To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children…to leave the world a better place…to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
Just Breathe
To be nobody but yourself in a world that's doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to fight. Never stop fighting.
Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.
There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me… or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don’t fit your idea of who I should be and don’t try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision. When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.

Apologizing does not always mean that you are wrong and the other person is right. It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.
“Three things you cannot recover in life: The moment after it’s missed, the word after it’s said, and the time after it’s wasted.”
I will stand by you - I will help you through
When you’ve done all you can do
If you can’t cope - I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight - I will hold you tight
And I won’t let go
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children…to leave the world a better place…to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
So what do we do? Anything - something. So long as we don’t just sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we’ve satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.
One day at a time—this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering.”
If someone is going down the wrong road, he doesn’t need motivation to speed him up. What he needs is education to turn him around.
Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine
If you are all wrapped up in yourself, you are overdressed.
Oh, my friend, it’s not what they take away from you that counts. It’s what you do with what you have left.
