I was afraid. I knew I was making a choice that would completely change my life, but nothing could stop me. I didn’t know where my destiny was leading me, but I knew that if I were to move forward in my journey, I would find a whole new life, with a whole new identity.
I had to leave everything else behind.

Some people meet the way the sky meets the earth, inevitably, and there is no stopping or holding back their love. It exists in a finished world, beyond the reach of common sense.Louise Erdrich (via kari-shma)

Maria Shriver - USC Annenberg Commencement Speech 2012
“So today, as you head out into the Open Field of life, keep your mind open, keep your heart open. Don’t be afraid to be afraid. Courageous people often are afraid. In fact, that’s why they need courage in the first place!
Have the courage to go beyond your fears. Have the courage to go beyond judgment. Have the courage go beyond shoulda-could-woulda — go beyond others’ rules and expectations.
Live and write your own story and then be brave enough to communicate it authentically. Trust me, someone else will be inspired by it and learn from it.
Be committed to communicating the truth. Don’t get so caught up along the way in what you’re doing and where you’re going that you lose sight of your core values: who you are and what’s important in your life.
And finally, remember this: Whenever you’re in doubt: PAUSE — take a moment. Look at your options — check your intentions — and THEN? Take the high road.”
