“It’s not what we have in life, but who we have in our life that matters.”

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

“There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.”

“You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.”

“The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.”

“If you want to find out who your real friends are, sink the ship. The first ones to jump aren’t your friends.”

“Characterize people by their actions, and you will never be fooled by their words.”

Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.

“Don’t focus on negative things; focus on the positive, and you will flourish.”

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

“Sometimes the things that hurt the most teach us the best lessons.”
