You betcha!
You young ladies are special and I worry you might forget that sometimes. I don't want you to forget that. The world is a better place with you in it. My world has been made better by knowing each and every one of you. ❤️

Except that it wasn't written by Mark Twain. It was written by songwriters Susanna Clark and Richard Leigh in the late 1980s in their song "Come From the Heart".
But here are some non-snarky inspirational quotes from old Sam Clemens:
"Love is not a product of reasonings and statistics. It just comes--none knows whence--and cannot explain itself."
"Happiness is a Swedish sunset--it is there for all, but most of us look the other way and lose it."
"Always obey your parents, when they are present. Most parents think they know more than you do; and you can generally make more by humoring that superstition than you can by acting on your own better judgement."

That's fine. It's been attributed to several different people. I started this thread to be uplifting for the girls.

Are you being serious Tatiana?
Here Kim is trying to let you kids know how important you are and you take it to obeying your parents only when they're looking at you?
Whoever wrote or said it isn't relevant. The message is. Do what is important to you. Don't change for others. Live your life for you and not for everyone else. Be you and find the joy in living.

Nah she's just focusing on the smart-ass quote from Mark Twain I left. He was a humorist, after all.

Since Kim made this and keeps EVERYTHING it's easy enough to fix. Take off the Mark Twain and we can hear what is being said.  |
