Be not as others are,
but simply as who you are.
I hope you are all doing fine.
Good day!

It is a very dangerous thing to listen. If one listens one may be convinced; and a man who allows himself to be convinced by an argument is a thoroughly unreasonable person.

Anyone can put you on the right path
but they can't make you walk it, you have to make that first step
and decide if you're on the road to failure or success.
