“Freedom is the freedom you choose, when you're not getting in your own way. The best way to start every day is to wake up and wash your face and look yourself in the mirror, right in the eyes of your reflection, and say, "don't get in my way." Because it's only when we get in our own way that we have to step back or step aside or step over here and not walk at all.” WayLooksEyeFacesWalksStepsReflectionWake UpMirrorsBest WayMy WayYour FaceYou Choose Author:Gary Busey

“It is always the first and last steps that are the hardest to take. We walk away and try not to turn back, or we stand just outside the gates, terrified to find what's waiting for us now that we've returned. In between, we stumble blindly from one place and life to the next. We try to do the best we can. There are moments like this, however, when we are neither coming nor going, and all we have to do is sit and look back on the life we have made.” TryingFirstsLooksMadeMomentsLastsTurnsNextWaitingWalksStepsReflectionHardestGatesTerrifiedDo The BestFirsts And Lasts Author:Dinaw Mengestu
