"The credit belongs to those who are actually in the arena, who strive valiantly; who know the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spend themselves in a worthy cause; who at the best, know the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if they fail, fail while daring greatly, so that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."--- Theodore Roosevelt

A little inspiration . . .

"As long and laborious as the effort may seem, please keep shaping and setting the stones that will make your accomplishment a grand and imposing spectacle. Take every advantage of opportunity to learn and grow. Dream dreams and see visions. Work toward their realization. Wait patiently when you have no choice. Lean on your sword and rest a while, but get up and fight again...you are laying the foundation of a great work--your own inestimable future."
-Jefferey R. Holland

My Dear Sweet Mom...

"All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother."-- Abraham Lincoln

Some much needed inspiration . . .

"God expects you to have enough faith, determination and trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, keep rejoicing. He expects you not to simply face the future, he expects you to embrace and shape the future - to love it, rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities. God is eagerly waiting for the chance to answer your prayers and fulfill your dreams just as He always has. But He can't if you don't pray and He can't if you don't dream. In short, he can't if you don't believe."
-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

Believe Kate . . . just believe. . .

"Take Care of This Moment"
One of my goals for this new year is to 'take care of this moment' - to live in the present without anxiety for the future, fear of the unknown, or regrets of the past. I want to take advantage of this moment, this opportunity, to live - to love - to be loved . . . I hope to remember this as I explore new paths, cultivate friendships, and strive to achieve my dreams.
