 My favorite inspiring quote is "It's All Good" If you can see that in All things    
 there is Good and start to find the Good in ALL circumstances it makes for much better journey. Which is something that when reflected on takes care of Past -Present and Future                             

                                               Light Always

"Get busy livin'  or get busy dyin"

Hope is a good thing and like all good things., It never dies."

This is my prayer/mantra each morning and several times throughout the day when I need to return to centeredness and find guidance.

Think as if your every word were to be etched in fire across the sky for all and everything to see.
For so, in truth it is.
Speak as if the world entire were but a single ear intent on hearing what you say.
For so, in truth it is.
Do as if your every deed were to recoil upon your head.
For so, in truth it does.
Wish as if you were the wish.
For so, in truth you are.
Live as if your God himself had need of you his life to live.
For so, in truth he does.

~ Wei Wu Wei

"We don't enherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children"

"If you can't  take the heat, don't tickle the dragon". This always reminds to be very aware of what I am doing and what the consequences may be.

"Have you ever wondered what would happen to a woman if she never gave birth to the baby she was carrying? It would kill her. In some way a part of us is dying because of all the special talents we carry inside us that we do nothing with.", "The good that comes out of the bad things that happen to you is to help you become your best, most authentic self" Mira Kirshenbaum from her book Everything Happens for a Reason. I've got the whole book marked up and tagged, she said a lot of things that moved me!
