One of Vivian's favorite quotes is:""It's not the dress I'm in, but how you see me in it."
"It has been succinctly said that the main cause for failure and unhappiness is trading what you want most for what you want at the moment. If the best things in life are not things, what do you want most? Fulfillment? Love? Joy? Happiness?Meaning? Intimacy? Friendship? Spiritual wholeness? Success? Health? Hope? Something else? What if you traded what you want at the moment for what you want most -- if you remember what is important in life and concentrate only on that. The life you build would be no less than incredible."
