— Joel Osteen —
 This is something I’ve been working on for years. I used to think “being myself” and simply allowing words to roll from my mouth was the way to be. Today I know I need to practice thoughtful thinking prior to speaking because our words and are tongue are more powerful than we give them…
The light of starry dreams can only be seen once we escape the blinding cities of disbelief.
