Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to
draw back. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation)
there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills
countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one
definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one that would never
otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues
from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of
unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance,
which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.
Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness
has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.
--Goethe

"There are people in your life who've come & gone;
They let you down; you know they hurt your pride.
You better put it all behind you, baby,
Cause life goes on!
You keep carrying that anger,
It'll eat you up inside!"
~Don Henley ("Heart of the Matter")
