“Gratitude brings a peace that helps us overcome the pain of adversity and failure. Gratitude on a daily basis means we express appreciation for what we have now without qualification for what we had in the past or desire in the future. A recognition of and appreciation for our gifts and talents which have been given also allows us to acknowledge the need for help and assistance from the gifts and talents possessed by others.” NeedsMeanHas BeensHelpingPainPastDesireGivenTalentGratitudeOvercomingBasesAdversityAppreciationRecognitionAcknowledgePossessedAssistanceQualificationsExpress AppreciationGifts And Talents Author:Robert D.

“When I pick up a person from the street, hungry, I give him a plate of rice, a piece of bread. But a person who is shut out, who feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, the person who has been thrown out of society - that spiritual poverty is much harder to overcome. And abortion, which often follows from contraception, brings a people to be spiritually poor, and that is the worst poverty and the most difficult to overcome.” PeopleGivingFeelsPersonsHas BeensSpiritualDifficultPoorPovertyPiecesStreetsWorstPicksOvercomingHarderHungryBreadAbortionThrownPlatesTerrifiedRiceUnwantedUnlovedContraception Author:Mother Teresa
“In those who rest on their unshakable faith, pharisaism and fanaticism are the unmistakable symptoms of doubt which has been repressed. Doubt is not overcome by repression but by courage. Courage does not deny that there is doubt, but it takes the doubt into itself as an expression of its own finitude and affirms the content of an ultimate concern. Courage does not need the safety of an unquestionable conviction. It includes the risk without which no creative life is possible.” NeedsDoeHas BeensLife IsCreativeDoubtRiskExpressionConcernUltimateOvercomingSafetyConvictionDenyExistentialSymptomsFanaticismRepressionRepressedUnshakableCreative LifeFinitudeUnshakable FaithPharisaism Book:Dynamics of Faith Source: Dynamics of Faith

“Fear has been a big battle, it runs rampant in my sport so I love to overcome that, to challenge it head on, because there is nothing that feels as accomplished as overcoming a fear, and something that has blocked you in such a big way.” WayFeelsHas BeensBigsRunningSportsChallengesBattleOvercomingAccomplishedBlocked Author:Laura Wilkinson
