Thought for the Day
There's no 'right time' in life. There's just time and you get to choose what to do with it.
ജീവിതത്തിൽ 'ശരിയായ സമയ'മില്ല. സമയമേയുള്ളൂ, അത് എന്തുചെയ്യണമെന്ന് നിങ്ങൾക്ക് തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കാം.
जीवन में कोई 'सही समय' नहीं होता। समय ही होता है और आपको यह चुनना होता है कि आपको इसके साथ क्या करना है।
