41 " Seek knowledge. Knowledge is your tool to know right from wrong, to understand life and responsibilities, to learn what to do and what to avoid.It is the tool that helps you grow, improve, develop, and be a better human being.With knowledge, you can maintain your self-confidence and grow a clean conscience. "

42 " Learn from professionals and experts to save you time and effort. The shortest way to learn something is by learning from those who spent long years gaining the experience and reaching professionalism. Their knowledge is what will help you make fewer mistakes and errors in what you want to learn. "
43 " Small advice can seem trivial, unnecessary, and unworthy, but in fact, it might be able to save a life, prevent an accident, and lead to a better life.Don't hesitate to share your advice when it seems right. "
44 " It is strange when we expect all students to do well academically and ignore the fact that individuals' abilities vary. If a child/kid/teenager cannot do well in academics and shows signs of distraction, it is an indication that his mind isn't in the strict form and obligations of the school curriculum.His cleverness and creativeness could show in other aspects of life. It could be in arts, sports, photography, computer world, gardening, carpentry, or any other field in life.Judging students' based on their grades and accusing them of failure is an excuse for the limited space the educational system provides to students to succeed in life. "
45 " A healthy society is a place where the strong fend for the weak, and the rich give to the poor. It is the place where people complete each other and feel each other's troubles and needs.Caring, compassion, mercifulness, and feeling responsible are the four ruling values in such societies. "
46 " In a harsh, cruel world where success is only measured by financial income, the higher moral values are getting lost and forgotten. No one counts your efforts, good deeds, struggle, and giving unless if these deeds make money. Money nowadays, unfortunately, is the fake God everyone follows. If you make solid profits you are a human being worth respect, but if you are struggling and working so hard in life, yet your struggle and good deeds don't make you the money you need, you only worth neglecting.For all those who struggle to live another day by doing the right thing, hang in there, God is with you and better days are coming too by God’s will. "
47 " Compassion, kindness, empathy, sympathy, mercy, and understanding are six connected values that should be implanted in the young generation, as they are what motivates people to help and stand for each other. A heart that is filled with mercifulness is a heart that will help its society and the whole world to continue, improve, and thrive. "
48 " Keep looking at the finishing line in your way to achieve your dreams. Each step you take will carry you closer to your goal. Sometimes you will need to run, sometimes you will slow down to a walk, and sometimes you might need to take a break. Evaluate your effort, improve, and keep going; the only thing you will do wrong is to quit. Quitting will never take you anywhere but farther from your ambition and from all the effort you made so far. "
49 " Learning how to draw is just like learning how to write, you only need to find a good teacher, and practice a lot. Just remember all those empty pages you filled as a child with your shaky handwriting that looked like chickens' scribbles or ants steps, these efforts are what led you to have steady and beautiful handwriting later on as an adult. "
50 " The purer your choice of words is the higher intellect and ethical balance you have. It is strange to live in a time where using low language is an indication of free spirit and confidence.Harming peoples’ ears by using low words and insults is disrespectful both to others and yourself. Mind your manners when dealing with people in life or social media. "
51 " People who don't take things for granted are the ones who know the value of contributing and sharing in life. Feeling grateful to the blessings around you makes you a person with a living heart who can appreciate God's blessings, enjoy life, and feel the responsibility towards others too. "
52 " عاد ابني عمر مع ابن أخي من لعب الكرة في فناء دارنا قبيل أذان المغرب، قال لي متأففا:" يا للحر!!"، قلت له: "حر في ديسمبر؟ الجو لطيف الآن ويركض ركضا نحو البرودة، عن أي حر تتحدث؟"، قال متأففا: "لست أتحدث عن الحر الآن يا أبي، بل أنا أفكر في حر الصيف، فمن إبريل وحتى أوائل أكتوبر سوف نموت من الحر، وكل صيف حرارته أشد من حرارة الصيف الذي سبقه.. ووداعا للعب الكرة.. وشجرة الغاف ما زالت صغيرة.."كنا قد زرعنا شتلة غاف قبل ثلاثة أسابيع وما زال عمر يتخيل أنها ستنمو سريعا كحبة فاصولياء جاك، فرددت ردي المعتاد: "إنها تحتاج من خمس إلى سبع سنوات حتى توفر نوعا من الظل..

53 " Reading enhances logical thinking and motivates analyzing skills. It helps one's mind to be calmer and wiser. As the body seeks air, food, and water, the mind seeks knowledge, and it would be a huge waste if we didn't raise children from a very young age how to read passionately.Young readers are young thinkers, and a child who can think is a child who can face life problems with calmer manners and quieter approach.
