Walang palayok na walang kasukat na tungtong. Every pot has a matching lid.
Kung walang tiyaga, walang nilaga.
If you don't persevere, you can expect no reward.
Ang umaayaw ay di nagwawagi, ang nagwawagi ay di umaayaw.
A quitter never wins, a winner never quits.
Serenity Prayer: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen.
