“This life is your canvas; what will you make it?”

“Imagine your life is a big canvas. Picture it in your mind and think about the beginnning of your painting of life.You're fourteen yours old, and you are lucky if you have one seventh painted. Now imagine the rest of the canvas is totaly empty. Every day you live, and every month and every year, means another inch that is painted on that canvas. You're going to be painting this empty canvas with your life and when you get to the end of it, what is that painting going to look like?”

“Make your lives a masterpiece, you only get one canvas.”

“The sky is a canvas, so paint your own life.”

“Life is a canvas. Don't let others create it for you, you have to create it the way you want it to be, and I'd you mess up make it something beautiful and learn from it.”

“That is what you're making of the end of your mother's life, child. What will you make of your own?”
