"I may not be in total control of what happens in my life, but I certainly am in charge of how I choose to perceive my experience."

"I am a brain enthusiast. (I'm sure you have picked up on that by now.) But, beyond the beauty of this amazing organ we all have inside our heads, it is our remarkable brain cells that manifest our choices and abilities.
