“At age 21, you have roughly 60 years of life ahead of you, so time looks cheap. What is one measly year if you have 60 more to spend? It's almost three times as much as you have lived. Or six times more than the time passed since you became a teenager. That's a lot! You're very rich in time, but not so rich in money. So you trade one for the other, it makes sense, right?”

“Two questions I'm pondering: 1. If money didn't exist, would you still chase your dreams? 2. If money didn't exist, would you still keep your job? If the answer is "YES" to both, you're on track. If the answer is "NO" to either, what needs to change?”

“便利商店賣咖啡，「整個城市都是我的咖啡館」，多好的廣告。美式咖啡一杯二十五元，小杯拿鐵三十元，有時還買一送一，買大送小，不用本錢似的。可是還是有人偏偏要去店裡喝一杯九十元、一百一的拿鐵、卡布其諾，尤其是焦糖拿鐵，據說是招牌，我知道為什麼，不是因為店長漂亮啦，又不是每個人都是豬哥。我們有個店員也很漂亮啊，上班不到三個月就被把走了。我覺得阿布咖啡這種店賣的是氣氛，你看我們就這麼緊鄰著，我有時也會聞到咖啡香，烘焙蛋糕的氣味會從後面防火巷傳過來，我去後頭倉庫整理貨的時候，會流口水，真的止都止不住，交換班的時候，我也會晃過去往裡頭瞧，隔著一層玻璃，像隔開一個世界，我們在這裡叮咚，歡迎光臨，跑斷腿在那裡結帳、收銀、煮咖啡、賣霜淇淋、影印、傳真、收包裹、發傳真、收水電費、拿演唱會的票、收宅配，簡直像是萬事通，我媽都笑我說以前啥都不會，現在什麼都會，如果店裡開始賣牛肉麵，我一點也不會覺得奇怪，真的，便利商店，早晚會把雜貨店、超市、郵局、洗衣店、快餐店、咖啡店，這個那個所有的店都取代了，那時我們的生活就完了，微波、速食、廉價，什麼都變得廉價淺薄了，就像我們這種員工一樣，我啥都會，可是出去其他地方，也等於什麼都不會，我們學的這些，真的到專業的店裡，也用不上。”

“Я робив домашні завдання, вчив ієрогліфи й історичні факти й навіть два літа поспіль вів облік черепків та інших знахідок у Середземноморському музеї Стокгольма, який цілком міг би бути моїм місцем роботи, якби я став єгиптологом у Швеції. Я бачив, як наступного літа ті самі люди робили майже ту саму роботу, що й попереднього. Ба більше: вони ходили обідати в той самий час у той самий ресторан, замовляли ту саму їжу, говорили про ті самі єгиптологічні загадки й так само пліткували. Зрештою я зрозумів, що, на мій смак, наука єгиптологія рухається вперед надто повільно. Не такої фахової роботи я для себе хотів. Мені праглося більше захвату й практичної користі для навколишнього світу.”

“Dear my strong girls, you will all go through that phase of life making a mistake of helping a toxic girl whose friendship with you turns into her self-interest. This kind of girls is a real burden towards the empowerment of other females as they can never get past their own insecurity and grow out of high-school-like drama. Despite how advanced we are in educating modern women, this type will still go through life living in identity crisis, endlessly looking for providers of any kind at the end of the day. They can never stand up for others or things that matter because they can't stand up for themselves. They care what everyone thinks only doing things to impress men, friends, strangers, everyone in society except themselves, while at the same time can't stand seeing other women with purpose get what those women want in life. But let me tell you, this is nothing new, let them compete and compare with you as much as they wish, be it your career, love or spirit. You know who you are and you will know who your true girls are by weeding out girls that break our girlie code of honor, but do me a favor by losing this type of people for good. Remind yourself to never waste time with a person who likes to betray others' trust, never. Disloyalty is a trait that can't be cured. Bless yourself that you see a person's true colors sooner than later. With love, your mama. XOXO”

“Sometimes, we expect life to work a certain way and when it doesn’t we blame others or see it as a sign, rather than face the pain of the choices we should or shouldn’t have made. Real healing won’t begin until we stop saying, “God prevented this or that.” Often in our attempt to protect ourselves from pain, we leave things to fate and don’t take chances. Or, we don’t work hard enough to keep the blessings we are given. Maybe, we didn't recognize a blessing, until it was too late. Often, it is the lies we tell ourselves that keeps us stuck in a delusion of not being responsible for our lives. We leave it all up to God. The truth is we are not leaves blowing toward our destiny without any control. To believe this is to take away our freedom of choice and that of others. The final stage of grief is acceptance. This can’t be reached through always believing God willed the outcomes in our lives, despite our inaction or actions. To think so is to take the easy escape from our accountability. Sometimes, God has nothing to do with it. Sometimes, we just screwed up and guarded our heart from accepting it, by putting our outcome on God as the reason it turned out the way it did. Faith is a beautiful thing, but without work we can give into a mysticism of destiny that really doesn't teach us lessons or consequences for our actions. Life then becomes a distorted delusion of no accountability with God always to blame for battles we walked away from, won or loss.”

“It has always been simple, but making it hard was always your way of avoiding pain. If you want to change your life, you have to change what you are doing. It wasn't his fault, her fault, their fault or the circumstances. It was your inability to choose. So, life chose for you. Somewhere in that crazy mind of yours time stopped. You thought someone would rescue you, but they didn't. You have to rescue yourself. This is not a fire you can put out; you have to walk through it, in order to reach life. Getting burned is apart of growth, didn't you know?”

“What if you were wrong? What if everything you ever believed was a lie? What if you missed your opportunity because you didn't know your worth? What if you settled on familiar, but God was trying to give you something better? What if you decided not to go backwards, but forward? What if doing what you have never done before was the answer to everything that didn't make sense? What if the answer wasn't to be found in words, but in action? What if you found the courage to do what you really wanted to do and doing it changed your whole life?”

“A period of protracted, repeated, profound, emotional turmoil, beginning sometime in the second or third year of the practice of law, and continuing off and on, mostly on, many times for the rest of the legal career, characterized by a rather significant, continuous, and oftentimes all-consuming, desire to explore alternative possibilities; to explore a change, any change at all, and to effect the change. These periods are typically coupled with a constant search for a new dream to pursue, potentially followed by additional periods of intense regret as dreams are not fulfilled.”
