“In regards to the candle that burns at both ends-
how brilliant the light is for the beholder!
How beautiful the pain of that candle is
To those who only witness from afar,
But will never truly feel the price of such a shine.”

“Do three things well, not ten things badly.”
“Juggling and balancing effectively required that we make clear, legacy-driven choices about what we're trying to keep in the air and how we sequence our movements down the beam. Because the ultimate grade in life is not based on how far and fast we've walked the beam or how many things we’ve juggled—it’s based on how much we've enjoyed the exercise.”

“Life is a juggling act with your own emotions. The trick is to always keep something in your hand and something in the air.”

“I consider where you might play now,
as I lay staring out at the horizon.
Plucking a petal, I whisper a message
and let it float into the gentle breeze.
The words will drift out of the garden,
across the changed roads we used to tread.
Circling new ground to find their feet,
they will learn a new language to speak.
[Seeking Sanctuary]”

“I am sure we all know this: Efficiency is doing things right & Effectiveness is doing the right things. But, it doesn’t mean doing pointless things perfectly, efficiently or effectively..
Let’s be honest, Sweetheart. Sometimes we all are just stuck in juggling with balls. This weekend, take a moment to step back & ask yourself: “Is this REALLY the best way to spend my time?”
Please, don’t waste your energy on stuff that doesn’t matter..
Darling listen – This weekend, try to be your best version by being effective & efficient in real sense...
Stay firm in prayers, be positive, fight for what is yours & wait for your time to come. May you make this weekend amazing & unforgettable! Blessings!”
