Points to ponder

Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.

Sometimes we simply need someone who will be there for us.
Someone who will sit there and listen.
Someone who is genuinely concerned.
Be that person for others when you can.

We always work for a better tomorrow
but when tomorrow comes
instead of enjoying
we again think of a better tomorrow
Let's have a better today.

The power of the people is stronger than the poeple in power. - Wael Ghonim

Two things to remember in life:
Take care of your thoughts when you are alone;
Take care of your words when you are with people.
