Life can be challenging and sometimes darn right discouraging. Every now and gain, we all need is a little encouragement to keep pushing forward. The power of inspirational words goes beyond the spoken word; it touches lives and changes minds. For me, it allows me to find that focus or get that assurance / affirmation on whatever might be preoccupying my mind.
