Keeping Young (စိတ္ႏွလုံးမွာ ႏုပ်ိဳပါ)

When you close up your mind like a bolted door-From then on... You start to grow old. When you think that you're too big to learn any more-from then on your heart will grow cold... And if you stop dreaming when reaching your prime-and see no far summits that tempt you to climb-You will soon fall a victim to old father Time.Day by day you will start to grow old.
When you're stuck in the groove of your old ideas-Then Youth,like a bird,flies away. If you spend anxious moments in counting years-You soon will grow weary and grey. ... But if when you wake you can take a bright view-You'll always look out on a world fresh and new and Life will hold endless surprises for you-and at heart you will never grow old.

Building Again

There's nothing to stop your from building again when you find that your castles have crashed.There's nothing to stop you from dreaming again when the things that you worked for are smashed.... There's no law to stop you from wearing a smile, though perhaps you are crying inside; there is never a reason for losing a grip on your nerve and your faith and your pride.
There's nothing to gain by recounting your woes into every listening ear---for pity and sympathy won's get you far, though it may be quite kind and sincere... Get on with the job of rebuilding your life for it's useless to sigh and complain; the best thing to do is to start out anew.Pluck up courage and try it again.
