"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered: Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank people will try to cheat you: Be honest anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight: Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous of you: Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow: Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Teresa agree<3
"After awhile you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learn that love doesn't mean possession and company doesn't mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child. And you learn to build your roads today, because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. After awhile you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, that you really are strong, and you really do have worth. And you learn . . .and you learn . .

Prove that you are who you always thought you were, not who they said you had to be. Life is just a chance to grow a soul Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile. Expect nothing, live frugally on surprise Because I have loved life, I shall have no sorrow to die. Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived. Life is like an onion: You peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep I love my past. I love my present. I'm not ashamed of what I've had, and I'm not sad because I have it no longer. You must be the change you wish to see in the Winners take time to relish their work, knowing that scaling the mountain is what makes the view from the top so exhilarating. Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself Life is made up of years that mean nothing and moments that mean it all Every new day is another chance to change your life There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. The greatest risk in life is not taking one
