Quote of the Day- May 6, 2011

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us- Waldo Emerson

When we are deciding what the right thing to do is, it is easy to get caught up in the facts. What has happened is what we know. Oftentimes, if we know one thing that happened in the past, then it will instill a fear that will keep us from doing the same thing for the right reason in the future. What is in the future is a mystery. I believe that the unknowable scares us. Death, decisions, and throwing are lives on the line for what we believe in. We do not know what will happen to us and therefore we are worried for are own well- being. Or maybe you do not do it for your own well being, but sacrifice yourself for the good of others and then worry that your sacrifice won't matter in their lives. However, to do the right thing you must turn to what is within you. You have all of the  resources to do the right thing and conquer your fear.
