I'm one of those people who lives for the moment. If you concern yourself with what's going to happen a year from now, or five years from now, you defuse the moment. Whatever comes, comes. For this time I enjoy the ascent. I don't worry about anything except getting thinner thighs.
Oprah Winfrey
You are built not to shrink down to less but to blossom into more.
Oprah Winfrey
