A sneer is like a flame; it may occasionally be curative because it cauterizes, but it leaves a bitter scar.

We need to send our words out in the direction we want them to go. In other words, we need to start talking victory when we’re staring at defeat. We need to start talking healing when we’re feeling sick. We need to start blessing and prosperity when we don’t have anything. We need to speak about marching when we feel like quitting.

And so you start reshaping from an audience.
Only by confronting your demons can you ever hope to conquer them.
