Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.

Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find time. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.

Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit - are made of glass. If you drop these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for it.

Life is not a race, but a journey to be savoured each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift. That's why we call it the present.
