"When I look at the future, it's so bright it burns my eyes!"
"The darker it gets, the brighter your dreams shine."
"The light teaches you to convert life into a festive promenade."
"Positivity is like harmonics and patterns. Create positivity in your life, and allow it to interfere with more positivity. Allow that positivity to vibrate alongside more paths. The end result, is a beautiful day. However, why stop there? There is a reason that positivity parallels harmonics and patterns, so keep it going towards dream's end. If you feel like there isn't enough positivity in your life to get your day started, don't worry, I have plenty, so you can take some of mine. Infinity minus 1 is still infinity, so take some positivity from me, bathe in it, sing with it, and know that today, there is success within your value -- for you were able to wake up and treasure another day."
"Self-confident people tend to be optimistic thinkers and focus on the positives."
"Stick with the optimists. It's going to be tough enough even if they're right."
