Keep Moving Ahead !!

One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching

Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value

" Life can only be understood backwards but It must be lived forward. "

Things turn out best for those who make the best of the way things turn out

 

 

The road to success is lined with many tempting parking spaces.

Unless you try to do something beyond what you already mastered, you will never grow...!!

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

HAVE A COOL DAY AHEAD !!

Fresh Morning Rhyms !!

Everything in this world can be seen as you wish to

Good or Bad;

Simple or Complicated;

Easy or Difficult,

It's not how things are;

its about how you look up to them

and how you look up to them is all up to you.

If you want something badly, let it go.

If it comes back to you,

then its going to be yours forever.

If it doesn't then it's never going to be yours...

"Knowing others is intelligence;

knowing yourself is true wisdom.

Mastering others is strength;

mastering yourself is true power.

Have a Blessed Day !!!

Beautiful Morning Short Incidents !!

Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose Winners of the contest to find the most caring children were :.

(1)

 

A four-year-old child, whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman, who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's' yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy just said, 'Nothing, I just helped him cry.'

************************************************************

(2)

Teacher Debbie Moon's first graders were discussing a picture of a family. One little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the other members. One of her students suggested that he was adopted.

A little girl said, 'I know all about adoption, I was adopted.'

'What does it mean to be adopted,?' asked another child.

'It means', said the girl, 'that you grew in your mommy's heart instead of her tummy!'

************************************************************

Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think about little Jamie Scott.

Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play. His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen.

On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school.

Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement.

'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that will remain a lesson to me.

'I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'

Exclusive Morning Poem !!

Fold two hands together

And express a dash of sorrow

Marinate it overnight

And work on it tomorrow.

Chop one grudge in tiny pieces

Add several cups of love

Dredge with a large sized smile

Mix with the ingredients above.

Dissolve the hate within you,

By doing a good deed

Cut in and help your friend

If he should be in need.

Stir in laughter, love and kindness

From the heart it has to come,

Toss with genuine forgiveness

And give your neighbor some.

The amount of people served

Will depend on you,

It can serve the whole wide world,

If you really want it to.

At times one loses everything,

it only means that things shall recommence shortly with more life,

more love, more devotion, more intensity, with more hope . . .

Hope of a new tomorrow to fill the pits created by yesterday.

Make everyday your Best Day !

Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

The road to success.... is always under construction.

When everything comes in your way you're in the wrong lane.

The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge..

One thing you can't recycle is wasted time.

Your mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

One thing you can give and still keep....is your word.

 

 

 

 

ENJOY THIS BEAUTIFUL DAY !!!

 

A Lesson of Love !

There was once a lonely girl who longed desperately for love. One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving song birds. She took them home and put them in a small glided cage. She nurtured them with love and the birds grew strong. Every morning they greeted her with a marvelous song. The girl felt great love for the birds. She wanted their singing to last forever.

One day the girl left the door to the cage open. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage. The girl watched anxiously as he circled high above her. She was so frightened that he would fly away and she would never see him again that as he flew close, she grasped at him wildly. She caught him in her fist. She clutched him tightly within her hand. Her heart gladdened at her success in capturing him. Suddenly she felt the bird go limp. She opened her hand stared in horror at the dead bird. Her desperate clutching love had killed him.

She noticed the other bird teetering on the edge of the cage. She could feel his great need for freedom. His need to soar into the clear, blue sky. She lifted him from the cage and tossed him softly into the air. The bird circled once, twice, three times.

The girl watched delighted at the bird's enjoyment. Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. She wanted the bird to be happy. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest melody, she had ever heard.

"The fastest way to lose love is to hold on too tight, the best way to keep love is to give it -- WINGS!"

He Showed Me Some Unhappy People

When I Asked God for Wealth

Cute Morning Words !!

Warm hello doesn’t come from the lips,

It comes from the heart,

Doesn’t have to be told,

It has to be shown,

Doesn’t have to be given,

It has to be sent.

Take time to greet the dawn,

Watch the light appear up high,

As an orange sun starts rising

In the Eastern sky.

The birds are chirping merrily

As a brand new day begins,

So enjoy this lovely morning

And the beauty that it brings.

Through each day our goal is to touch one'e heart;

Encourage one's mind and inspire one's soul

May you continually be blessed,

And be a blessing to other

 

Good Morning...…

 

A Lovely Story - Perfect Peace !!

There once was a king who offered a prize to the artist who would paint the best picture of peace. Many artists tried.

The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two he really liked, and he had to choose between them.

One picture was of a calm lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful towering mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. All who saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace.

The other picture had mountains, too. But these were rugged and bare. Above was an angry sky, from which rain fell and in which lightning played. Down the side of the mountain tumbled a foaming waterfall. This did not look peaceful at all.

But when the king looked closely, he saw behind the waterfall a tiny bush growing in a crack in the rock. In the bush a mother bird had built her nest. There, in the midst of the rush of angry water, sat the mother bird on her nest-in perfect peace.

Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the second picture. Do you know why?

"Because," explained the king, "peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart.

HAVE A HAPPY WEEKEND !!!

Make the Best Use of Every Moment !

If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.





The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime !
It is never too late to become what you might have been.
Just about the time when you think you can make ends meet,
somebody moves the ends.





Whoever said nothing is impossible,
never tried slamming a revolving door....




Almost everything in life is easier to get into than to get out of.




Resistance drains energy , Acceptance saves it Cheerfulness sustains it !




The trouble with life is that it's a do-it-yourself kit without instructions.




"Teamwork is essential -- it allows you to blame someone else."




 Never let the fear of failing keep you off frm playing the game


WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY !!!

Sometimes someone says something really small,
and it just fits right into this empty place in your heart.

on whom I have no claim.

HAVE A BLESSED DAY !!

Beautiful Today !!

I may never see tomorrow;

there's no written guarantee,

And things that happened yesterday belong to history,

I cannot predict the future,

I cannot change the past,

I have just the present moment,

I must treat it as my last,

I must use this moment wisely for it soon will pass away,

and be lost to me forever as part of yesterday,

I must exercise compassion,

help the fallen to their feet,

Be a friend unto the friendless,

make an empty life complete,

The unkind things I do today may never be undone,

And friendships that I fail to win may nevermore be won,

I may not have another chance on bended knee to pray,

And thank God with humble heart for giving me this day.

LIVE YOUR DAY !!!

Maybe .... Series 1/4

Maybe . . .
We were supposed to meet the wrong people
before meeting the right one,
So that when we finally meet the right person,
we will know how to be grateful for that gift.






Maybe . . .
When the door of happiness closes, another opens; but,
often times, we look so long at the closed door that
we don't even see the new one which has been opened for us.






Maybe . . .
It is true that we don't know what we have until we lose it,
but it is also true that we don't know what
we have been missing until it arrives.






Maybe . . .
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.




ENJOY THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK !!
