As a student at the University of Idaho I was a member of The Student Alumni Relations Board (SArb). One of the things we did at most of our retreats was a "Quote Wall". On the wall (piece of paper) everyone was suppose to write a quote by someone during the retreat. We would finish by reviewing what the situation was and who said it. It was always a source of a good laugh and reflection.

I was neurotic for years. I was anxious and depressed and selfish. Everyone kept telling me to change. I resented them and I agreed with them, and I wanted to change, but simply couldn't, no matter how hard I tried. Then one day someone said to me, "Don't change. I love you just as you are." Those words were music to my ears: "Don't Change, Don't change. Don't change... I love you as you are." I relaxed. I came alive. And suddenly I changed!
