Hope gives you
the strength to keep going
When you feel like giving up.
Don’t ever quit
believing in Yourself.
As long as you believe you Can,
You will have reason for Trying.
Don’t let anyone hold your Happiness in their Hands;
Hold it in yours, so it will always be within your Reach.
Don’t measure success or failure by material wealth,
But by how you Feel;
Our feelings determine the richness of our Lives.
Don’t let bad moments overcome You;
Be patient, and they will pass.
Don’t hesitate to reach out for Help;
We all need it from time to time.
Don’t run away from love but towards Love.
Because it is your deepest Joy.
Don’t wait for what you want to come to You.
Go after it with all that You Are,
Knowing that Life will meet you Halfway.
Don’t feel like you’ve lost
When plans and dreams fall short of your hopes.
Anytime you learn something new
About Yourself or about Life,
You have progressed.
Don’t do anything that takes away
From your Self-Respect.
Feeling good about Yourself
Is essential to feeling good about Life.
Don’t ever forget how to Laugh
Or be too proud to Cry.
Or too stubborn to Smile
Don’t ever forget a friend who truly loves You
As it could be that friend who is true to your Needs
Don’t ever forget who helped you Grow as your need for more seeds may often re-appear
