“To me, beauty is natural beauty. If you’re naturally yourself, you’re beautiful.”

“You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.”

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

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

Our family is a circle of strength and love, with every birth and every union, the circle will grow, every joy shared adds more love, every crisis faced together, makes the circle stronger.

In disagreements with loved ones, deal with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past as that will only cause unnecessary resentment.

“When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But if you listen you may learn something new.”

Life is about balance. Be kind, but don’t let people abuse you. Trust, but don’t be deceived. Be content, but never stop improving yourself.

“Family is not about blood. It’s about who is willing to hold your hand when you need it the most.” 

To the world, you are a mother, to your family you are the world.

“Your emotions make you human. Even the unpleasant ones have a purpose. Don’t lock them away. If you ignore them, they just get louder and angrier.”

“We should love, not fall in love, because everything that falls, gets broken.”
