Some people are not capable of giving you what you're trying to get from them.

Don't count on others to hand your life to you.

The only person you will live your entire life with is yourself.

Don't accept that others know you better than you know yourself.

You marry at the level of your own psychological health.

Never give up on things you've always dreamed of. Your dreams will become reality by your dedication and hard work.

May you never grow too old to believe in magic and fairy tales.
