One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: To rise above the little things.   May you continue to get to know yourself as a mother, shaping into someone who is both her old self and someone completely new.   Efforts may fail.But dont fail to make efforts. Great things will always come late.There is no shortcut to success, only way is hard work….   No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, and disciplined. But no life is ever happy until it is lived for the glory of God. Keep the faith.   You might regret what you do- but you’ll you regret what you don’t do SO much more   Learn something new each day- keep your eyes, ears and most of all your mind open   God makes us brave when we’re afraid, makes us strong when we are weak, but most of all, he teaches us to hold on to him when things keep falling.   Bell is soundless until some1 rings it, song makes no sense until some2 sings it, dont hide ur feelings coz its not called feelings until others fel it.   Winners think constantly of what they can & will do. Losers think constantly of what they can not do & what they should have done….   We work for a better tommorow,but when “tommorow”comes, instead of enjoying,we again think of a better tommorow. So,let us have a better today.   Courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy … Lift us above the simple beasts and define humanity   ” It is good to remember the past but don’t let the past capture your future. The greatest thing about life ...
