{"quotes":[{"text":"Never let your fear of the unknown and things being too difficult make your choices for you in life. One of the saddest lessons in life is finding out that your fear made the situation worse than what it was and a braver person stole the dream you gave up on.","author":"Shannon L.

They come with obstacles, challenges, battles and long periods of wandering in the dark. Your path won't make sense to your family or friends. People will weigh in with their life rules and fears, but in the end it is your life. That pull you feel is real and often your intuition. It nags at you everyday. Follow it for as far as it takes you because life is too short to dwell on indecision, while you forget to live. Take a chance because if you have a good heart God isn't going to abandon you. He will travel wherever you need to go, in order to find the missing pieces of your soul.","author":"Shannon L.

How terrified they must have been when they risked falling over the edge; how amazed to discover, instead, places they had seen only in their dreams.","author":"Jodi Picoult","tags":["aspirations","dreams","taking-chances"],"id":128122,"author_id":"Jodi+Picoult"},{"text":"A lifetime isn't forever, so take the first chance, don't wait for the second one!
