One thing you can depend on people being…is people.
The greatest snipers and marksmen in the world don’t aim at the target, they aim on the other side of it.
The race is never over. The journey has no port. The adventure never ends because we are always on our way.
They may be truths to me, but don’t think that that makes them mine… because you can’t own a truth.
We do our best when our destinations are beyond the “measurement,” when our reach continually exceeds our grasp, when we have immortal finish lines.
You are going to make mistakes — own them, make amends, and move on. Guilt and regret kills many a man before their time. Turn the page, get off the ride.
