Don’t give up. Just be you. Coz life’s too short to be anybody else.

Never Give Up
Hidden Happiness
When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
— Helen Keller

March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life’s path.
— Kahlil Gibran in Wisdom and I

And for anybody who is on the downside of advantage, and relying purely on courage — it is possible.
— Russell Crowe at the 73rd Annual Academy Awards winning Best Actor for Gladiator
Look Inward & Outward
We need to look inward to rediscover excellence and outward to realize it.
— Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser Al-Missned, First Lady of Qatar
