“I am responsible.

Although I may not be able to prevent the worst from happening,

I am responsible for my attitude toward the inevitable misfortunes that darken life.

Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and

the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness,

immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the 

pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself.”

-Walker Anderson
