You have to take it. Life is struggling to do the impossible - to succeed or die, knowing you have tried. Never refuse an experience. Doing the right thing can never be measured by the outcome of events. Judge yourself by what you do, not what happens afterwards.
Courage is the price life exacts for granting peace.
The soul that knows it not knows no release from little things, knows not the livid loneliness of fear, nor mountain heights where bitter joy can hear the sound of wings. There's moments in your life that make you, set the course of who you're going to be. Sometimes they're little, subtle moments. Even if you see them coming, you're never ready for the big moments. Nobody asks for their life to change, not really.
