Never forget where you come from and what you believe. If you stand for nothing, you’ll fall for anything.

Take advice but listen to your heart. Don’t get too old to wish on stars.

You’ll get hurt but don’t be afraid of love. You’ll fall down but you gotta get back up.

Forgive, and forgive again, but know when to run. Let go of hate, hang on tight to love.

People change, give them a second chance. Embarrass yourself, sing loud, and dance.

Don’t lose your faith, sometimes it’s all you’ll have. When you leave home, don’t forget Mom and Dad.

Trust yourself and the things you know to be true. Always remember there’s a home waiting for you.

You won’t be happy with someone else until you’re happy with who you are. Don’t be afraid to figure it out, even if it takes you far.

Be completely you and don’t change for anyone. Someday someone will love it all, and then some.

When you think you never will again, you will. When your world goes crazy, make time to just be still.

You’ll make mistakes, you might hate yourself, you’ll even wish to turn back time. But the world’s not ending, and I promise you’re going to be fine.

Forgive always, be slow to anger, love with your whole heart. Each ending is only the beginning, and a chance for a new start.

There are no rules to life, it’s a complicated thing where you have to make your own way. Whenever you’re in doubt hit your knees and pray.

I don’t know much, but this is the best of what I do: You’re beautiful. You’re smart. You’re brave. And I love you.
