Opportunities for expressing our Soul's Nature create pure beauty and can appear
in the most daunting of ways. If we stay imprisoned by the FEAR and JUDGMENT of

Quote from Inspiration Line 5/16/05 Most
things that happen in life we can choose to call 'gifts' ... though it's often
difficult to see the treasure in a tragedy. As time passes and extenuating circumstances
reveal themselves, however, I believe we can always find the 'diamond that arrived...
wrapped in a square of toilet paper.'

is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast. In the pool where you least
expect it, will be a fish.
— Ovid
The
golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment,
it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone.
— Orison
Sweet Marden I
always tried to turn every disaster into an opportunity.

John D. Rockefeller Out
of clutter, find Simplicity. From discord, find Harmony. In the middle of difficulty
lies opportunity.

Work) A
pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity
in every difficulty.

Spend
eighty percent of your time focusing on the opportunities of tomorrow rather than
the problems of yesterday.
— Brian Tracey (The Treasury
of Quotes) There
is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there's only
a scarcity of resolve to make it happen.

Dyer You
cannot afford to wait for perfect conditions. Goal setting is often a matter of
balancing timing against available resources. Opportunities are easily lost while
waiting for perfect conditions.

Munchies) Opportunity
is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Bryan Each
morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to
make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead,
tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy
in it.
— Groucho Marx The
last of the human freedoms is to choose one's attitudes.
—
Victor Frank The
remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will
embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that
people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing
we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
—
Charles Swindoll Joy
does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every
day.
— Henri Nouwen We

our sensibility. In the many thousand daily choices we make, we create ourselves
and the voice with which we speak and work.

Forche Nothing
is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.
— Napoleon Bonaparte
Life
is the sum of your choices.

We
need to teach the next generation of children from Day One that they are responsible
for their lives. Mankind's greatest gift, also its greatest curse, is that we
have free choice. We can make our choices built from love or from fear.

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross Since
we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality.

If
you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect
yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise.

Robert Fritz It
is our choices ... that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
— J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets) When
you choose to be pleasant and positive in the way you treat others, you have also
chosen, in most cases, how you are going to be treated by them.
—
Zig Ziglar Your
life is the sum result of all the choices you make, both consciously and unconsciously.
If you can control the process of choosing, you can take control of all aspects
of your life. You can find the freedom that comes from being in charge of yourself.
