1. \u201cThere\u2019s no use crying over spilled milk\u201d\n
One of my favorites is really a double life lesson. First, don\u2019t cry over the little things. Spilled milk (real or metaphorical) takes two seconds to clean up and doesn\u2019t affect your life beyond that. Second, don\u2019t obsess over things you can\u2019t change. Instead, clean yourself up and get a new glass of milk!\n
2. \u201cWait until you have children of your own.\u201d\n
She may have meant it as a warning, but she was so right. The moment you become a mom yourself, you suddenly realize that everything she ever said was spot on.\n
3. \u201cIf you can\u2019t say something nice, don\u2019t say anything at all.\u201d\n
I can\u2019t say anything nice about people who don\u2019t listen to this advice, so I\u2019ll do as my mom says and not say anything at all! Sometimes it\u2019s just better to stay silent.\n
4. \u201cIf someone doesn\u2019t love you for who you are, that\u2019s their problem, not yours.\u201d\n
In other words, don\u2019t ever let someone make you feel like less of a person just because they don\u2019t like you. It\u2019s on them, not you.\n
5. \u201cIf your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do it, too?\u201d\n
This was mom\u2019s way of reminding us to think for ourselves. Never just go with the flow, because that flow can take you right over a cliff.\n
6. \u201cThere is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience and a heart at peace.\u201d\n
In other words, live a life that never gives you a reason to feel guilty and you\u2019ll sleep like a dream.\n
7. Motherhood is the one job where your goal is to become obsolete\n
\u201cKids don\u2019t stay with you if you do it right. It\u2019s the one job where, the better you are, the more surely you won\u2019t be needed in the long run.\u201d
\n\u2015 Barbara Kingsolver\n
8. The more we understand, the less we fear\n
\u201cNothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.\u201d Marie Curie\n
9. Courage is our greatest form of protection\n
\u201cThe best protection any woman can have… is courage.\u201d -Elizabeth Cady Stanton\n
10. Never let the darkness around you dim your life\u2019s light\n
\u201cLife is a hard battle anyway. If we laugh and sing a little as we fight the good fight of freedom, it makes it all go easier. I will not allow my life\u2019s light to be determined by the darkness around me.\u201d \u2013 Sojourner Truth\n
11. Leave this world a better place than you found it\n
\u201cLeave every place you go, everything you touch, a little better for your having been there.\u201d -Julie Andrews\n
12. Perfection is accepting your flaws\n
\u201cBeing perfect is being flawed, accepting it, and never letting it make you feel less than your best.\u201d \u2013 Jessica Alba\n
13. Kindness is its own reward\n
\u201cCarry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.\u201d \u2013 Diana, Princess of Wales\n
14. Words have power. Learn to use yours.\n
\u201cOnce you can express yourself, you can tell the world what you want from it. All the changes in the world, for good or evil, were first brought about by words.\u201d Jackie Kennedy\n
15. The courageous never accept defeat\n
\u201cWhen life seems hard, the courageous do not lie down and accept defeat; instead, they are all the more determined to struggle for a better future.\u201d -Queen Elizabeth II\n

“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.” \u2013 Mother Theresa\n
17. Never worry about being liked\n
\u201cWorry about being respected, never worry about being liked because that\u2019s the trap.\u201d -Jada Pinkett Smith\n

21. A hug from your mom lasts forever\n
\u201cA mom\u2019s hug lasts long after she lets go.\u201d\n
22. Moms are truly our #1 cheerleaders\n
