Teach your children that a person is more valuable than any treasure found on this earth, teach them to love, teach them to sing, and dance, teach them to be courageous, and tell them they will be victorious on anything they put their heart and mind to, teach them honesty, and to never give up hope. ↗

I might not be physically strong. But I do believe that to survive, I need to be strong-willed. Which is more important in life? ↗
