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.

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

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

“If it’s important you’ll find a way. If it’s not, you’ll find an excuse.”

“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.”

“It is important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move on.”

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

“To tell someone not to be emotional is to tell them to be dead.”

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

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.

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

Time is precious, waste it wisely

The true mark of maturity is when somebody hurts you and you try to understand their situation instead of trying to hurt them back.
