Give yourself free time

"Life is made up of moments, small pieces of glittering mica in a long, stretch of gray cement. It would be wonderful if they came to us unsummoned, but particularly in lives as busy as the ones most of us lead now, that won’t happen. We have to teach ourselves how to make room for them, to love them, and to live, really live." -- Anna Quindlen

GROWING OURSELVES

"The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
