You Only Live Once

You only live once so don't spend your life being depressed.
You are a fantastic human being and that makes you blessed.
Please don't feel sorry for yourself or think negative thoughts.
Be filled with joy because of the friends and family you've got.
Don't beat yourself up because of the wrong things you've done.
You are a very special person so kick up your heels and have fun.
You shouldn't feel bad because of your flaws, everybody else has flaws too.
Just do good things and treat people with respect, that's all you have to do.
