If we are waiting for guaranteed courses of action, we may spend much of our life waiting.

Melody Beattie

The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written. We can help write that story by setting goals.

Melody Beattie

Waiting time is not wasted time. Something is being worked out — in us, in someone else, in the Universe.

Melody Beattie

There are no knights on white horses, no magical grandmothers in the sky watching, waiting to rescue us. Teachers may come our way, but they will not rescue. They will teach. People who care will come, but they will not rescue. They will care. Help will come, but help is not rescuing. We are our own rescuers. Our relationships will improve dramatically when we stop rescuing others and stop expecting them to rescue us.
