TAKE NO ONE FOR GRANTED.
FORGIVE OFTEN,
FOR YOU NEVER KNOW
WHAT MAY HAPPEN TOMORROW.

IN BETWEEN THE BEGINNING AND THE END
THE BEGINNING AND THE END OF LIFE
ARE USUALLY THE SAME.
WHAT YOU DO IN BETWEEN,
THAT IS YOUR STAGE TO PERFORM.

WHAT WE STAND FOR
JUST IN CASE YOU FORGET:
ALWAYS REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE,
WHO YOU REPRESENT, AND
WHAT YOU STAND FOR.
MANY A TIME,
WE TEND TO FORGET WHO WE ARE,
WHERE WE COME FROM AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,
WHAT WE STAND FOR.

PRACTICE BUILDS CO0NFIDENCE
PRACTICE DOES NOT NECESSARILY MAKE PERFECT.
BUT IT SURE DOES MAKE THINGS EASIER.
NEVER TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED, THOUGH.
YOU MAY KNOW THE ROUTINE.
PRACTICE BUILDS CO0NFIDENCE.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE?
WHEN I SEE LIFE AND ASK OFTEN ENOUGH,
“WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF IT, LIFE, THAT IS?”;
I AM REMINDED THAT LIFE IS FOR THE LIVING.
IN ORDER TO BEST DO THAT,
I BELIEVE THAT WE GIVE OF OURSELVES TO OTHERS
SO THAT THEY CAN EXPERIENCE THIS JOY OF LIFE.
THEY CAN PAY IT FORWARD.

DESIRE TO CHANGE
STATUS QUO IS NOT DOING ANYTHING DIFFERENT AND GETTING THE SAME RESULTS.
IF YOU WANT CHANGE, YOU MUST DESIRE IT.
IT HAS TO BE GREATER THAN YOUR DESIRE TO
REMAIN SAME-SAME.

STAND AND BE COUNTED
I HAVE LEARNED THAT WHAT I HAVE IN LIFE,
DOES NOT REALLY MATTER MUCH.
IT IS WHO I HAVE IN MY LIFE,
THE ONES WHO ARE WITH ME DURING MY GREAT DAYS AND NOT SO GREAT DAYS,
THE ONES WHO WILL STAND AND BE COUNTED
WHEN ASKED TO DO SO.
THEY ARE THE ONES WHO MATTER MOST.
