t’s important to always look where you’re headed rather than where you were!

“Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it,
or learn from it.” – Rafiki

Even Rafiki knows that every day is a lesson in itself. Enjoy the ride!

“Remember who you are.” – Mufasa

“Being brave doesn’t mean you go looking for trouble.” – Mufasa

What it does mean is that you’re mature enough to understand your fears and overcome them.

“Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that
balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.” – Mufasa
