3 " How often, you wonder, has the direction of your life been shaped by such misunderstandings? How many opportunities have you been denied--or, for that matter, awarded--because someone failed to see you properly?

And that doesn't mean you can't do it again. "
5 " If every year is a marble, how many marbles do you have left? How many sunrises, how many opportunities to rise to the full stature of your being? "
