A creed for life
Don't underestimate yourself
by comparing yourself to others.
It is precisely because we are
All different, we are all unique.
Don't set your goals based on others.
Only I know what is good for you.
Always stay attuned to your deepest desires.
Hold on to them as you hold on to life
for without them, life is nothing.
Don't let life slip through your fingers
whether by dwelling on the past or dreaming of the future.
Live your life day by day,
and you will live each day of your life intensely.
Don't give up as long as you still have
Something to give.
Nothing is ever lost…
as long as you keep fighting.
Don't be afraid to admit
that you are not perfect.
It is this fragile link
that binds us together.
Don't be afraid to take risks.
It is by taking risks
that courage is learned.
Do not rule out love from life
by claiming that it does not exist.
The best way to find love
is to give it
The best way to lose it
to keep him a prisoner;
and the best way to keep it
to give him wings.
Don't smother your dreams.
To have no dreams is to be without hope;
To be hopeless is to wander without purpose.
Do not run forward throughout your entire life
so that you forget where you come from and where you are going.
Life is not a race,
but a journey that must be savored
each step.
