“Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.”

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life.

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

“If you don’t know, the thing to do is not to get scared, but to learn.”

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” 

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

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.

“Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.”

“Thinking is difficult, that’s why most people judge.”

“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.”

“Gratitude is one of the most powerful human emotions. Once expressed, it changes attitude, brightens outlook, and broadens our perspective.”

It hurts when you go through something that kills you inside but you have to act like it doesn’t affect you.
