at 5'8" 170lbs that may not have been realistic. I think most of us find success and happiness only after several tries. Very few people know what they want and even fewer know what they are capable of. Those that do are inspiring and we all love to hear those stories, but for the other 99.99% of the world, the reality is that we spend most of our energy, if not most of our lives, just going through the motions with no real direction or goals in sight. It's only after several tries and several setbacks do we find out what truly makes us happy."

"Success and failure; we think of them as opposites, but they're really not. They're companions - the hero and the sidekick."

"Be YOUnique! Don't let the fear of everyone's reaction hold you back!"

"Don't spend your entire life playing dress up; BE and DO YOU... Literally!"
Paige Diamond --- Submitted by Jai Williams --- Florida
The first time I heard her say it on her show, it resonated with me. So many people live their entire lives living for other people, being what and who everyone else wants them to be. Being and doing you just means to be happy with yourself and whatever it is that you do. It motivates me to be comfortable in my own skin.
"Greatness is a common thing, found in common people from common places, who simply do uncommon things."

"Life has no Limitations, only Possibilities."
Written in 2009 by Pritesh Jethwani --- India
No Matter What!
No matter what the obstacle or task,
You are strong enough to make it through!
No matter what distance the finish line is,
Pace yourself to complete the race!
No matter how seasoned in years you may be,
Your wisdom is more valuable than youth!
No matter how hard today appears to be,
You can make it because you are here!
Keep pressing on,
Don't lose sight of your dreams and be determined,
No Matter What!

The majority of the time when God gives me something to write, it is because I need the encouragement. I just pass it along to help others.

I've experienced losses but turned things around through my power of imagination.

"Keep on going and the chances are you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it. I have never heard of anyone stumbling on something sitting down."
