Savour your life
Don’t undermine your
worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each one of us is special.
Don’t set your goals
by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
Don’t take for
granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them life is
meaningless.
Don’t let your life
slip through your fingers by living in the past. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of
your life.
Don’t give up when
you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid to
admit that you are less than perfect.
It is this fragile thread that binds us to each other.
Don’t be afraid to
encounter risks. It is taking chances
that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out
of your life by saying it is impossible to find.
The quickest way to
receive love is to give love;
The fastest way to
lose is to hold it too tightly;
And the best way to
keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through
life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been but also where you’re
going.
Life is not a race,
but a journey to be savoured each step of the way.
