Love this quote.   Have used it to open my book on Women, Motorcycling and Empowerment.   It pretty much sums it up.

 “What I am looking for is not out there. It is in me.” Deaf and blind author and activist Helen Keller

 Love these two oft quoted lines which surfaced under my horoscope in freewillastrology.com.   There's a clear, strong message of inspiration and motivation.

 "If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it’s not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That’s why it’s your path."  From mythologist Joseph Campbell:

And a corollary:  "Wanderer, your footsteps are the road, nothing more; there is no road -- you make the road by walking. Turning to look behind, you see the path you will never travel again."  from Spanish poet Antonio Machado:

Pamela Collins, US based motojournalist referenced this quote last week on our tour of the Ottawa Valley. It had to do with a whitewater rafting expedition (more on that another time) but it is meaningful in any context - a powerful statement , a wonderful philosophy and a challenge to each of us.   

"I must be a mermaid. I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living." Anais Nin

Thank you Pam.

"You are never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.”   Richard Bach

When things seem too tough, remember  "What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.”    Richard Bach
