TRUE BEAUTY

The fruit of your own hard work is the sweetest. #<Author:0x00007ff5f08d8090>

HARD WORK

PRACTICE

Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. #<Author:0x00007ff5f08b0568>

GOOD MANNERS

BRAVERY

May Light always surround you;
Hope kindle and rebound you.
May your Hurts turn to Healing;
Your Heart embrace Feeling.
May Wounds become Wisdom;
Every Kindness a Prism.
May Laughter infect you;
Your Passion resurrect you.
May Goodness inspire your Deepest Desires.
Through all that you Reach For,
May your arms Never Tire.

HOPE
