"The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate."

"I consider myself a stained-glass window. And this is how I live my life. Closing no doors and covering no windows; I am the multi-colored glass with light filtering through me, in many different shades. Allowing light to shed and fall into many many hues.

"Be happy -- if you're not even happy, what's so good about surviving?"
