In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too.

Life is a song - sing it. Life is a game - play it. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a dream - realize it. Life is a sacrifice - offer it. Life is love - enjoy it.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life define yourself.
