Expect Nothing and You will Never be Disappointed

“We never lose friends. We simply learn who the real ones are.”

“You have to dream before your dreams can come true.”

“Any alleged right of one man, which necessitates the violation of the rights of another isn’t and can’t be a right.”

“You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.”

“That is what compassion does. It challenges our assumptions, our sense of self-limitation, worthlessness, of not having a place in the world, our feelings of loneliness and estrangement. These are narrow, constrictive states of mind. As we develop compassion, our hearts open.”

“Whatever life gives you, even if it hurts, just be strong and act like you’re okay. Strong walls shake but never collapse.”

“If you want to find out who your real friends are, sink the ship. The first ones to jump aren’t your friends.”

“Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn’t stop for anybody.”

If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” 

Be proud, you survived the days you thought you couldn’t.
