Decide in your heart of hearts what really excites and challenges you... and start moving your life in that direction. Every decision you make, from what you eat to what you do with your time tonight... turns you into who you are tomorrow, and the day after that. Look at who you want to be, and start sculpting yourself into that person. You may not get exactly where you thought you'd be... but you will be doing things that suit you in a profession you believe in. Don't let life randomly kick you into the adult you don't want to become. -Chris Hadfield Commander, Expedition 35 International Space Station.

It’s a delusion that anyone could be an astronaut. It takes an ideal mixture of physical and mental capabilities in addition to hard work and determination. Astronauts have been PR figureheads, necessarily accepted as such by ground crews and technicians in order to get proper funding. .In my opinion, those ground people as individuals and as a team are the real heroes that get the job done. I look forward to the day (and it is close if not already here) that less-than-superlative and non-military humans go into space.

The truth is that only being proactive in your own life will ever result in a life we build rather than a life we ultimately feel we were made to accept. There is always a way to move forward, however difficult the path seems, and that doesn’t just apply to kids.

Plenty of ovaries have been to space. And not just Sandra Bullock’s.

Can you do a comic strip for this quote please :)?
“For everything in this journey of life we are on, there is a right wing and a left wing: for the wing of love there is anger; for the wing of destiny there is fear; for the wing of pain there is healing; for the wing of hurt there is forgiveness; for the wing of pride there is humility; for the wing of giving there is taking; for the wing of tears there is joy; for the wing of rejection there is acceptance; for the wing of judgment there is grace; for the wing of honor there is shame; for the wing of letting go there is the wing of keeping. We can only fly with two wings and two wings can only stay in the air if there is a balance. Two beautiful wings is perfection. There is a generation of people who idealize perfection as the existence of only one of these wings every time. But I see that a bird with one wing is imperfect. An angel with one wing is imperfect. A butterfly with one wing is dead. So this generation of people strive to always cut off the other wing in the hopes of embodying their ideal of perfection, and in doing so, have created a crippled race.” ― C. JoyBell C.
