My mother taught me much of what I know. In a simple list it would go;
Sharing is caring if given with the best of intentions could make the world a little better of a place
Your actions will speak louder than any words think of the consequences
Your words have power you do not have to scream some of the most influential people were known for being the quietest.
Knowledge is power learn as much as you can but don't forget to live a little in between.
Meet as many people as you can and learn their stories.
Do not judge someone until you learn their stories.
The world is a crazy place of madness find your happiness and do not let it go.
A smile and can you way more than any frown can.
Help those who you can but don't forget about yourself.
When all else fails a hug will solve just about anything.
I could continue this list for a long time without running out of ideas. You see my mother believes in the simplest of lessons because if everything else is in absolute chaos then at least these lessons will be easy to learn and share. For her, everything is about actions and what we can do with them. For these simple lessons, I am forever grateful they have guided me in my life to where I am now.
