At some point in your life if you're lucky you throw practicality to the wind and start living.

The secret of living is giving.

Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight.

Be grateful for whoever comes, because each guest has been sent as a guide from beyond.

Do not be embarrassed by your mistakes. Nothing can teach us better than our understanding of them. This is one of the best ways of selfeducation.

The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually disguises itself as hardwork.
