Don't Let The Hope Die

What is life without salt and pepper? Of testing times and sorrows? I guess tasteless would be the word. In fact, they not only add taste to our lives, but also introduce us to new and unexplored sides of ourselves.

Looking at the bigger picture, salt and pepper situations give us an opportunity to step out of our comfort zones so that we grow, learn, fight and survive.

Life is like any other challenge. Once in, you only focus on winning and surviving, followed by happy moments when you propose a toast to victory and then get ready for another challenge.

The happy moments just mark the celebration of your survival and victory, hence are short lived. So, don't complain about lack of them in your life, for, it's the challenge that you need to focus on and not the celebration.

However tough the going may become, you need to keep going. Don't ever give up. Have faith in God, yourself and your abilities.

Words

Make them loving, make them calm,
Never let them do any harm,
They make a difference to ones near and far,
Let your words be kind never to make a scar.

They decide your life's journey,
They get you friends so many,
Speak your words thoughtfully,
Let them make your world a melody.

Use your words to comfort the one,
Who has lost his track in the long run,
Let your words bring a smile,
Throughout life across miles.

When life's journey comes to a halt,
Let your words remain without a fault,
Let your words give an everlasting memory,
Let them carry a hope for many!!

Value Everything

 

Value your health. Take good care of yourself because many people pray just to be healthy like you. Health is wealth.

Value your life, don't lose it. Don't even think of suicide because many people wished they had enough time to accomplish their dreams. You still have a chance to do that so why give up?

Value your freedom because so many people are willing to spend all they have to buy their freedom. If you doubt this, go to the prisons.

Value your parents irrespective of their status, whether rich or poor. If you think I'm wrong then go to orphanages and see how the kids wish they had someone they could call mother or father, no matter how bad they are.

Value your friends because they are not easy to come by. Be a good friend too. Be left alone on an island for a year and see if you will not contemplate suicide.

Value the food you eat, no matter how cheap because so many people have enough money to buy it but can't eat it because of their health.

Value your job because so many jobless people out there envy your job and wish to have it.

Value what you have because you might not have a chance to get it again. They say a bird in hand is worth 10,000 in the bush.

Value the little things you are given because they have the tendency to attract bigger ones.

Value yourself, value people and value the things around you, no matter how little. That's the best way to live and enjoy life.

God Is Always With You

When you are down and out
Lost, and filled with despair
Know that God's love surrounds you
You're safe in His special care

When people taunt and abuse you
And leave you feeling low
Look to your Creator and Saviour
Let His Love surround you in its Glow

When you need to ask for forgiveness
And are hurting deep inside
Approach Him with an open heart
And let Him touch your life

When your situation seems hopeless
All you need is a friend and guide
Look to Him and seek His help
Hand held, he'll walk by your side

Just welcome Him into your heart
Make Him the center of everything
You will find an amazing transformation
As His love envelopes your being

Life Is Too Short!

Life is too short to wake up with regrets,

so love the people who treat you right.

Forget about the one's who don't.

Believe everything happens for a reason.

If you get a second chance,

grab it with both hands.

If it changes your life, let it.

Nobody said life would be easy,

they just promised

it would be worth it !

A Smile

A smile costs nothing, but gives much
It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever.
None are so rich that can get along without it
And none are so poor but that can be made rich by it.

It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give
It creates sunshine in the home,
Fosters good will in business,
And is the best antidote for trouble
And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value
Unless it is given away.

Some people are too busy to give you a smile
Give them one of yours
For the good Lord knows that no one needs a smile so badly
As he or she who has no more smiles left to give.

Keep Going

Never regret a day in your life.
Good days give you happiness
Bad days give you experiences;
Both are essential to life.

Keep going...

Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you humble,
Success keeps You Glowing,
But Only God keeps You Going!

What Can You Do?

In this world in which we live,

It is very sad, but true.

There is someone that is much worse off,

Than me, or even you.

We must reach out our hand to them,

Extend it and try to share.

And do it with the utmost humility,

And genuinely show we care.

Because people need our help,

But sometimes they won't ask.

Because their pride will always set in,

And not allow them such a task.

So if you see someone struggling,

Please stop and say hello.

And ask if they need your help,

And their smile will start to grow.

So please show give a smile

To strangers all around,

And you can do this all with kindness,

And all, without making a sound.

The Tear

Just when I found it unbearable to fight

The flow of the salty water made me feel light

Washed away all my frustration

Wiped out the feeling of humiliation

Erased one by one, all the confusion

Prepared to embrace devil and angel with arms open



The priceless emotion, rolling down

From the most sensible organ

It is called the tear

For me it is very near and dear

Which helps blow the heavier feelings into thin air



It is the new dawn today

Forgotten are the developments of the night yesterday

I am a bit excited at this point in time

Today I have a new task, a new level to climb

A new hope emerged beneath the core of my heart

It is the new beginning, yes! I am ready to restart

You Are Stronger Than You Know

Who says you cannot,
Tell him he is wrong.
Bigger are you, than opinions,
Much larger than you think.
What is needed but time,
Till then in patience wait.
For want of success,
You dare.
For want of glory,
Striving, you must be,
With a heart that is set,
Mind that is fixed,
Arms that are ready.

