“The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.”

Never regret being a good person, to the wrong people. Your behavior says everything about you, and their behavior says enough about them.

A mother is your first friend, your best friend, your forever friend.

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

“A friend is one who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden.”

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

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

“When a flower doesn’t bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.”

Tomorrow is a new day

“Anything that costs your peace is too expensive”

Your child needs your presence more than your presents. – Jesse Jackson

Every family has a person who breaks the chain of poverty, Be that person to your family.
