I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end.
Life is about knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.

I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE COMMON.
IT IS MY RIGHT TO BE UNCOMMON.
IF I CAN I SEEK OPPORTUNITY, NOT SECURITY.
I WANT TO TAKE THE CALCULATED RISK, TO DREAM AND TO BUILD, TO FAIL AND TO SUCCEED. I REFUSE TO BARTER INCENTIVE FOR A DOLE.
I PREFER THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE TO THE GUARANTEED EXISTENCE, THE THRILL OF FULFILLMENT TO THE STALE CALM OF UTOPIA.
I WILL NOT TRADE FREEDOM FOR BENEFICENCE NOR MY DIGNITY FOR A HANDOUT.
I WILL NEVER COWER BEFORE ANY MASTER NOR BEND TO ANY THREAT.
IT IS MY HERITAGE TO STAND ERECT, PROUD AND UNAFRAID, TO THINK AND ACT FOR MYSELF, ENJOY THE BENEFIT OF MY CREATIONS AND TO FACE THE WORLD BOLDLY AND SAY, THIS I HAVE DONE.

Accept that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue.
Always keep your words soft & sweet, in case you have to eat them.
Always read stuff that will make you look good in case you die in the middle of it.
Drive carefully, it is not only cars that can be recalled by their makers.
If you can’t be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
Since the early worm gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
The second mouse gets the cheese.
Birthdays are good, the more you have, the longer you live.
A truly happy person can enjoy the scenery when they are lost.
