"Some of us have spent so long trying to be what we
think we should be, what we think "they" wanted us
to be, or trying to be who we would rather be, instead
of just being ourselves. We have hidden from ourselves
for so long. We have hidden our feelings in bottles
and people. We have hidden from our fears and
our truths, rather than looking at who we are. We
have hidden ourselves from ourselves.
We were created on this universe to be ourselves. It
is time to be and act exactly as we are. Only then can
we begin to like ourselves as we are today. And the
more we like ourselves, the happier we will be. -- ruth fishel

"There are days that we cannot always do what we
want. Some days do not go our way. We cannot always
play or have a "good time" when we want.
This does not mean that we cannot have fun in each
day. Nor does it mean that there is no good in each
day. There just are no guarantess that we will be
happy every minute of everyday. Sometimes it might
even feel as if the best we can do on some days is just
get through it. What we do know today is that we can
get through everyday without running away, without
anesthetizing ourselves, without trying to block what
we feel. And we know that these days will not last forever.
It is just for today and we can do anything for
just 24 hours."--ruth fishel
... Tomorrow? I have enough trouble dealing with today!
