Wisdom

If there's something special you want to do,

now is the time...

if you want to make a difference

in the world,

now is the time. 

Don't be fooled into thinking you should wait

until you are older or wiser or more 'secure' -

because it doesn't work that way.

The wisdom will come.

The security will come.

But first you must begin your adventure.

Ron Atchison

 

 

Inspiration

Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain.
An occasional glance towards the summit keeps
 the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes
are to be observed from each new vintage point.- Harold B Melchart

Dreams

"There will always be dreams grander

 or humbler than your own,

but there will never be a dream exactly

like your own...

for you are unique and more

wondrous than you know!"

 

 

Friends

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.

Thought for Today

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,

a smile, a kind word, a listening ear,

an honest compliment,

or the smallest act of caring,

all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Be Happy

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now.
Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future.
Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or
with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savoured
Earl Nightingale (1921-1989)
