The best inheritance a parent can give to their children is a few quality minutes of their time each day.

One of the best feelings comes when you realize that you are perfectly OK and happy without the things you once thought you needed the most.

It’s your choice. You just have to decide that you’re not going to put your energy there. You must say, “I'm going to decide to let this go.” You can embrace it, you can become a prisoner of bitterness and resentment, or you can just say “I'm going to live my life and be happy.”

It's always nice to have someone in your life that makes you smile even when they're not around.

If someone comes into your life and becomes a part of you, but for some reason he/she couldn't stay, don't cry too much. Be thankful that your paths crossed and somehow he/she made you happy, even if it was just for a little while.

Eye contact, a quick smile, and a genuine "thank you" go a long way. Usually further than you'd think.

In life, you just have to live not caring what they think of you, shake off the drama, and prove to YOURSELF that you’re better than they think you are.

Friends are needed always, for joy and sorrow.

When people walk out of your life, let them. You might miss them, but remember that you’re not the one who gave up.

All things happen for a reason, even though it sometimes takes an eternity before we learn those reasons.

Remember, your friends are your anchor when your world is trying to fall apart around you. We're here for each other.

Don't live your life with hate in your heart. You will only be hurting yourself more than the people you hate.

Be the kind of person others admire, can count on, trust, and enjoy spending time with. After you have developed that reputation, people will start to ask you what you do and you will be amazed at how many people will want to work with you. You will attract others based on your character.

To be beautiful means you need to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.

Don't ever assume you’re going to get a second chance. Not everything comes twice in life.

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend. That’s what I need most.

Smile. Let people know there is still hope!
