Just a friendly reminder... pass it on

I really like this quote. It's okay to feel unsure and to struggle—that's the nature of life. Take a deep breath and have faith in yourself. And if you don't believe in yourself, believe in God because He believes in you. :)

Inspiring wisdom from Elie Wiesel (Holocaust survivor) >> "I don't believe in collective guilt. The children of killers are not killers, but children. And they deserve my affection, my efforts to make them human, to give them a world that is worthy of them."

When you take a deeper look at resilience...inevitably you hit upon...HOPE. Interesting read >> http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-ross/nepal-and-baltimore-on-tremors-and-resiliency_b_7175988.html

Data shows that having strong social connections improves the health of individuals and communities alike — having families, neighbors and friends to turn to reduces the negative impacts of stress, thereby improving our health. In addition, being socially connected and supported helps us feel cared for and valued, helps us cope with major life events, and reduces loneliness, all of which improve our health. Social supports also reduce our risk for mental and physical health problems and premature death; they make us, and our community, healthier and more resilient.
