"Similar to a how a flower grows incrementally, people also blossom in stages. As we age, we expand our knowledge of how the world works and how other people respond to our deeds. We also expand our language skills in order to communicate both our thoughts and feelings."

"If our mind remains freeze-framed by inhibiting and hampering habits, in an ever-changing world, we won't be able to get rid of that weird feeling of not belonging anywhere and not taking part in authentic life challenges. ['Not on the shortlist']"

"If we misread the blueprint of our life, we need not be ashamed of backtracking on our chosen options. Admitting to mistakes may make us human and maybe great again. ['Sisyphus' hardship on the hill']"

"I wasn't ready to think about the other yet: that it wasn't that I wasn't right for Macon, but that maybe he wasn't right for me. There was a difference. Even for someone who things didn't come easy for, someone like me."

"It's hard to do," I said. Wes looked at me. "What is?" I swallowed, not sure why I'd said this out loud. "Get it right."

"For things I am not thankful for-experiences I would never volunteer to relive-I recognize how they have changed me. My depth of compassion and humility, the sincerity of my empathy and understanding, and the duration of my patience have all been refined by bitter suffering. I thank God for the lessons learned. I am a better person for it, but I still abhor those awful trials."

"If you couldn't sense heat, you'd not be alive. And if that heat never grew uncomfortable, you would never move. And if you were stagnant-unchallenged by unpredictable flares-you would never grow capable of shielding yourself from harsher flames. So yes, life was meant to drag you straight through the fire."

"Literature is map of humanity, the documenter of civilization. Books introduce us to the landscape of the greatest minds of every century."

Literature

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"Storytelling entails weaving a narrative out of the disturbing, strange, inspirational, and unremarkable detritus of life. By picking among the litter of our personal experiences to select evocative anecdotes to weave into a narrative format, we reveal which of life's legendary offerings prove the most sublime to us. Acts of omission are momentous. Our narration of personal sketches divulge what factoids inspire us or do not stir us into action, or contain obdurate truths that prove virtually impossible to crack."

Storytelling

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"Writing fiction or nonfiction is a lonely battle wrestling with sentences in an effort to put together an intelligible thought that speaks for the author."

Creativity

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"A poet warrior realizes both the brutality and the beauty in life, and apprehends that the suffering we tragically endure is partly what makes us human. What also makes us human is the ability to love, the ability to stand in nature's presence, and to nurture this earthly paradise to tend to our family's needs."

Humanity

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"Every human being carries with them the stories of their ancestors, the story of their generation, and the rudiments of pliable clay to build future storylines that will shape their community of kindred souls. Storytelling unites us as a species and supplies texture to our lives. By listening to other people's stories and by sharing our personal story, we deftly weave the threads that compose the sacred hoop of the tribe."

Storytelling

"Life's most precious moments are not all loud or uproarious. Silence and stillness has its own virtues."

Silence

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"Some people never stop working, especially the demanding type of person whom the world never seems to touch, the indomitable person whom is determined to make the world their own place."

Work

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"A person lives a false life whenever they are afraid to make contact with his or her authentic self. A sensitive ego " one that protects a person from pain " can also prevent a person from maturing mentally and emotionally by causing a person to distort truths and refuse to admit unpleasant facts."

Authenticity

Quote_1.png
Kilroy J. Oldster
"Without opposition, there could be no creation. All life would cease without resistance. Emotions also have their polar opposites: attraction " repulsion, love " hate, aggression " meekness, and mercy " callousness."

Life

"Personal dignity begins by accepting responsibility for our actions, acting humbly, and extending compassion to other people. Personal humility requires choosing living with quietness of the heart over living in the depths of animosity, despair, and discord."