Then shall you see,
The rising of you, the inside 'you'.
High above the shadows,
Beyond views and opinions.
Everyone will then know,
When the phoenix rises,
Nothing stands in the way.
When the storms subside,
Opportunities come to play.
This is a law of life unsaid,
Are you willing to embrace?

Time is coming when,
You will rise and your problems, subdue.
Then will the sun shine, radiantly,
On your way to success and grandeur.
Imperative it is to move on - now,
For stagnation is the greatest disease.
Dynamic is the world you live in,
Thus, keep up the pace.

Leave your worries to the worrier,
For there are many - truly many.
Invest your 'you' in to edification,
For you are called to prove
That you are bigger than opinions.
You are commissioned to show,
That you are larger than your shadow.
Keep up the pace
And you shall prove so!

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Hearts Prints

Whatever our hands touch...we leave

fingerprints on.

On walls, on furniture, on door knobs,

dishes and books.

As we touch we leave our identity..

Oh please where ever I go today...

help me leave heart prints.

Heart prints of compassion,

understanding and love.

Heart prints of kindness and genuine concern.

May my heart touch a lonely neighbor...

or a runaway daughter...

or an anxious mother...

or perhaps a dear friend!

I shall go out today...

to leave heart prints...

and if some one should say...

"I felt your touch!" 

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will, 

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, 

When funds are low and the debts are high, 

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh. 

When care is pressing you down a bit. 

Rest, if you must, but don't you quit. 

Life is queer with its twists and turns

As every one of us sometimes learns. 

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won had he stuck it out: 

Don't give up though the pace seems slow -

You may succeed with another blow. 

Success is failure turned inside out -

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. 

And you never can tell how close you are. 

It may be near when it seems so far: 

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Anything Is Possible

Believe in Yourself,
and Remember that
Anything Is Possible

Believe in what makes you feel good.
Believe in what makes you happy.
Believe in the dreams you've always wanted to come true,
and give them every chance to.

Life holds no promises
as to what will come your way.
You must search for your own ideals
and work towards reaching them.

Life makes no guarantees as to what you'll have.
It just gives you time to make choices
and to take chances
and to discover whatever secrets might come your way. 

If you are willing to take the opportunities you are given
and utilize the abilities you have,
you will constantly fill your life
with special moments and unforgettable times.

No one knows the mysteries of life or its ultimate meaning,
but for those who are willing
to believe in their dreams and in themselves,
life is a precious gift in which anything is possible.

Dare To Dream

Let nothing hold you back from
exploring your wildest fantasies,
wishes, and aspirations.
Don't be afraid to dream big
and to follow your dreams
wherever they may lead you.
Open your eyes to their beauty;
open your mind to their magic;
open your heart to their possibilities.

Dare to dream.
Whether they are in color
or in black and white,
whether they are big or small,
easily attainable or almost impossible,
look to your dreams,
and make them become reality.
Wishes and hopes are nothing
until you take the first step
towards making them something!

Dare to dream,
Because only by dreaming,
will you ever discover
who you are, what you want,
and what you can do.
Don't be afraid to take risks,
to become involved,
to make commitment.
Do whatever it takes to make
your dreams come true.
Always believe in miracles,
and always believe in you!

Words To Live By

It's not how much you accomplish in life
that really counts,
but how much you give to other.

 It's not how high you build your dreams
that makes a difference,
but how high your faith can climb.

It's not how many goals you reach,
but how many lives you touch.


 It's not who you know that matters,
but who you are inside.


 Believe in the impossible,
hold tight to the incredible,
and live each day to its fullest potential.
You can make a difference
in your world.

How Do You Think?

If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't!
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't.


If you think you'll lose, you're lost; 
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in the state of mind!  


If you think you're outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise.
You've got to be sure of yourself
Before you 'll ever win the prize. 


Life's battles don't always go 
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the person who thinks he can!



  

It Takes Courage

It takes strength to be firm,
It takes courage to be gentle.

It takes strength to conquer,
It takes courage to surrender.

It takes strength to be certain,
It takes courage to have doubt.

It takes strength to fit in,
It takes courage to stand out.

It takes strength to feel a friend's pain,
It takes courage to feel your own pain.

It takes strength to endure abuse,
It takes courage to stop it.

It takes strength to stand alone,
It takes courage to lean on another.

It takes strength to love,
It takes courage to be loved.

It takes strength to survive,
It takes courage to live.

You Are Unique

You may not think that the world needs you, but it does. For you are unique, like no one that has ever been before or will come after.

No one can speak with your voice, say your piece, smile your smile, or shine your light. No one can take your place, for it is yours alone to fill.

