Living Life to the Fullest

Don't let go of hope
Hope gives you the strength to keep going
When you feel like giving up

Don't ever quit believing in yourself
As long as you believe you can, 
You will have reason for trying

Don't let anyone hold your happiness in their hands
Hold it in yours, so it will always be within you reach

Don't measure success or failure by material wealth, 
But by how you feel
Our feelings determine the richness of our lives

Don't let bad moments overcome you.
Be patient, and they will pass.

Don't hesitate to reach out for help.
We all need it from time to time.

Don't run away from love but towards love.
Because it is your deepest joy.

Don't wait for what you want to come to you,
Go after it with all that you are, 
Knowing that life will meet you halfway.

Don't feel like you've lost
When plans and dreams fall short of your hopes
Anytime you learn something new
About yourself or about life, 
You have progressed.

Don't do anything that takes away from your self-respect
Feeling good about yourself is essential to feeling good about life.

Don't ever forget how to laugh
Or be too proud to cry
Or too stubborn to smile.

Don't ever forget a friend who truly loves you 
As it could be that friend who is true to your needs

Don't ever forget who helped you grow as your need
for more seeds may often re-appear

With all the above live life to its fullest!
