Dream what you want to dream ; go where you want to go ; be what you want to be , because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. Always put yourself in the other's shoes . If you feel that it hurts you , it probably hurts the person too . A careless word may kindle strife ; a cruel word may wreck a life ; a timely word may release stress ; a loving word may heal and bless . The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way .
