Notable Quotes
· "Placing a cornerstone on the building where you refer to everything is important to me. This project is a significant point in your life and the flow of your life. Make it memorable and meaningful by choosing to think about it that way."
· "When building a house, people often mark significant events. I encourage you to do the same. It's an effort made by a team, including your architect, financier, family, realtor, and craftsman. It's a culmination of telling a story that takes a village, even if only a few people use the house."
· "Choosing to love yourself, regardless of your actions, is possible because God loves you unconditionally. Moving forward should not involve punishing or sabotaging yourself."
· "Living in a cardboard box doesn't diminish the importance of choosing love. However, it's equally important to remind ourselves of the intention behind our actions when building something with materials like sand or wood. Every contribution to the story of life matters."
· "Consider what the cornerstone means to you. Is it marking a pinnacle or the start of a new season in your life? Is it a statement to others or yourself? Or are you trying to bind people together? Reflect on its significance."Top of Form
