“It's a measure of treasure that gives me the pleasure
Of loving you the way I do
And you know I would gladly say I need your love badly
And bring these little things to you.
Cause you got gold
Gold inside of you
You got gold
Gold inside of you
Well I got some Gold inside me too”

“Don't run after anyone.
Be Yourself.
Do what you do best.
Be true to yourself.
Have good karma.
The right people will come your way eventually
and remain in your life.
Friendship on the onset is like a seed.
It is what you put into it that makes it
grow beautifully into a thriving
flower.”
