Proverbs of Life

Proverbs Of Life

If you don't have a purpose in life, then
you don't have a life.

It is not what the world can offer you. It is
what you can offer the world that counts.

If you think nobody loves you, think twice.
Someone loves you very much.

It is not how people can help you that counts.
It's how you can help people that matters.

If you have lost your best friend today, make
a new one tomorrow. It will make a difference.

If your life is not going good for you and you 
don't know why. Analyze your life and you will
find some answers.

Don't count the bad times you've had in your
life. Count the blessings you had instead...
