Hmmm recently i just read this book CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE TEENAHGE SOUL. ..! And people trust me i read this line...thought.. proverb.. tolks..call it anything..i like it..and probably..learnt a lot from it..
It starts wit..AFTER A WHILE..
After a while you learn the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul,
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and
company doesn't mean security,
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises ,
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head
Up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult,
not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for
plans.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if
you get too much.
So plant your own garden and decorate you own
soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you
flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure...
That you really are strong,
And you really do have worth..!
