Play from your Heart!

  Love is like playing the piano,

      First you must learn to play by the rules,

       then you must forget the rules and 

     Play from your Heart!

     

Educate a Woman

You educate a man; you educate a man.

You educate a woman; you educate a generation!

Musical journey- Life

                                                    Life is like a Piano,
                                                    the white keys represent the happiness,
                                                    and the black show sadness.
                                                    But as you go through life's journey,
                                                    remember that the black keys also create music!

All that matters!

The most important things is to enjoy your life, to be happy

It's all that matters!

Life- as explained by Mother Teresa

                                       Very inspiring words from Mother Teresa:

                                        Life is an opportunity, benefit from it;

                                        Life is beauty, admire it;

                                        Life is a dream, realize it;

                                        Life is a challenge, meet it;

                                        Life is a duty, complete it

                                        Life is a game,play it;

                                        Life is a promise, fulfill it;

                                        Life is a sorrow, overcome it;

                                        Life is a song, sing it;

                                        Life is a struggle, accept it;

                                        Life is a tragedy, confront it;

                                        Life is an adventure, dare it;

                                        Life is a luck, make it;

                                        Life is too precious, do not destroy it;

                                        Life is life, fight for it

Smile because it happened!

Don't Cry because it's over,

Smile because it happened!

Life is simple

Life is simple, BUT,

We insist on making it complicated

Spring is sure to follow!

No matter how long is the winter,

Spring is sure to follow!  -proverb
