Keep smilling friends...

In the bustling live of city folks, a small good deed may end up putting a big smile on the face of everyone. Who says we cannot smile while rushing to get into LRT or busses? While queuing up for your ride, turn to the people beside you and give them a friendly and warm smile. smile.gif
Perhaps your smile will make the person to feel the warmness and happy for the rest of the day.. Cheers..!!

A smile costs nothing but gives much.
It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give.
It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.
None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it.
And none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it.
Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen,
for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.

Some people are too tired to give you a smile.
Give them one of yours,
as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Flame is the light like a star in the sky
It will burn forever strong and light the way for you and I
We wish upon the stars, that dreams will take us far
Hope and peace in the world we all belong

Love love love we will share together
Love love love we are one

One world one dream
Let us share our hearts together all as one
In a place where we join in the harmony
One world one dream
Let us celebrate the powers of our heroes
Who’ll rise with strength and pride

Love love love we will share together
Love love love we are one

Time and time again they flexed their power spirit and glory
Win or lose they stood together high
Hearts and souls unite together
Bring the worlds to love each other
Reach reach for the sky

One world one dream
Let us share our hearts together all as one
In a place where we join in harmony
One world one dream
Let us celebrate the powers of our heroes
Who’ll rise with strength and pride
Light the passion share the dream all as one

What Letting Go Really Means...

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring. It means I can't do it for someone else.

To "let go" is not to cut myself off. It's the realization that I can't control another.

To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands, but in God's.

To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another. It's to make the most possible out of myself.

To "let go" is not to care for, but care about.

To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.

To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being, as we all are.

To "let go" is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.

To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept.

To "let go" is not to nag, scold, fuss, or argue; but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.

To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.

To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to live for today and grow for the future.

To "let go" is to fear less and to love more.



This is to remind you and myself that each one of us has things in our life beyond our control – and often the healthy thing is to let go... in the proper way.

A sign of new hope,
a hope of change,
a change in life,
a life full of love,
appreaciate these changes,
before it's too late.

Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the men of old; seek what they sought. ~ Basho

***

Ten thousand flowers in spring
the moon in autumn,
a cool breeze in summer,
snow in winter.
If your mind isn't clouded by unnecessary things,
this is the best season of your life.
~ Wu-men

***

The instant you speak about a thing, you miss the mark.

If you're attached to anything, you surely will go far astray.

Only the crystal-clear question yields a transparent answer.

All of the significant battles are waged within the self.

Life is the only thing worth living for.

Better to sit all night than to go to bed with a dragon.

Live every day like your hair was on fire.

If you understand, things are just as they are; if you do not understand, things are just as they are.

When you get to the top of the mountain, keep climbing.

The mind should be as a mirror.


There is nothing infinite apart from finite things.

Everyday life is the way.

Great Faith. Great Doubt. Great Effort. - The three qualities necessary for training.

If you do not get it from yourself, Where will you go for it?

Do not permit the events of your daily life to bind you, but never withdraw yourself from them.

Where there is great doubt, there will be great awakening; small doubt, small awakening, no doubt, no awakening.

Sitting peacefully doing nothing Spring comes and the grass grows all by itself.

Everything the same; everything distinct.

Lovely snowflakes, they fall nowhere else!

Chop wood, carry water.

Possessing much knowledge is like having a thousand foot fishing line with a hook, but the fish is always an inch beyond the hook.

A noble heart never forces itself forward. Its words are as rare gems, seldom displayed and of great value.

If you meet on the way a man who knows, Don't speak a word -- Don't keep silent!

Even a good thing isn't as good as nothing.

This is not the Buddha, this is the Buddha.

One moon shows in every pool, in every pool the one moon.

The ambiance was so soft, one could almost hear them talking...

The first candle said: "I'm PEACE! The world is full of anger and fighting, no one can keep me lit."
And the flame of Peace went out completely...

Then the second candle said: "I'm FAITH! I'm not longer indispensable. It doesn't make sense that I stay lit another moment."
And a breeze softly blew out Faith's flame...

Sadly the third candle began to speak: "I'm LOVE! People don't understand my importance. They completely put me aside. They even forget to love those who are nearest to them. I haven't the strength to stay lit."
And waiting no longer, Love's flame went out...

Suddenly, a child enterd the room and saw the three unlit candles.
"Why aren't you burning? You are supposed to stay lit till the end and saying this, he began to cry...

Then the fourth candle answered: "Don't be afraid, I'm HOPE! While I'm still burning, we can re-light the other candles!"
With shining eyes the child took the candle of Hope and did just that...

The flame of Hope should never go out from your life and with HOPE each of us can live a life with PEACE, FAITH and LOVE!

"Life moves on.... even in sorrow and uncertainty.
The sun still rises and sets even in days of doubt and despair.
And all of the endless processes and purposes of life persist despite discouragement.
And despite discouragement there is still reason for living and building for the future
For what seems to be an ending event is not an end
But only another event in an eternal journey."

LOVE NEVER FAILS;
but if there are gifts of prophecy,
they will be done away;
if there are tongues,
they will cease;
if there is knowledge,
it will be done away.

it is more difficult to be witty every day than to say pretty things from time to time.”

I'm sorry for not being able to be more inspirational, except for pointing out the fact that the simplest means of data transfer are often the most efficient and error free.

To Really Give...

There was a family that was experiencing a small tragedy. One of their two sons had acquired an illness that required a marrow transplant. Of course, the medical personel had all the family members tested to see who had the proper type of blood. It turned out the older brother of the sick boy was the perfect match.

So the father sat the older brother down and told what they needed to do in simplest terms for the young boy. The father told him that his little brother was very very sick and that he needed to show his little brother how much he loved him by having surgery. The doctors need to take a little piece of him and put it in his little brother's body so that he doesn't die. The young boy thought about it for a couple seconds, and then he said he would do it.

So the older brother went through surgery. it was a success, and his little brother was recovering quickly. After the relief and joy passed over and the family was just sitting around relaxing, the father noticed his older son looking a little down and depressed. He took his son aside and asked him why he wasn't happy- his brother was getting better. His son said that he was very glad that his brother was getting better. So the father asked again, why are you so sad? The boy said, "When is it time for me to die?"

That's when the father realized what the boy actually had on his mind. His older son believed in his heart of hearts that he had to give up his own life so that his little brother who he loved could live.



Can we really give the next time someone you know – or don’t know – really needs some help?
