Friday Frills

Do not take anything as being forever

because forever is only as long as today. 

Know that the people who are richest

Are not those who have the most,

But those who need the least. 

We are at our strongest when life is at its worst,

And at our weakest when life no longer offers a challenge.

It is wiser not to expect, but to hope,

For in expecting you ask for disappointment,

Whereas in hoping you invite surprise.

Unhappiness doesn't come from not having something that you want,

But from the lack of something inside that you need.

There are things to hold on too, and things to let go,

And letting go doesn't mean you lose,

But that you acquire that which has been waiting around the corner.

Most of all,

Remember to use your dreams as a way of knowing yourself better,

And as an inspiration to reach for the stars...
