Richard Paul Evans
We are chained to that which we do not forgive
Richard Paul Evans
Love is never convenient-and rarely painless
Richard Paul Evans
. . .and every native has a story of winter – stories that usually begin, You call this a storm? And grow in the telling like battle tales shared by graying war veterans.

Richard Paul Evans
The depth of love is revealed in its departure.
Richard Paul Evans
I think the secret to a hoppy life is a selective memory. Remember what you are most grateful for and quickly forget what your not.
Richard Paul Evans
Everybody needs love. Everybody. Those who don't believe that frighten me a little.
Richard Paul Evans
We carry around in our heads these pictures of what our lives are supposed to look like, painted by the brush of out intentions. It's the great, deep secret of humanity that in the end none of our lives look the way we thought they would. As much as we wish to believe otherwise, most of life is a reaction to circumstances.
Richard Paul Evans
As we walk our individual life journeys, we pick up resentments and hurts, which attach themselves to our souls like burrs clinging to a hiker's socks. These stowaways may seem insignificant at first, but, over time, if we do not occasionally stop and shake them free, the accumulation becomes a burden to our souls.
