- You can be happy, you can be successful -- life is what YOU make it!
- We all have the ability to make people smile
- You choose how to allocate your time -- & with whom
- Family IS worth making time for -- it's not a given that they'll always be there
- There is nothing more worthwhile nor which brings more joy than laughter
- It doesn't matter what you believe in -- so long as you find something to believe in
- You'll never know the true impact you have upon another person
- You must be careful not to be too harsh, yet likewise to not be too soft -- this is a difficult balance which i have not yet mastered
- Love is worth the effort & the risk
- A façade is never the full story -- this is true both in architecture & people "Everything we hear is opinion not fact, everything we see is perspective not truth" Marcus Aurelius
- Age dictates neither wisdom nor maturity
- Make healthy lifestyle choices
- Invest in quality wardrobe pieces
- Never apologize for something which brings you sincere delight
- Take time to be disconnected -- to breath in fresh cut grass, crisp picked apples, the sea breeze, & rain in the air
- You cannot be part of a coherent couple if you cannot be healthy & content as yourself
- The little things are not as important as you think they are
- Impossible is only a word
- Never stop learning
- Make time to kiss passionately & hug slowly
- Don't rush through life, it will go by too fast as it is
- Submerse yourself in a culture entirely apart from your own -- it will remind you that although some people may seem strange to you, you seem strange to some people
- You're not alone, even when you think you are
- Exercise & take care of your body
- Gratitude is the greatest lesson I have learnt to date
