The moment maybe temporary but the memory is forever. – BUD MEYER It’s not whether you get knocked down. It’s whether you get up again. – VINCE LOMBARDI Do not give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other. Do not be afraid to be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. In God’s time you’ll fall in love for the right reasons, to the right person. When that time comes, that love will be worth the long wait, the tears and the pain. Then you’ll forget you ever cried. Funny how we set qualifications while we are in the process of finding the person who’s best for us, when at the back of our minds we know that the one we love will always be an exception to the rule. Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Do not dismiss your dreams, to be without dreams is to be without hope; to be without hope is to be without purpose. When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look back so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened us. – HELEN KELLER If you can’t sleep then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It’s the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep. – DALE CARNEGIE Do not let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past nor for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life. Do not set your goals as what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. Life is not a race but a journey to be savored each step of the way. Don’t ask yourself what the world need: Ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world need is people who come alive. – HAROLD WHITMAN
