  11. Michael says:

    Hey, anyone know the author of this quote?
    “Strive for the impossible to be the best possible”

  12. An item that is impossible is only so at the time of stating it is impossible. Tomorrow the characteristics around the impossibility can change, and suddenly, it is possible. Someone mentioned that the world freeezing is impossible, yet we have had 2 or 3 recorded ice agaes where the world did freeze. Some have said living forever is not possible, yet with science we know that our cells never actually die, they just become something else, food for plants, animals and other. The more we look into a subject, the more we find reasons why something that was impossible, can become possible. It takes time, study and sometimes a mistake to find the solution. For some, faith will lead them to a discovery, for some, belief in an idea or themselves. For others, it will be someone believing in them, to push them to find the answers to everything they are striving to achieve.

  13. ‘Every storm runs out of rain” _ Gary Allen
