I is for: Instincts
Feel the fear, and then let it go. Jump in and do it - whatever
it is. If our Instincts and path have led us there, it's where we
need to be. —Melody Beattie

J is for: Joyfully
For all of us, laughter and tears come from the same deep well
inside. And often, after a good cry, we find ourselves ready to
laugh, easily and Joyfully. —Today's Gift

K is for: Key
Continuous effort--not strength or intelligence - is the Key to
unlocking our potential. —Liane Cordes

God, Grant me the maturity
