I meet people in my daily life, people who seem to experience some change and some growth on a personal level, and that gives me hope.

Each child is an adventure into a better life - an opportunity to change the old pattern and make it new.

With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.

I choose to believe that there is good in people and that everything is a lesson. Our place on Earth is to go deeper, to somehow get wiser. To have spirit.

Life is supposed to be about love and good times, and so I've forgiven myself after paying the consequences of my bad decisions, and I'm ready to move forward and allow my life to be a light to others that it's never over, even for a person like me, who has lost a tremendous amount of respect among my peers, my fans, my friends and family.

The moment of surrender is not when life is over. It's when it begins

I know my past is not what my future holds.

God grows fragrant flowers of hope in the ashes of loss.

And then, despite everything, I smiled and looked at the note and knew that spring would come —it always does. so I stared out that cold window, watching my breath collect on the glass, trying not to think about my life after the thaw.

Our destiny often looks like a fruit-tree in winter. Who would think from its pitiable aspect that those rigid boughs, those rough twigs could next spring again be green, bloom, and even bear fruit? Yet we hope it, we know it.

Hope is such a powerful thing. We all have hope for different things, but I think sometimes we need to share our hope with other people. We're sometimes in our own issues, and it isolates us, but when we come together and encourage each other and give a little bit of hope, it can, like it says in the song, go a long way.

But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty Someday we will become what we see

Opportunity presents itself sometimes in unusual situations. What you think is the worst thing turns out to be a good thing.

There is no such thing as a hopeless situation. Every single circumstances of your life can change!

The Lord has turned all our sunsets into sunrise.

Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail, but every day is a clean slate and a fresh opportunity.

Even places that have been shrouded in darkness for billions of years can be illuminated. Even a stone from the bottom of a river can be used to produce fire. Our present sufferings, no matter how dark, have certainly not continued for billions of years--nor will they linger forever. The sun will definitely rise. In fact, its ascent has already begun.

I've seen optimism because I grew up in communities of recovery where people put their lives back together and find tomorrows that they didn't think would be there. That fundamentally changed my life and is so much of where my hope comes from.

What I know for sure is that every sunrise is like a new page, a chance to right ourselves and receive each day in all its glory. Each day is a wonder.
