What
Enjoy simple pleasures. Push the envelope. Love what you do. Take nothing for granted.
Why
Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself, 'How did I get through all of that?'
