The moon has been this big on the way back from Augsburg after helping out my sister with moving

Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow. ~Dan Rather

but what's actually important is this:

Perceiving without judgement and
Wishing without expectations

I had too much expectations, so I got too disappointed. No expectations, no disappointement. Right, not easy, but I'm working on me every day. Get better!
I found some fantastic quotations and lost them. Then as looking for the others I found new ones.

Life is a progress, not a station

“Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.”

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.

What you are comes to you
                          
 "So, what exactly does lie within all of us? That’s the big question, isn’t it? Within all of us lie so many things…hopes and fears, truths and lies, the past and the future…along with the full compliment of the good and the bad. I like to think that within all of us lie not only the potentially heroic, but the potentially tragic as well. It’s what we do with it that makes all the difference. to take an honest look inside themselves, and confront what really does lie within. It’s not always easy to honestly confront all of those little assumptions that we’ve based our entire lives upon. And, everyone has a past…one that most of us carry around with us as a constant companion, albeit a sometimes-unwelcome one.
Personally, I have also long been intrigued by the many little lies that we all tell ourselves along the way…lies that eventually seem to take on a life of their own in our consciousness."   - Rickdog
