Rather than try to get it over with, try not to try, and let it last.

The small things are far too important to be left to the mind alone.
Familiar fears are not more valid, only more conspicuous.
Banish fear, ever scanning for evils, by leaning toward hope, ever spotlighting the good.
Determine what is important, and only these things gently hold.
Modeling joy, enthusiasm and unconditional love and acceptance, dogs are proof that the universe is no mere happy accident.
If ever your world should lack mysteries and miracles, look again through the eyes of a child.
Your life is a mind-boggling matrix of genes, experiences and decisions forming a wondrous landscape about which I may assume almost nothing.
The soul is best nourished by the wellspring of a pure heart.
Attempting to control what cannot be controlled is an exercise in madness.
Be early enough to pad every moment with breathing room.
Choose carefully the altar upon which you will sacrifice.
Listen closely for habits softly crying to be pulled like weeds.
Most new beginnings are invisible, waiting to be seen.
The relentless pursuit of truth is a near-death experience.
Nearly every moment can be met with a feeling of lightness.
Invest your energies in activity and lay your exhaustion to rest.
 Novels are islands upon which we strand ourselves with nothing but the promise of rescue.
It is not until we've fallen that we feel the need to rise up.
Though we will never be all that we can, we will always be more then we can fathom.
Decisiveness releases us from the fantasy of infinite possibilities to the freedom of a life made intentionally specific.

Daily Thoughts In July of 2014, a friend asked me to send her one original inspirational message per day. These became my Daily Thoughts. I have not yet missed a day, and I hope to continue until my last.
