GIFT OF TRUE UNDERSTANCDING
“The sad truth is that opportunity doesn’t knock twice. You can put things off until tomorrow, but tomorrow may never come. Where will you be a few years down the line? Will it be everything you dreamed of? We seal our fate with the choices we make, but don’t give a second thought to the chances we take.”
============================================
“Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment”
– Rita Mae Brown
============================================
All things are difficult before they are easy. ~Thomas Fuller If you think that something small cannot make a difference, try going to sleep with a mosquito in the room.
============================================
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. ~unknown
============================================
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
============================================
“I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God’s hands, that I still possess.”
============================================
“Letting go doesn’t mean giving up, but rather accepting that there are things that cannot be.”
============================================
Whenever you are down, always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think and then you have me too! Life isn’t so bad !
============================================
I will learn something new;
I will try something different;
I will savor all the various flavors life has to offer.
I will change what I can and the rest I will let go.
I will strive to become the best me I can possibly be.
….. and every day.
============================================
I am responsible for my own happiness
and I will do things that make me happy. . .
admire the beautiful wonders of nature,
listen to my favorite music,
pet a kitten or a puppy,
soak in a bubble bath . . .
pleasure can be found in the most simple of gestures.
============================================
You never know who these people may be;
your roommate, your neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover
or even a complete stranger who, when you lock eyes with them,
you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.
============================================
Everything Happens For A Reason
Sometimes people come into your life
and you know right away that they were meant to be there,
they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson
or help figure out who you are or who you want to become.
============================================
We Do Not Truly Understand…
Joy…
until we face sorrow.
Faith…
until it is tested.
Peace…
until faced with conflict.
Trust…
until we are betrayed.
Love…
until it is lost.
Hope…
until confronted with doubts.
Then when faced with these things, we arrive at a place deeper than mental understanding. It is a place called experience.
Experience then brings knowing…
… and we come to know joy, faith, peace, trust, love, and hope beyond all doubt.
Then we can share these blessings as the most valuable gifts we have to give.