If you are not there to shine your light, who knows how many travelers will lose their way as they try to pass by your empty place in the darkness?

Never Lose Hope

Into each life a rain must fall
There's joy and pain you can recall
Life's full of challenge ; big & small
But you can overcome them all

Put everything in perspective
See thing clearly, be positive
Life's wonderful, plenty to give
More goals and dreams you can achieve

Leave the past, to the future move on
No regrets, just wisdom and vision
Everything happens for a reason
It's your new dawn, change your direction

Look at life on a brighter scope 
No burden's too great,you can't cope

In time; wounds will heal, do not mope
You'll rise and shine, never lose hope!

Happiness

Everybody, everywhere
seeks happiness, it's true,
But finding it and keeping it
seem difficult to do.

Difficult because we think
that happiness is found
Only in the places where
wealth and fame abound.

And so we go on searching
in palaces of pleasure
Seeking recognition
and monetary treasure,

Unaware that happiness
is just a state of mind
Within the reach of everyone
who takes time to be kind.

For in making others happy
we will be happy, too.
For the happiness you give away
returns to shine on you.

Live Each Moment

I may never see tomorrow, there is 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 will soon 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 never more be won
I may not have another chance on bended knee to pray
And thank God with humble heart, for giving me this day

Sand & Stone

Two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey, they had an argument and one friend slapped the other one in the face.

The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:

'Today my best friend slapped me in the face.'

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.

After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone:

'Today my best friend saved my life.'

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, 'After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?'

The friend replied, 'When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand, where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it.'

Learn to write your hurts in the sand and to carve your benefits in stone.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

Do not value the things you have in your life, but value who you have in your life!

Gift of Live

I value the life God has given to me
It is my life and I can live it as I please
My life may not mean much to someone else
And how I live it is up to God and myself

Only God knows how many years I have remaining
But I intend to live them all without complaining
I will treasure each day and rejoice in its pleasures
Practicing His righteousness as a means of measure

I will do my daily chores with a song in my heart
Singing God's praises until the day I depart
And while I am living out my disappearing years
I will be grateful to Him for putting me here

How To Manage Anger

The stress of balancing all the elements of everyday life can sometimes get a bit much and trigger anger. Here are a few tips to help you deal with anger.

Understand your anger
There are two types of anger. External anger is more common in men. Internal anger is usually found in women and linked to frustration, disappointment and depression. Try to understand your thoughts when you feel angry.

Learn your trigger points
Be honest with yourself. Are you permanently tired and angry? Tiredness leads to irritability making us more likely to snap. It also causes depression and low moods, which can be linked to anger. If you have prolonged insomnia seek medical help. Come clean about issues or qualities in people that drive you crazy and try to recognise a pattern behind your anger.

Communicate
A lot of anger comes from bottling up emotions until they overflow and spiral out of control. Be up-front with your own feelings and become more assertive. Calmly and politely tell people what upsets you before the situation escalates. Explain what makes you angry and why. Whether it's the dishwasher not being emptied, your partner not disciplining the kids, or the kids leaving their rooms a mess. Be specific. Remember people aren't mind readers.

Relax
We're so busy trying to fit everything into life it's not surprising we lose the plot. Reduce stress and anger by exercising three times a week. Working up a sweat prevents anger and is a great outlet for pent-up emotions. Pay attention to your diet, too. A healthy diet helps your body keep everything in balance. Try meditation or yoga, or just deep breathing to get yourself to a calmer space.

Be Yourself

Why would you want to be someone else
When you could be better by being yourself
Why pretend to be someone you are not
When you have something they haven't got

Cheating yourself of the life you have to live
Deprives others of that only which you can give
You have much more to offer by being just you
Than walking around in someone else's shoes

Trying to live the life of another is a mistake
It is a masquerade; nothing more than a fake
Be yourself and let your qualities show through
Others will love you more for being just you 

Remember that God loves you just as you are
To Him you are already a bright shining star
Family and friends will love you more too
If you spent time practicing just being you

It's Up To You

One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest.
One bird can herald spring.

One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal.

One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.

One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.

One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what's true.
One life can make the difference,
You see, it's up to you!

Positive Vs Negative Thinking

Negative thinking will give you nothing. There is no benefit you can attain by having this negative thinking. Often we always and many times fill our mind with something negative that can endanger us. If you always put effort on negative thinking, the negative things will come to you because you focus on them. It will make you worry and feel more negative feeling. The more you think in negative way, the more negative you will be.

One of many ways to remove your negative thinking and increase your positive thinking is by changing the negative into positive thinking. Every time when you think and feel in negative way, you can change it into positive one.

Negative : everything is getting worse.
Positive : everything will be OK.

Negative : my friend breaks his promise to come to my house. He is late.
Positive : perhaps he is late because he is trapped in heavy traffic jam. He will come.

Negative : I cannot do that.
Positive : I can do that. It is easy for me.

Remember that positive thinking produces positive results and negative thinking produces negative results.
