Life is yours to live, so don't make it unnecessarily hard on yourself. Live within your capabilities, do your best, and honor your limits. Much of our pressure comes from wanting too much, and much of our pain stems from taking things too seriously. A boat moves forward because the oars paddle backward; slow and steady brings true stability, and sometimes retreating is the best way to move forward.

You can never predict at which crossroad life will place a hurdle, nor can you foresee at which stage it will suddenly offer you love.

Therefore, the future remains promising—and everything happens for a reason.
