“Sometimes life doesn’t give you what you want, not because you don’t deserve it, but because you deserve so much more.” 

“Don’t lose hope. When the sun goes down, the stars come out.”

“Seek respect, not attention. It lasts longer.”

“You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.”

If your goals set you apart from the crowd. Stay alone.

“We should respect all religions and just believe in peace, kindness and harmony.”

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

“Don’t go through life, grow through life.”

Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.
