If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,

which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.
- Jewel

Assemble yourself with wild things,

A man who will Kiss the Flame.

and when you touch a crowd
and move yourself at the same
- Jewel

People living their lives for you on TV;
They say they're better than you, and you agree.

You have to realize: OK, I don't know how
to solve a political problem,
I don't know how to solve the pollution problem...

I need to figure out how to be happy...
and I'm willing.

Most people think that anger is an instinctive response,
and that some people were just born with the temperament
to get angrier faster than others.
That statement is only half right.
Anger is an instinctive response.
We respond to an affront with anger essentially instantaneously -
much too quickly for conscious thought to be called upon.
But the instinct of the anger response
can be trained through conscious repetition,
visualization, and coaching.
Visualization is seeing the event
we desire to master in our mind's eye.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
