“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
Dr.Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
I would rather die living than live dying.
Some people are afraid to live. They play it safe and become a prisoner of what they never wanted. They have dreams and even believe in themselves, but give up too easily. Then their soul dies.
But there is a dream that belongs to you only and you can’t be afraid to pursue it.
I would rather die living my dream than survive living a life that isn’t me.
“People suffer when they pursue a life or chase a dream that doesn’t belong to them” Caroline Myss
When you live for today,
Rather than in the past or for the future.
When you stop looking for happiness
And start giving it to others.
When you want less of what you can see
And more of what you can’t see.
When anything in the world could be yours
And you choose the simple things.
When you have something to live for
That makes you feel alive.
When joy doesn’t depend upon the external
But upon the eternal.
When your life has roots
And your dreams have wings.
When you know the value of love
And value it above all else.
When you never let go of hope
But hold onto it for life.
When you have a purpose to fulfill
That fulfills you.
When you haven’t the strength to go on
But you’ve too much heart to give up.
When you aren’t led by your fears
But by your faith.
When you can find something good in the bad
And consider it a blessing.
When you would take nothing
For what is most important to you.
When you realize that success and failure
Are only what you think.
When you know the storms of life
Will pass on to a brighter day.
When you don’t waste time worrying
But use it to make a difference.
When you need something to stand on,
And your standards speak for themselves.
When you accept life on its own terms
And use them to determine your own.
When you are touched by the beauty around you
And the world is touched
by the beauty in you……

Love…We think about it, sing about it, dream about it, lose sleep worrying about it. When we don’t have it, we search for it; when we discover it, we don’t know what to do with it; when we have it, we fear losing it. It is the constant source of pleasure and pain. But we can’t predict which it will be from one moment to the next. It is a short word, easy to spell, difficult to define, impossible to live without”

“If you don’t like what is going on in your life you need to devise a way to make yourself happy. No one can make you unhappy unless you let them. Things can make you unhappy, but you learn from these situations”
Joan Lucas
Sometimes things don’t work out
This doesn’t mean nothing will
One thing isn’t everything
Now isn’t forever even though it may feel like it
Give yourself time to see things clearly
What we feel isn’t always true
In time the disappointments will pass
Your feelings will change
Your life will be different
You will have new dreams
No matter how hard we try
We can’t hold on to today
It will pass
So we must hold its joys and disappointments
With open hands
Because they weren’t meant to stay
But to fill today’s purpose
Let go of your disappointments
So your hands will be free
To accept tomorrow’s blessings
Life is not just one day of your life
But all of your tomorrows
Each day has its own happiness
Enjoy today but then move on
To enjoy all of your tomorrows

You have to trust that God has a better plan, and life will get better when it is supposed to.
With prayer we speak to God, with miracles he responds
“You cannot be any good for anyone else until you are first good to yourself. I also think it is impossible to really love anyone else unless you first love yourself. How can you give another person your best if you do not believe you have anything wonderful to offer”
Larry Winget
Believe in faith, believe that life will turn out well. First believe that there is something better out there than what you have been experiencing. So believe in faith…what other choice is there?
Greg Behrendt
It is necessary to trust what the heart knows. The heart is intuitive, relational and has computing ability that is very accurate. Your heart is far more rational than the mind. Trust in the wisdom of your feelings
