“The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.”

My Grandmother was just full of Native American quotes. The one we heard the most was---We were loaned to each other by God, the gifts that we had were to be used for each other, and that we should treasure each other because we never knew when God would be lonesome for us and take us back.
