| Motto
of life: There are always three sides to a story - yours, mine and the truth. He who god bless no man curse. No man is an Island.The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man things of comfort. Without music, life is a journey through a desert. For everything you have missed, you have gained something else; and for everything you gain, you lose something. Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them. Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you would rather have talked. Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause. 'Don't hate the sinner, hate the sin'. 'Some things are meant to be & some things are not meant to be'. 'What goes around, comes around'. 'If u don't ask, u you don't get'. 'No point crying over spilt milk'What comes around goes around!", "Things happen 4 a reason!", "As 1 door closes, another 1 opens," "Money don't make a person!", "Do what u wanna do & don't think about what others will think", "What's inside ur <3 is what counts!", "Our actions determine the reactions!," "Becareful what u wish 4"!!!! "Keep away from people who try 2 belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great 1s make u feel that u 2, can become great, " + more & loads more... |
