“So I make no effort to hide my pain. I don’t ever put it all on display like this—but for today and all the rest of the days of the trial, I must. My every flinch, every flicker of pain, will be magnified a hundred times over, then dissected by the pundits and talking heads. But I’m told it’s necessary; the world needs to see me vulnerable and wounded. I cannot appear not to care or to lack remorse, but that removes a crucial component of my self- defense mechanism and leaves me bleeding for all the world to see. I suppose that’s rather the point.” WorldNeedsSelfCareTodayPainEffortTalkingHundredDefenseTrialsVulnerableRemoveCrucialMechanismDisplayWoundedRemorseComponentsLeaving MeBleedingSelf DefenseFlickerPunditsDefense MechanismsTalking Heads Author:Ann Aguirre

“Today, I feel stronger, learning to live within the natural cycles of a day and to not expect too much of myself. As women, we hold the moon in our bellies.

“Five hundred years before Christ was born, the Greek philosopher Heraclitus told his students that "everything changes except the law of change". He said: "You cannot step in the same river twice." The river changes every second; and so does the man who stepped in it. Life is a ceaseless change. The only certainty is today. Why mar the beauty of living today by trying to solve the problems of a future that is shrouded in ceaseless change and uncertainty-a future that no one can possibly foretell?” MenTryingYearsDoeSaidProblemTodayLawLife IsChristBornStepsFiveStudentsHundredRiversPhilosopherSolveCertaintyUncertaintyGreekMarsEvery SecondGreek Philosopher Author:Dale Carnegie
“Many theories of the ancient world seem terribly childish today, a hodge-podge of fables and false comparisons.But our theories will seem childish five-hundred years from now.Every theory is based on some analogy, and sooner or later the theory fails because the analogy turns out to be false. A theory in its day helps to solve the problems of the day.” WorldYearsHelpingProblemSeemsTodayTurnsFiveFailingTheoryHundredAncientSolveComparisonSooner Or LaterAnalogiesFablesAncient World Author:Jacob Bronowski
