“Dignity is not negotiable. Dignity is the honor of the family.”

Never apologize for being sensitive or emotional. It’s a sign that you have big heart, and that you aren’t afraid to let others see it. Showing your emotions is a sign of strength. 

“If you salute your duty, you no need to salute anybody, but if you pollute your duty, you have to salute everybody.”

Life Doesn’t Come With A Manual. It Comes With A Mother

“Sometimes we can feel like we are not good enough, but it is important to remember that we have nothing to prove others. Love and respect yourself each and every day.”

“I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.” 

“Don’t be afraid to start over. This time you’re not starting from scratch, you’re starting from experience.”

“A friend who understands your tears is much more valuable than a lot of friends who only know your smile.”

“Every life has a measure of sorrow, and sometimes this is what awakens us.”

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.

“Why don’t you focus on where you’re going and less on where you came from?”

There are friends, there is family, and then there are friends that become family.
