Lessons in Life Learned Feb 22, 2007 12:15 am Mood: content, 1115 Views I've learned that every minute you are angry is a minute of happiness you have lost. I've learned that when people accuse you of something, it's actually their own actions they accuse you of. I've learned that if God brings you to it, he will bring you through it. I've learned that if God gives you something to handle, he will give you the strength. You become what you think about, garbage in and garbage out. Plan your life as if you are going to live forever, but live your life as if you are going to die tomorrow. God didn't build a staircase to nowhere. You are what you think you are. If you think you are no good at something, you wont be. The way you treat others is a reflection of yourself. Loneliness can be temporary or chronic. The choice is yours. A cure for loneliness. Think of someone else. People who don't share, think they're winning a game where you end up with a lot. People who worry about others, worry less about themselves. Those who worry a lot about themselves, don't even think about others, let alone worry about them. It is better to be alone than to feel lonely when you are with someone. ' I've learned that if you are trying on clothes in a fitting room and the mirror is on the outside ...be sure the door is not locked, so you don't get locked out side in something embarrasing. Just a thought. I've learned that if I wear something one size bigger, I actually look slimmer. I've learned that even though hindsight might better than foresight, it's not necessarily a good idea to walk backwards. 6 Comments

Believe In Yourself Feb 21, 2007 12:32 am Mood: content, 1061 Views There may be days when you get up in the morning and things aren't the way you had hoped they would be. That's when you have to tell yourself that things will get better. There are times when people disappoint you and let you down, but those are the times when you must remind yourself to trust your own judgments and opinions, to keep your life focused on believing in yourself and all that you are capable of. There will be challenges to face and changes to make in your life, and it is up to you to accept them. Constantly keep yourself headed in the right direction for you. It may not be easy at times, but in those times of struggle you will find a stronger sense of who you are, So when the days come that are filled with frustration and unexpected responsibilities, remember to believe in yourself and all you want your life to be, because the challenges and changes will only help you to find the goals that you know are meant to come true for you. ~by Deanna Beisser~ 3 Comments

Living & Giving Feb 21, 2007 12:08 am Mood: loved, 870 Views Whatever you give away today, or think or say or do will multiply about tenfold and then return to you. It may not come immediately, nor from the obvious source but the law applies unfailingly, through some invisible force. Whatever you feel about another, be it love or hate or passion will surely bounce right back to you in some clear (or secret) fashion If you speak about some person, a word of praise or two, soon, tens of other people will speak kind words of you. Our thoughts are broadcasts of the soul, not secrets of the brain. Kind ones bring us happiness; petty ones, untold pain. Giving works as surely as reflections in a mirror. If hate you send, hate you'll get back, but loving brings love nearer. Remember, as you start this day and duty crowds your mind, that kindness comes so quickly back to those who first are kind. Let that thought and this one direct us through each day. The only things we ever keep are the things we give away. ~Author Unknown~ Spread the love 3 Comments

Just Some Unfortunate Habits Feb 17, 2007 7:48 pm Mood: thoughtful, 899 Views It seems that each of us has the same number of hours in every day and roughly equivalent claims on our attention. If the second requires more time than the first, you are in trouble. Under normal circumstances, it is not a problem for which you are allowed to impose the indulgence of others. RL * When waiting for a lift, stand aside and let others alighn when the lift door opens. RL That way there will be more room in the lift for everyone. Do not push your way through, even when you are in a hurry. Others might also be in a hurry. * In a shopping complex, restaurant, or other public place, hold the door open for the person that might be behind you. RL Have a quick check if anyone is behind you. * At the escalator, help the elderly, handicapped, or mothers with a pram or pushchair to easily and savely get onto the escalator. Some people are quite oblivious of their habits that irritate others. They burb and slurp; they spit and croak; they crack their knuckles; shake their legs; drum the table; stare at others. They eat disgustingly and sneeze worse, sometimes manage to combine the two. They give off evidence of poor personal hygiene. RL They scrape their throats, and then scrape their teeth. They pick their nose, and chew their nails. They dig their ears, and sniff their nose. They whisper into someones ear and shout at others. They scratch their crotch and check their hair. One thing these people never seem to do is to entertain self-doubts. Presumably they are too busy having a good time, going about their business in perfect ignorance and pleasure while disgusting everyone within range. RL Most of us are probably very innocent about those unfortunate habits and have to bear with it in the office proximity. Some of us are paired as the offender and the offendee, and are married to each other There is no all-purpose way of complaining about, much less altering, the annoying personal habits of others. We just have to be gracious enough to ignore them. However, if the person happens to be your best friend or spouse you may restrain them gently from doing whatever irritates you, i.e. "Dearest, I wish you wouldn't do that" The usual response is "Do what?" to which one replies, "I don't know ~ whatever it is that makes that strange sound" More distant relationships require more distant allusions. One can offer a solution without mentioning the problem ("Would you like a mint?") Or one can generally complain ~ "We are going to ban food at the desk. I just found a cockroach." Even if it only concerns one person who eats in the office or boutique, others may find it offensive. However, having said that. One is Not allowed to give instructions to strangers or criticise them. Good Habits are Learned at Home and are a Reflection of Ones Background. ' 3 Comments
