22. *Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.*
23. *Believe in miracles.*
24. *God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do.*
25. *Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.*
26. *Growing old beats the alternative of dying young.*
27. *Your children get only one childhood.*
28. *All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.*
29. *Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.*
30. *Envy is waste of time. Accept what you already have, not what you need.*
31. *The best is yet to come…*
32. *No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.*
33. *Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.”*
