Melissa Tripp: "Pain has taught me to appreciate the things that don't hurt."

Don't seek an answer if you don't have the courage to know and strength to accept it. Be prepared first.

Fear is nothing but the anticipation of pain. Whether it's physical, mental, spiritual or emotional.

Money says: Earn me, forget everything. Time says: Follow me, forget everything. Future says: Struggle for me, forget everything. God simply says: Just remember me. I'll give you everything.

Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.

Small minds can't comprehend big spirits. To be great, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated, and misunderstood. Stay strong.

People too weak to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage yours.
