Leading You To Light

The road will be dark; and you might not know the way,
Yet, with the goal in sight; be certain you won't stray.
It will give you all the strength; and will take you through.

Keep your eyes upon the goal, keep it always in your sight.
It will help you don the crooked road, and lead you to the light.

Focus On Self !!!

Some of us waste our time waiting for people to live to our expectations.

We are so concerned about what others are doing that we don’t do anything ourselves.

Its not so important what others are upto; compared to what you are doing.

Focus on what you do, your work; Not on others.

Love is like Magic

Love is like magic
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!

Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!

Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace

Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with it's heart
And not with it's mind!

Love is the answer
That everyone seeks....
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.

Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!

Train Of Life

Some folks ride the train of life
Looking out the rear,
Watching miles of life roll by,
And marking every year.

They sit in sad remembrance,
Of wasted days gone by,
And curse their life for what it was,
And hang their head and cry.

But I don’t concern myself with that,
I took a different vent,
I look forward to what life holds,
And not what has been spent.

So strap me to the engine,
As securely as I can be,
I want to be out on the front,
To see what I can see.

I want to feel the winds of change,
Blowing in my face,
I want to see what life unfolds,
As I move from place to place.

I want to see what’s coming up,
Not looking at the past,
Life’s too short for yesterdays,
It moves along too fast.

So if the ride gets bumpy,
While you are looking back,
Go up front, and you may find,
Your life has jumped the track.

It’s all right to remember,
That’s part of history,
But up front’s where it’s happening,
There’s so much mystery.

The enjoyment of living,
Is not where we have been,
It’s looking ever forward,
To another year and ten.

It’s searching all the byways,
Never should you refrain,
For if you want to live your life,
You gotta drive the train.

Dreams

Dreams are a big part of our Lives
and You must do whatever it takes
to make them a Reality;
by the plans you make,
the course you take,
and the things you do.

Don't dwell on past mistakes.
Leave yesterday behind,
along with all it's problems,
worries and doubts.

Realize you can't change the past,
but you can start a new tomorrow.
Don't try to do everything at once;
take one step at a time,

Don't ever be afraid to try the Impossible
no matter what others may think.
Remember you are Unique
in your own special way.

Don't ever stop Dreaming!
Don't ever stop wanting what's right for you!

To dream anything that you want to dream,
that is the beauty of the human mind.

To do anything that you want to do,
that is the strength of the human will.

To trust yourself, to test your limits,
that is the courage to succeed."

Heart Touching Quotes

God picked up a flower, dipped it in dew
lovingly touched it, which turned into you
he gifted it to me & said this friend is for you.
==========================================

I have realized that
Words had hurt me more than
The wounds I had suffered in life
==========================================

I have realized that
Tears convey more than
What words can ever say
==========================================

No person deserves your tears,
and who deserves them
won't make you cry.
==========================================

Your Smile and laugh just warms my heart
I felt this feeling from the start

This warmth I want to feel again
and I will make you happy anyway I can

So I hope this note I am sending your way
will make you smile and have a happy day.

Positive Thoughts

WHAT YOU DID

The world will provide you with stones everyday.

What you build out of it, is your choice...
Wall, Road or a Bridge...
You may even choose to do nothing.

At the end, world will know you by what you did with it.


SEASONS OF LIFE

Life at any time can become difficult.
Life at any time can become easy.

Good or Bad, they are seasons of life.
It all depends upon, how you take on life and adjust to these seasons.


LEADING YOU TO LIGHT

The road will be dark; and you might not know the way,
Yet, with the goal in sight; be certain you won't stray.
It will give you all the strength; and will take you through.

Keep your eyes upon the goal, keep it always in your sight.
It will help you don the crooked road, and lead you to the light.


YOU HAVE EVERYTHING

If you look at what you do not have in life;
You don't have anything.

If you look at what you have in life;
You have everything.


DEVOTE YOURSELF

So many people walk around with a meaningless life.
They seem half-sleep, even when they're busy
doing things they think are important.
This is because they're chasing the wrong things.

The way you get meaning into your life
is to devote yourself to loving others,
devote yourself to your community around you,
and devote yourself to creating something
that gives you purpose and meaning.

Take the High Road

Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9

The guide book said it was an easy hike around the lake, where the flat path hugged the water's edge. It was going to take longer this day, because I had to stop every few feet, it seemed, for another breathtaking view in the late afternoon light.

Rounding a bend, the path began to lean upward. Within minutes the fork in the road became visible.

The low road? The known path, The easy one. The high road? The unknown path. The intrigue and mystery of what's out there.

I found myself whistling an old ballad, "Oh! ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, and I'll be in Scotland afore ye". Decisions, decisions, hmmmm……..

I thought about forks in the road, spiritually-speaking. The Bible advises us to set our thoughts on things above, not below. I believe we need to set our goals high, rather than low; be challenged.

Actually, we always have a choice. My way, God's way. Seek the face of God, who gives us strength for the journey. Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. (1 Chron 16:11)

The high road, God's way, always the better path. That is good news.

Dream

A dream is a seed
The seed of a tree
A tree full of life
And the things you can be
Your dreams are the windows
Through which you can see
A hint of your future
And the things you will be
Each night when you sleep
You're feeding the seed
The seed of the tree
Of who you will be...

Beautiful Thoughts.....

A person can make you feel high,
A person can make you feel low.
But only you can decide,
Which way you want to go.

A person can hurt you mentally,
A person can hurt you physically.
But only you can place,
A limit on your abilities.

A person can cause drama,
A person can cause a situation.
But only you can create,
Your own reputation.

A person can make you laugh,
A person can make you cry.
But only you can make,
Decisions for your life.

I guess what I'm trying to say,
That when you're living day to day.
Don't live by what people do,
But live by what you know is true

A True Smile

A smile shouldn't be taken lightly
Some smile all the time, politely
One thing for sure.

A true smile is joy so pure
With a smile, joy is released from the soul
A process initiated at birth to console.

Every smile makes a soul stronger than before
Beware, do not let joy be ignored
If the joy is not let out with a true smile.

It will build up, for awhile
But after a bit it will spoil slow
Diminishing until it becomes pure sorrow.

Though sorrow is needed for a soul maturing
Pure sorrow may outlast a soul most enduring
When this happens a soul will become stronger.

Once decided it wants sorrow no longer
While smiling keep this in thought
And give all, this life lesson to be taught

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!
