ALWAYS BE THANKFUL......................

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.

Life is a beautiful gift

These are some positive quotes that floated into my mind and took shape in due course.


Life is a beautiful gift granted to only those who have some talents in them and is a grant given by the most superior- The almighty
So realize it and live each second to its fullest rather than comparing yourself with others for seeing how much more special you are because it is only a waste of time as God has made everyone with something special ! :)



Life is full of twists and turns
And the best driver is the one who reaches his destiny without hitting his vehicle [life] even once while taking some of the most difficult turns and he will be the only person who will enjoy every second of his ride :)





Nothing you think is impossible but trying to think the way others do is impossible !!
Everything is a big YES
Nothing is even a small NO !!
Always think Positive and your results will be Positive.
Never think Negative so That your results are not Negative
Don't Cry so that life doesn't seem to be filled with tears
Always smile so that Life too seems to beam at you at every point !! :)
And above all be yourself rather than trying to be someone else !!
Because Life is beautiful only when you live it according to your views and not according to other's !! :)

A LESSON IN PRESERVANCE

Have you ever observed the behaviour of birds in the face of adversity ?
 

For days and days they make their nest, sometimes gathering materials brought from far away.



And when they have completed the nest and are ready to lay eggs, the weather or the work of humans, or some animal, destroys it, and it falls to the ground, all that they have done with so much effort.



Do they stop?
Bewildered, and leave their work ?


No Way !!
They start over building the nest again and again until they have eggs in the nest again.




Sometimes, and very often before the chicks are hatched, an animal, a child, or a storm destryos the nest once again, but this time with its valuable contents.




It hurts to go back and begin again.....
Even so, the birds do not stop, they continue to sing and build , and keep singing and building.




Do you sometimes get the feeling that your life, your work, your family is not what you had dreamed. Do you sometimes want to say 'enough', the effort is not worthwhile. It is all too much for me!


Are you tired of it all? Do you feel that the daily struggle is a waste of time, your trust has been betrayed, your goals not reached just as you were about to get them ?




Life strikes you down sometimes, but do you go on, say a prayer, put your faith in hope, not darkness? Do not worry if you get injured in the battle, that is to be expected. Gather yourself together and rebuild your life, so that it runs well again .


No matter what happens.....
Do not shrink back. but move forward. Life is a constant challenge, but it is worthwhile to mostly accept it.

In Life................

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind.
She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.  He was always there for her.   She told her boyfriend, If I could only see the world, I would marry you.

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.

He asked her, Now that you can ! see the world, will you marry me?

The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind.  The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her.  She hadn't expected that.  The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying:  Take good care of  your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like before, and only a very few remember who was always by their side in the most painful situations.

SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT LIFE


If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do
not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved, but in my time, not yours
 

once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.

 
If you find yourself stuck in traffic; don’t despair. There are people in
this world for whom driving is an unheard  privilege.
 

 
Should you have a bad day at work; Think of the man who has been out of work for years
 



Should you despair over a relationship gone bad; Think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return
 



 
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; Think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children
 



Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance; Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
 



Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.

 


Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what my purpose is? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.

 


Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness,
ignorance, smallness or insecurities; Remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them
