That's Life


Laugh so hard that even sorrow smiles at you.



Fight so strong that even fate accepts its defeat.



Love so true that even hatred walks out of the way.



And live life so well that even death loves to see you exist.

Perfect One

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.” ― Bob Marley http://www.michaelarnoldart.com/BobMarley.jpg

Remember also Angela Duckworth's Ted talk on Grit: The power of passion and perseverance. Optimism, a positive outlook. "You can do it!" Having a mentor, because it takes a village to raise a child  Also, I'd like to add another point: Prayer. This will give one an extra push and a clarity of mind.
