A note to my daughters

A note to my daughters, 
Jana, Farida and Qesmat, 
I know you still too young to understand what I wrote to you here under, but I'm writing it anyways.. Hopefully, one day you'll realize what I meant when you look back in time or when in need to know the difference between right and wrong and I'm no longer there to tell you.
Never judge by appearances, one day you will look gorgeously beautiful, but there's always a bad hair day.. Do whatever it takes to gain your rights, don't hold grudges for anyone, keep in mind that telling the truth is always the shortest route to your goals, and one lie will vanish trust with no return.. Think twice before you say a word or take an action when you're angry, cause words and actions remain a lifetime!
Allow no one to treat you inferiorly, treat no one superiorly as well, remember that we are all equal in front of Allah and only good deeds matter.. Sometimes you have to let go in order to hold tight to your peace of mind, and to keep in charge of your own life.. Never be seduced by the fake smile, and never lose hope in finding the perfect one.. Live the moment as if it's the last cause nobody knows what will comes next.. Create your own happiness out of nothing and put your sadness in a box and throw it in the deepest ocean,and DON'T let the past hold you back, only then you will find out all the good stuff that you missed.. Never ask for forgiveness for a mistake you don't know anything about, a mistake they only making it up, never say sorry for a mistake you never did, apologize only for the ones you did, and forgive others if apologized.. Learn from your experiences and use it as references for your future.. When in need for a true friend and you didn't find one, hold your pen and write down everything in your mind and be sure it will keep all your secrets as much as I do. till now, no one heard of a talking pen :) 
Search for your inner peace, leave everything for Allah to manage, for as long as you don't hurt others, Allah won't allow your heart to be hurt.. Every heartbreak will fade out one day and surely will be followed by happiness, nothing lasts forever, for every cloud has a silver lining and as Allah promised: with every difficulty there is relief.. Cherish every moment in your life and be patient, for Allah have a reason for everything. Love unconditionally to be loved the same way, treat others the way you want to be treated with, not the way they deserve. And always remember: as you sow, so will you reap, so be careful of what you seed!
I want you to know that every yell at you was out of care, every shout was out of love and every advice I gave to you was out of fear that something or someone may hurt you.
I did my best to keep your smile on your face and I gave my all to make you happy, so don't just cry over nothing unless it really worth your tears. 
Your Loving Mother,
Youssra.
