You don't get to decide what your child becomes or how they live their adult life, however if you are open and accepting to anything they do choose, you will know their story and have your adult child as a life-long friend.

If you desire love and a relationship but you spend your days busy with work, family and friends you will end up alone. Make flirting, dating and getting to know people a priority so you can find the soul mate that you crave.

You may be happy in life and love how you do things but do not judge someone elses path. They may not be on the same road as you but it does not mean their route is wrong.

Don't be so busy earning a living that you forget to live a life.

You may not always get your way but it never hurts to try!

Always remember that people are responding to the kind of energy you put out. If you are not liking what is being mirrored back at you then you need to take a look at you first, don't blame the others for giving back to you what you put out.

Worry less about what people will think of you and more about what is the right thing to do.

You can try all day to be perfect and control everything within your reach but know that you are wasting your time. Perfection is not possible and control only lasts momentarily.

You may be moving too fast so take some time to slow down. If you don't stop to breathe and relax you will miss everything.

Not all friendships are meant to last. Identify the ones that are worth investing your time in and move on from the ones that bring you down.

Life can't get you down if your positive thoughts are always there to lift you up.

If the past haunts you then you have not dealt with it. Face your fears, emotions and issues and move forward. You can't change what happened then but you can make life better now.

Every couple should have a life outside of one another. Share solo friend and family time independent of your mate and never feel guilty for that. You had a life before you met your partner and you will want one if things don't work out. Never lose your individuality.

You are alive so live.

It's when you are at your lowest that you can be your greatest. Use the difficult time as a way to fuel your next best move.

When you are facing challenges in your life don't let your heart and mind get defeated. Giving up and feeling there is no solution to your problem creates a negative situation. Having hope and seeing the good in the bad will get you moving in the right direction.

If you woke up today then you were blessed with another day to live life so be THANKFUL. Every day is a gift and another chance to make your life amazing.

When setting boundaries with people you love have a non-threatening approach. Give your loved one room to be upset and don't take their initial response personal. With real loving relationships there is always a resolution to the problem.

Respect will be given to those who give respect in return. Love will be shared with those who know how to share love in return. Time will be spent with those who know how to give quality time in return. Relationships are two sided, if both people are not contributing fairly, it's not worth the time or effort to try to make it work.

Whatever you do, don't be THAT GIRL.

Be clear and detailed with your expectations of your children. They need consistency every minute of every day or they will find areas in which to rebel. Without constant follow-up they will not listen. Without heartfelt love they will not care.

Be careful in how you approach someone with your judgements and opinions. Many people are not open or willing to face their truth.

Follow your heart always. If you feel something is not right then it's not right. Move on with your head held high, trusting that something better awaits.

It's not what your intention is behind your words, it's how people perceive them that matters.

Don't miss people who don't miss you!
