More quotes by Shannon L. Alder

"Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you."
"Beauty is not who you are on the outside, it is the wisdom and time you gave away to save another struggling soul, like you."
"There are no coincidences in life. What person that wandered in and out of your life was there for some purpose, even if they caused you harm. Sometimes, it doesn’t make sense the short periods of time we get with people, or the outcomes from their choices. However, if you turn it over to God he promises that you will see the big picture in the hereafter. Nothing is too small to be a mistake."
"The only way to move from your reality to God’s reality is through people who love you."
"If you were born with the ability to change someone’s perspective or emotions, never waste that gift. It is one of the most powerful gifts God can give—the ability to influence."
