THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

"Some things have to be believed to be seen."

"Success in life
is a matter not so much
of talent or opportunity
as of concentration and perseverance."

When a newly married couple smiles, everyone knows why :pash:

When a ten year married couple smiles, everyone wonders why

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

---HAPPY NAME DAY TO ALL CELEBRATING TODAY---

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

You can never get enough of what you don't need to make you happy.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Technology is so much fun but we can drown in our technology. The fog of information can drive out knowledge.

"Do not let what you can't do
interfere with what you can do."

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to
ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken
probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts
too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with
your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.
You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose
someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love
like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset
is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Allow Your Own Inner Light to Guide You

There comes a time when you must stand alone.

You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams.

You must be willing to make sacrifices.

You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved.

Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged.

There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities.

Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better.

Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by.

Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.

Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way.

Well said Ajax.
I particularly like the last one.....Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way......

and if they cant handle my sunlight - I suggest they wear sunglasses :shades: hahahahaaaaa!!!!

"If we are looking for it,
we can experience a new horizon every day."

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

My own experience and development deepen everyday my conviction that our moral progress may be measured by the degree in which we sympathize with individual suffering and individual joy.

Good friends are like stars...You don't always see them,
but you know they are always there.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Hating people is like burning down your own house to get rid of a rat.

Thought for the Day

"Don't take life too seriously. You'll never get out of it alive."

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.

If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.

You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

Ajax...

im going to add one, its not particualry nice and may not fit in with this topic, but it can put a smile on ur face which is the main thing

enjoy

"if you want the rainbow you have to put up with the rain"

and another

"we ache because we are human, to learn from it, that is wisdom"

all together now...1...2....3 awwwwwwwwwww

the above quotes stated are very true... too bad they are easier said than done though ...

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire. If you did what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something, for it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations, because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary, because it means you've made a difference.

It's easy to be thankful for the good things.

A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.

Find a way to be thankful for your troubles, and they can become your blessings.

"Good deeds that
are done silently
and for a good motive
are the dead that live even in the grave;
they are flowers that withstand the storm,
they are stars that know no setting."

Wishing you all a Merry Christmasssssssssssss

Never give up!

Reach for the stars!

Success is closer than you know!

Always give love and it will return to you someday!

Inside every person is a deep inner knowledge.

Trust in yourself.

You are far more powerful than you can imagine.

If you can think it, you can create it.

Believe in yourself because no one else will.

May your day be bright.......
and all that is good shine upon you.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

"Let a person rejoice when he is confronted with obstacles, for it means that he has reached the end of some particular line of indifference or folly, and is now called upon to summon up all his energy and intelligence in order to extricate himself, and to find a better way; that the powers within him are crying out for greater freedom, for enlarged exercise and scope." --James Allen

The whole secret of a succesful life is to find out what is one's destiny to do, and then do it. - Henry Ford

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Life is like arriving late for a movie, having to figure out what was going on without bothering everybody with a lot of questions, and then being unexpectedly called away before you find out how it ends.

One is to have positive thoughts - to change the negative into positive, which is known as having positive thoughts. Negative can become positive and you can change it. But simply check whether you had positive thoughts even whilst performing actions. And the second is to constantly have good wishes for others. Positive thoughts and good wishes for others have a connection with each another. If you don't have positive thoughts, you can't have good wishes for others. Therefore, pay attention to these two aspects.

Ajax.......

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

I have learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances.

positive thought of the day:

"The greatest challenge in life is going through life itself"

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Never underestimate how you look to others.
And Smile!!!

To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all...that is genius...

A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the luster of the firmament of bards and sages.

Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty.


Ajax......

"Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere."

We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.

Knowledge is gained by learning; trust by doubt; skill by practice; love by love.

The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard but must be felt with the heart.

Thats nice AjAx

Good things happen to those who wait Im waiting

No matter what their age...... all men think the same lol.

To accomplish great things we must not only act but also dream, not only plan but also believe.

this is a horror thread.. the emails i love to delete.

follow your dreams, i'm living proof.. BEEFCAKE!

Always beleive in yourself - cause you can DO IT

"In water you see your own face, but in wine the heart of its garden"

"what i feel i can't say, but my love is there for you anytime of day"

George Harrison - 'What is Life' (All Things Must Pass 1971)

The brain is like a muscle. When we think well, we feel good. Understanding is a kind of ecstasy.

- Carl Sagan , Broca's Brain

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for.
