Enemies who vow not to see you achieve it and friends who say you can't do it... ARE THE SAME...!!! They just don't want you to make it happen! Stay away!

What the fertilizer does to the germinating plant is what happiness does for a depressed soul... What anger does to a person is what an acid does to its container!

When there is too much sorrow in your heart, true compassion gets its ways out of it. Don’t make a will over your sorrow, nobody needs to inherit it!

If you truly have compassion in your heart, show it by keeping your doubts to yourself and sharing your hope with those who love change!

Before you can positively and passionately pursue what your heart love to do, you must first be grateful to the one who gave you such a heart to love such a thing!

Hatred gives you nothing, takes nothing from you, but destroys everything you have! Be careful of ideas of hatred that comes into your head. Destroy them before they make nests in your mind!
