QUOTE TO LEAVE BEHIND: “In a world where you can be anything, be optimistic, genuine, and invest in gaining knowledge. Optimism keeps you motivated and helps you develop a positive outlook on all aspects of life. Genuineness helps you create a strong circle with kindhearted people. Knowledge is the one thing that can never be taken from you.”
