Childhood And Prime Are Fleeting

"Rejoice, young man, during your childhood, and let your heart be pleasant during the days of young manhood. And follow the impulses of your heart and the desires of your eyes. Yet know that God will bring you to judgment for all these things. So, remove grief and anger from your heart and put away pain from your body, because childhood and the prime of life are fleeting." WFTW

A Definition Of Real Love

"Real love is not to desire a person, but to truly desire their happiness—sometimes, even, at the expense of our own happiness. Real love is not to make another person a carbon copy of one’s self. It is to expand our own capabilities of tolerance and caring, to actively seek another’s well being. All else is simply a charade of self-interest." WFTW

Expect Criticism When Choosing To Be Yourself

"When we choose to be the person God created us to be- unique and different than everybody else - we have to expect some criticism. But you won't like yourself very much if you go against your own convictions. See, going along with the crowd, when you know in your heart that God's leading you a different way, is one reason people don't succeed at being themselves.  " WFTW
"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." WFTW
