Maya Angelou
Image
If you're a human being, you can attempt to do what other human beings have done. We don't understand talent any more than we understand electricity.

The main thing in one's own private world is to try to laugh as much as you cry.
Maya Angelou
Image
Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.
Maya Angelou
Image
You might encounter defeats but you must never be defeated... Love a lot. Laugh a lot at the silliest things and be very serious... love life.
Maya Angelou
Image
You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Try to be a rainbow in someone else's cloud. Do not complain. Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
