WOW! Words of Wisdom:

• Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men (women) as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is a daring adventure, or nothing. – Helen Keller
• The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself. - Anna Quindlen
• There are no shortcuts to any place worth going. - Beverly Sills
