Thich Nhat Hanh on Self-love

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself

Song Lyric Wisdom: Like a Warrior

Live Like a Warrior

Feel like the world don't love you
They only want to push you away
Some days people don't see you
You feel like you're in the way
Today you feel, as if everyone hates
Pointing their fingers, looking at your mistakes
You do good, they want great
No matter what you give they stilll want to take
Give your love and they throw it back
You give your heart they go on attack
When there's nothing left for you,
Only thing that you can do, SAYYYYYY

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Fight like a Warrior,

Today, today, live like you wanna,
Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Live like a Warrior

Some things you should let go, there only gonna pull you down,
Just like weight on your shoulder they are only gonna make you drown
We all swing high, we all swing low,
We all got secrets people don't know
We all got dreams we can't let go,
We want to brave, Don't be afraid
OHHHHHH

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Fight like a Warrior,

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Live like a Warrior

Your heart is too heavy from things you carry a long time,

You been up you been down, tired and you don't know why,
But you're never gonna go back, you only live one life

Let go, let go, let goooooo, Let go, let go, let goooooo,

Today, today, live like you wanna,
Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Fight like a Warrior,

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Live like a Warrior

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Fight like a Warrior,

Today, today, live like you wanna,

Let yesterday burn and throw it in a fire, in a fire, in a fire,
Live like a Warrior

Live Like a Warrior

Art Wisdom

In our house
we are real
we make mistakes
we say I'm sorry
we give second chances
we have fun
we give hugs
we forgive
we do really loud
we are family
we love
