Joseph Gonzales:  

just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally." "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Try to direct your energies toward what you love and cherish, not what upsets you. What you can't change will only continue to elude you. Focus on what's in your control. "PEACE....it does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work, it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart." (unknown) Be yourself. After all, it's a lot of hard work trying to be someone else. You might be in for a long road if friends or family members can't accept it, but at least you can look in the mirror and be proud of who you are. Isn't that worth it? Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? An over inflated ego is the major cause of an under inflated heart and under developed brain! "The world is a dangerous place. Not because of the people who are evil; but because of the people who don't do anything about it." - Albert Einstein How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.~~George Washington Carver".
