		<description><![CDATA[It saddens my heart to see someone troubled to take away the gift that they were given.  No matter what challenges you face, living is better than checking out.

Life wasn't easy for me being a teenager.  Never really fitting in since I was a young kid.  Moving from school to school.  Not easy to keep friends and definitely being so shy it was difficult to make new friends.  Then as you move into high school with horrible acne and no girlfriends.  Still moving around from school to school, house to house.  Life was filled with disappointments and difficult to have the stability of one constant friend.  Life got even harder for me as I got older but not once did I consider taking away the precious gift of life and now I have two beautiful boys and life is good.  Of course it still has its ups and downs but taking your life means no tomorrow, no next week, no next year, no retirement.

Today is just today. Yesterday is in the past and you may think you may know what tomorrow holds but you don't know for sure.

Instead of taking your life, do something crazy like move or start new somewhere different. Take a vacation, travel to the other-side of the world. Say hi to someone you normally wouldn't.  Do something fun for yourself or even adventurous.  Life is only what you make of it.  If you don't like the people that are surrounding you, then move away and surround yourself with people you prefer.

LIFE can be AMAZING.  Even an amazing life has its challenges.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just because you feel small sometimes, like your life is just a series of little things that don't mean anything, remember that they all do. They all add up to something that is bigger than you can possibly imagine.



And it's all because of you!



Every puzzle piece counts.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you find yourself fearful about something in your life - a new job, a new relationship, a new step in a different direction - stop for a minute and take a deep breath.


Look in your heart and see if everything is as it should be. If all is right, then what's to fear?


Trust your inner wisdom and take a chance. You absolutely CAN do it.]]></description>
