Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what.

Remember

Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say: 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember, to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

The key to happiness

The secret to happiness is not to get what you want, but to want what you already have.

If you think about it, most discontent grows from want.

We want more stuff, more excitement, more pleasure.

When we don't get those things, we're resentful and unsatisfied.

Take away the want, and you take away the unhappiness.

When your quality of life is tied to your desires, fulfillment is a shadow that escapes your view.

Like trying to imagine a new color, the harder you look, the harder it is to see.

Does this mean you stop setting goals and striving for a healthy lifestyle and better life?

No. It means you can appreciate life regardless of the outcome. It means you can relish the pursuit while accepting the possibility of failure. It means you can still enjoy the ride.

Happiness is not a destination--it's a way of life.
