Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.

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

Not in doing what you like, but in liking what you do is the secret of happiness

“Show your anger when needed. People need to know what irritates you and what doesn’t. But, crucially, remain internally calm. Your anger is only a tool. Don’t become its puppet.”

Don’t mistake silence for weakness. Smart people don’t plan big moves out loud.

“When you are looking at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.”

“A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there.”

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

Love Me or Hate Me

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

“Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn’t stop for anybody.”

“Don’t worry about those who talk behind your back, they are behind you for a reason.”
