- “As individuals die every moment, how insensitive and fabricated a love it is to set aside a day from selfish routine in prideful, patriotic commemoration of tragedy.

I would rather meet a person vain on the outside; while possessing the simplest of hearts.” ― C. JoyBell C.

When we learn to live selflessly, putting others before ourselves, committing to what is noble, right and good; treating others with love and compassion…that’s when true happiness is experienced. A genuine focus on selflessness cures all and creates an environment for true growth. It’s the secret to every great relationship. We gain…when we give up self. Sacrificing one’s selfish characteristics through diligent thought, meditation, prayer and action gives life to true love and abounding joy.~Jason Versey” ― Jason Versey, A Walk with Prudence
