(2/2) ...We wait for the things we're promised or will choose. We wait as things unfold and take the shape they will, not knowing what the future holds, or quite where we're flying, or what we have begun. - S10E5

(1/2) Sometimes we wait not for change, but for the grace to accept the status quo. We must embrace the way things are, and let life frame the love we have to share. We wait for meaning to be made apparent... - S10E5

There is so much that money can't buy. And so many rewards for which there can be no competition. The best of these is love. Love is a gift, not to be fought for, but simply given and received. Not to be judged or measured, but embraced as the greatest prize of all. - S10E4

Most of life's pleasures must be earned. They come our way because we work for them, because we dare to strive, have faith and play the game. There are rules of engagement and there are rewards. There is endeavour, there is effort, there is hope. - S10E4

Where do we begin? What marks the start of any new adventure? Is it the first step? The deep breath? The single leap of faith? And what do we leave behind us when the future calls? - S9E1

The past is never lost to us. We carry it with us, everywhere we go. It's where we've been, where we learn to love, where we made our mistakes and where we consign them. The gift is knowing the present will soon pass. And that the way we embrace it can change everything. - S9E1

(2/2) Perhaps, most of all, we are what we accept. What we allow to be important. What we embrace about each other and ourselves There's nothing better and there is nothing more hopeful. -S8E5

(1/2) Who are we, after all? Are we where we live? Are we the rituals we celebrate year after year as the seasons roll round? Are we our hopes and our desires? Are we what we choose to be and do? Or are we shaped by accident and not our own design? -S8E5

Sometimes currents change, leaving no clear channel for ships to sail on, but even in the midst of such uncertainty comes joy. No-one's ever as alone as they imagine. For everything will wash away, fresh potential will dawn. In every wave of change, there's a new beginning. -S6E1

(1/2) Each life is a journey defined by the turns we take and the roads we choose. Some travel geographically, trading home for home, and one language for another. But we all move from youth to maturity, childhood to parenthood, as if traversing continents. -S6E3

(2/2) But it's no matter if we meet as strangers, for we can join forces and learn to love. And where there's friendship and affection there's the place we can all call home. - S6E3

(2/2) The world shifts and the climate alters. Safe passage cannot be bought and we have no holy passport to protect us. And so we venture forward, fragile maps in hand flying our banners of courage and of hope. - S6E3

(1/2) Sometimes there's no map for the road we find ourselves on. It lies ahead, uncharted, unfurling into mist. We're all travelling through each other's countries... - S6E3

(2/2) Perfection is what we discover in each other, what we see reflected back. And if perfection eludes us, that doesn't matter. For what we have within the moment is enough. - S3E5

(1/2) Perfection isn't a polished thing. It's often simply something that's sincerely meant. Perfection is a job complete, praise given, prayer heard. It can be kindness shown, thanks offered up. - S3E5

(2/2) We can find tenderness and laughter amid stress. We can find our purpose and a path so we can work with a passion for the best reason of all. For love. - S1E6

(1/2) Newlyweds are always beautiful. They cannot fail to make the heart sing, for even the plainest faces are alive with promise. We can find grace, faith and hope, hidden in the darkest corners. - S1E6

Newborns are always beautiful. They cannot fail to make the heart sing, for even the plainest faces are alive with promise. But I've always seen beauty in old age too. Light shines through the bone, exquisite as it flickers, even as it flutters and dims towards the end. -S1E6

We face each day with expectations. If we're lucky, they're met, if not, we deal with life as it unfolds, making good the disappointments, binding what wounds we can. Optimism matters, but we can't write our own rules. Sometimes courage and resilience matter most of all. -S6E7
