Life quotes
You are who you chose to be.A bend in the road isn’t the end of the road unless you take the wrong turn.The only things in life you should regret are the risks in life you didn’t take.You know you love someone when you want them to be happy even if their happiness means you’re not a part of it.Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It’s means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections.Work like you don’t need the money, love like you’ll never get hurt, dance like no one is watching.To live our lives in our own way, to reach for the goals we have set for ourselves, to be what we want to be, that is success
