This week's quote: “Ships don't sink because of the water around them. Ships sink because of the water that gets in them. Don't let what's happening around you get inside you and weigh you down.” ~ Anonymous...Have a great week!

Hey everyone! I think I forgot last week's quote because I was at camp so this week I'll share 2 quotes to make up for it! 🙃 Last week's quote: “You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing things with logic. True power is restraint. If words control you that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass.” - Warren Buffett...Now, this week's quote: “You can’t go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending” - C.S. Lewis...I hope you enjoy these! Have an amazing week!
