Happiness will find you

Happiness is like a butterfly...

The more you chase it, the more it will elude you...
But if you turn your attention to other things...
It comes and softly sits on your shoulder...

Don't seek happiness...Happiness will find you!!!

Dedicate time

Dedicate time to work;
it's the price of success.

Dedicate time to think;
it's the fountain of power.

Dedicate time to enjoy;
it's the secret of youth.

Dedicate time to love and be loved;
it's the source of joy and satisfaction.

Dedicate time to laugh;
it mitigates the stress.

Perspective on life

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.

On their return from the trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"

"It was great, Dad."

"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.

The son answered, "I saw that we have one dog and they had four.

We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.

We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.

Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.

We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.

We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.

We buy our food, but they grow theirs.

We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them."

The boy's father was speechless.

Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."



Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.

Appreciate every single thing you have, especially your friends!

We can!

Life is filled with possibilities

That challenges us each day to take a chance

Try something new

See things in a different way

And as it's through,

We learn to change and grow

To explore who we are and what we know

For it's not until we try

That we find out 'WHAT WE CAN DO'

So don't wait until tomorrow

To discover something new!

Wake up!

"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart.

Who looks outside, dreams.

Who looks inside, awakens."



"Time can make us forget some memories,

but there would be some memories which make us forget the time...

...and those make the life worthwhile"



"Don't go the way life takes you,

but take the life the way you go.

Remember you are born to live...

and not living because you are born."



"Everyone needs someone with whom to share their secrets."

"Listening is just as important as talking."

"Good times are even better when they are shared."

'The only way to have a friend is to be one."

"Sometimes you just need a shoulder to cry on."

Carry these =)

Carry a Heart that Never Hates,

Carry a Smile that Never Fades,

Carry a Touch that Never Hurts,

Carry a Friendship that Never Fails.

Time..

Time is too slow for those who wait,

Too swift for those who fear,

Too long for those who grieve,

Too short for those who rejoice,

But for those who love,

Time is eternity.

What I've learnt

I've learnt that if someone says something unkind about me,
I must live so that no one will believe it.

I've learnt that you can make someone's day
by simply sending them a little note.

I've learnt that the greater a person's sense of guilt,
the greater his or her needs to cast blame on others.

I've learnt that no matter what happens,
or how bad it seems today, life does go on,
and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learnt that motel mattresses are better
on the side away from the phone.

I've learnt that you can tell a lot about a man
by the way he handles these three things,
a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learnt that regardless of your relationship with your parents,
you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.

I've learnt that making a 'living'
is not the same thing as making a 'life'.

I've learnt that life sometimes gives you a second chance.

I've learnt that you should't go through life
with a catcher's mitt on both hands.
You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learnt that if you pursue happiness,
it will elude you.
But if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your work, meeting new people,
and doing the very best you can,
happiness will find you.

I've learnt that whenever I decide something with kindness,
I usually make the right decision.

I've learnt that even when I have pains,
I don't have to be one.

I've learnt that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love human touches - holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learn that I still have a lot to learn.

l-o-v-e

"I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me;
love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person;
love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of;
love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you."

"The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along."

"Love is what makes two people sit in the middle of a bench when there is plenty of room at both ends."

"The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life."

"There is no feeling more comforting and consoling than knowing you are next to the one you love."

"If I could be anything in the world I would want to be a teardrop because I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips."

"For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

"How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being."

"Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are."

"When I say 'I love you', it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman."

"You can't stop loving or wanting to love because when it's right, it's the best thing in the world. When you're in a relationship and it's good, even if nothing else in your life is right, you feel like your whole world is complete."

"Here is the deepest secret nobody knows.
Here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
And the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
Which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide.
And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.
I carry your heart.
I carry it in my heart."

Smile =)

A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.

Life is short but a smile takes barely a second.

Every tear has a smile behind it.

A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.

A good neighbour is a fellow who smiles at you over the back fence, but doesn't climb over it.

If you see a friend without a smile, give him one of yours.

A smile starts on the lips, a grin spreads to the eyes, a chuckle comes from the belly, but a good laugh bursts forth from the soul, overflows, and bubbles all around.

Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.

Too often we underestimate the power of a smile, which have to potential to turn a life around.

Smiles are the language of love.

The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.

A smile is an inexpensive way to change your looks.

All people smile in the same language.

Children smile on the average 400 times/day, adults: 15 times/day. Ever wonder why?

A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.

If I thought that a smile of mine, might linger the whole day through and ligten some heart with a heavier part, I'd not withhold it - would you?

Smile because God gave humans this beautiful gift - a smile...

11 rules for health life + love

  1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.
  2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.
  3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling it was the best conversation you've ever had.
  4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
  5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
  6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
  7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you only have one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
  8. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.
  9. A careless word may kindle strife, a cruel word may wreck a life, a timely word may level stress, a loving word may heal and bless.
  10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
  11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Destiny of Life

Long ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he liked, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he had covered.

Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.

Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, 'Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself.'

The above journey is similar to the journey of our life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and cognition. We neglect our health, time with our family and time to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.

One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed. Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition.

Life is definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of work and play, family and personal time.

You have to decide how you want to balance your life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim of human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile, life is short. Do not take life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy life!

Watch your thoughts - they become words.
Watch your words - they become actions.
Watch your actions - they become habits.
Watch your habits - they become character.
Watch your character - it becomes your destiny.

Some thoughts that change LIFE

Anger is a condition in which the tongue works faster than the mind.

You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying over the future!

Love...and you shall be loved.

God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with Him.

All people smile in the same language.

Everyone needs to be loved...especially when they do not deserve it.

The real measure of a man's wealth is what he has invested in eternity.

Laughter is God's sunshine.

Everyone has beauty but not everyone sees it.

It's important for parents to live the same things they teach.

Thank God for what you have, trust God for what you need.

If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for.

Man looks at outward appearance but God looks within.

The choice you make today will usually affect tomorrow.

Take time to laugh, for it is the music of the soul.

Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears.

Love is strengthened by working through conflicts together.

Harsh words break no bones but they do break hearts.

To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it.

We take for granted the things that we should be giving thanks for.

Love is the only thing that can be divided without being diminished.

Happiness is enhanced by others but does not depend upon others.

For every minute you are angry with someone, you lose 60 seconds of happiness that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can, with what you have, and where you are.

Sometimes the road of life may seem a bit bumpy; but it's just a small part of the great journey you're on!

Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.

If you don't like something, change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.

People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.

Sometimes the littlest things in life can make your whole world change.

Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times.

The most beautiful things in the world must be seen from the heart.

Believe in Love, Life, and Yourself.

Cast the gift of a lovely thought into the heart of a friend.

May you hear God's voice in your heart, know His touch in your life, and feel His love each day.
