"You are Beautiful" "Embrace Yourself" "Value Yourself" "Don't confuse your path with your destination. Just because it's stormy now doesn't mean that you aren't headed for sunshine" "Be Positive" "Nothing worth having comes easy" "Don't watch the clock, do what it does, KEEP GOING" "If it doesn't challenge you it won't change you" "I can and I WILL"
