Proverbs, Ad Lib

Broken, make piece with your pieces and part ways with anything that threatens your peace. Leave the negativity and toxicity laying firm on the ground. Gravitate towards people who perpetuate your growth. Give thanks to anyone who has been enough of a saint to pick up your slack. Be grateful, don't take the air you breathe for granted. Hustle when you have to, stay humble and remember to rest. Visit home often, offer help to others in need, nothing is something big to someone. Cout your blessings, one by one, the good outweighs the bad, a million to one. For better or worse, have your own back. Don't indulge in self hatred, self doubt, or get stuck in the guilt. Get over yourself, gracefully. Let go of the binds that tie you down to solid ground. A heavy heart will only weigh you down. Be wrong once in a while, it won't kill you. Be kind, always and kill of counterproductive thoughts in your mind. Master the art of failure, harness a sense of humor, experience hunger, the desire for more of everything. Be mindful, meticulous ad have mercy. Trust your instincts, relax and unwind, get lost in the sound of your favorite song. Learn how to manage time, accomplish your goals, one task one day at a time. Remember to give yourself room to breathe. Slow down, immerse yourself, fully, every second counts. Live in the present, pray often. Learn to sit in the silence, appreciate the quiet and quit hindering yourself. Keep your head held high, trade your fear for faith in hopes of finding yourself. Always follow good advice, know when enough is enough and always defend your beliefs and values. Most of all, get busy living life, because life is short and there isn't a moment to lose.
