I had an inheritance from my father, It was the moon and the sun. And though I roam all over the world, The spending of it’s never done.

About This Quote

The world is a big place and moving from place to place may not make it your home. However, there are many things that will stay the same no matter where you go. Before you leave home, make sure to take those things with you. You may be gone for a while and you will not be able to carry everything with you, but you can always return and pick up those little things that reflect who you are and what makes your life special.
