Am I living what I believe each and every day? The true measure of any person is living his/her truth. Make sure your measurement is so tall that people have to look up to know who you are.
The acknowledgement of our shortcomings renders the truth of our need.
Love is the passion of Life that marks the journey to our true destination.
Birthday, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, why must there be a special day to show we care or Love someone? Wouldn’t life be more joyful for everyone if we made every day a celebration of life?
When we allow the worries of tomorrow to permeate our minds, we give them the power to obfuscate the joy of today.
Seek happiness and joy in those things that most take for granted. If we spend our time waiting for great miracles to occur in our lives, we miss the small, everyday wonders of life.
If we are afraid to know the heartbreaks of Love, we will never know the full capacity of Love's Joy. It is in experiencing Love's sunrise and sunset of life that we learn to appreciate its fullest ascendancy.
True success is not measured by one’s quantity of time upon this earth, but by the quantity of Joy experienced.
When we learn not to judge others, we are beyond their insults. When we feel insulted we have judged another’s insult of us and acknowledged it.
The happiness of life is made up of small exchanges, a hug, a favor, a smile, a handshake, a kindness, or a heart-felt compliment. Never underestimate their power to lift another’s spirit or change a life.
One simple kindness toward another person can be the seed that paves the way for them to set their life's course on a path that creates more positive changes in the world than we could ever hope to make in many lifetimes.
A kindness given is a kindness received...who knows where the ripples stop.
When it is all said and done, in the final analysis, a person is only remembered by the impact he/she has had on another person’s life.
If one never speaks a lie, he will never have to worry about the arrival of the truth.
The necklace of life is strung with the pearls of everyday memories; treasure them.
Experience is simply another name for the accumulation of all the mistakes we have made in our lifetime. Lesson after lesson we seek our obtainable level of wisdom and move forward.
Happiness is the result of our perception. If we focus on lack we will never find contentment. If we focus on what we have in joyful appreciation, suddenly the world becomes our footstool.
Life is indeed the greatest teacher of all, and our pride the greatest hurdle.
Stop yourself the moment you begin to think there is a problem on the horizon. That thought immediately becomes the problem since our thoughts create our reality.
As the creator of the Universe, God uses the love of all to paint the tapestry of our world as He would have it .... our loving Hearts are his humble servants.
Silence is the wellspring of the soul.
