The Gift of Knowing You



The Gift Of Knowing You

There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.

But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.

When your times are filled with troubles
Sadness, grief, or even doubt,
When all those things you planned on
Just aren't turning out.

Just turn and look behind you
From the place at which you stand,
And look for me through the shadows
And reach out for my hand.

I will lift from you your burden
And cry for you your tears,
Bear the pain of all your sorrows
Though it may be for a thousand years.

For in the end I would be happy
To have helped you start anew,
It's a small price to pay
For the gift of knowing you.

What Serve You The Best?





Our attitude is not something we’re stuck with forever. We can change it whenever we wish. Our attitude does not define us. It does, however, represent us to the rest of the world. Our attitude does not determine who we are. It does, however, determine what we can accomplish. Our attitude is not the inevitable result of events that happen to us or circumstances that surround us. It is, instead, based on the way we choose to respond to the events and circumstances in our life. We can choose an attitude that will open our eyes to the valuable possibilities. We can choose an attitude that will attract success and accomplishment to us like a magnet. No matter what has happened in the past or where we are now, we are free to choose whatever attitude we wish. So choose, in every moment, a positive, empowering attitude. For that will always serve you the best.


Often your tasks will be many,
And more than you think you can do.
Often the road will be rugged
And the hills insurmountable, too.
But always remember,
The hills ahead
Are never as steep as they seem,
And with faith in your heart
Start upward
And climb until you reach your dream.
For nothing in life that is worthy
Is ever too hard to achieve
If you have the courage to try it,
And you have the faith to believe.
For faith is a force that is greater
Than knowledge or power or skill,
And many defeats turn to triumph
If you trust in God’s wisdom and will.
For faith is a mover of mountains,
There’s nothing that God cannot do,
So, start out today with faith in your heart,
And climb until your dream comes true!

Do This If I Really Want To...


Yeah...do this if I really wanna do this. Not to please anybody nor just for the sake of the program. If I choose to do this I know why I choose to do this anyway :-)

To Heal With LOVE

I believe that everything in life happens for a reason and we only need to recognize the perfection around us. People are not their behaviours and pure love is unconditional and never judgmental.
When we believe other people has hurt us, the only thing we can ever do is to forgive and love. When we forgive them, we don’t need to express our forgiveness, because often we have felt hurt for something that was not meant to hurt us. Many times our need to forgive is often to forgive them for something that we perceived was done to us. It is not necessarily that they wronged us, meant to wrong us or even believe they hurt us.
Forgiveness allows us to forgive for our perception as well as for how we reacted to our perception. Forgiveness allows us to recognize that people don’t necessarily mean to hurt each other but that we can rectify any situation by offering love, compassion, forgiveness and truly feeling remorse at any pain, or perceived pain we have caused.
When we say sorry from our hearts and soul, others feel our love and it does indeed help our own healing, our own growth and ultimately helps us find peace. When we forgive ourselves and when we apologize to others, we are expressing our love: Our love of self, of each other and of God.
Love is what matters in the world. This is my belief. I don’t believe in conditions or demands and I believe that what we put out comes back around to us.


They say...
Rules in love and life. Five Rules to be happy:

1) Free your heart from hatred,

2) Free your mind from worry,

3) Live simply,

4) Expect less and,

5) Give more


And they also say...
It takes 3 seconds to say “I love you”,

3 minutes to explain it,

3 hours to demonstrate it,

3 days to appreciate it,

3 trimester to produce it,

but a LIFETIME to prove it.

Well...The real test of true love is having all the things go wrong but still having a special way to love despite of all the wrong things that may happen.


Always take a CHANCE. The end result may not always be what you hoped for but that’s fine. At least, you will never go through life wondering “What if… and “If only….”


Hold a friend’s hand through times of trial, let him/her find love through a hug and a smile. But also know when it is time to let go, for each and everyone of us must learn to grow.


Love is not a word to say when we feel guilty nor the right word to say when we like a person. But LOVE really matters when we share our thoughts, our minds and our hearts.


Never whisper words of love if the feeling is not true. Never share your feeling if you mean to break a heart. Never look into my eyes if all you have to do is lie.


Genuine friendship is not measured by time but it is measured by acceptance. A friend is one where even though you reflect the silver, he/she sees the GOLD.

When You Believe You Can

There is great power in belief.
It will open your eyes,
your opportunities will become plain,
and your vision can become reality.

There is nothing that stands between you
and what you want from life
except your will to try it
and the faith to believe that it is possible.
Everything is possible if you believe it is.

You must find the energy and determination to keep going.
Your mind will amaze your body and keep it energized.
Keep telling yourself, I can do it,
I must do it, I will do it.

You will only succeed when you believe you can succeed.
The only limit to your realization of tomorrow
will be your doubts of today.

Your mind sets your limits.
To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning.
It is to trust that miracles happen,
and dreams really do come true.

To believe is to see angels
dancing among the clouds
To know the wonder of a stardust sky
and the wisdom of the man in the moon.

To believe is to know the value
of a nurturing heart,
The innocence of a child's eyes
and the beauty of an aging hand,
for it is through their teachings we learn to love.

To believe is to find the strength and
courage that lies within us.
When it is time to pick up
the pieces and begin again.

To believe is to know we are not alone,
That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.

To believe is to know that wonderful
surprises are just waiting to happen,
And all our hopes and dreams
are within reach.

"IF ONLY WE BELIEVE"

Hold On Tightly to What is Truly Important in Life


Hold on to faith
it is the source of believing that all things are possible.
It is the fiber and strength of a confident soul.

Hold on to hope
it banishes doubt and enables attitudes to be positive and cheerful.

Hold on to trust
it is at the core of fruitful relationships that are secure and content.

Hold on to love
it is life's greatest gift of all,
for it shares, cares, and gives meaning to life.

Hold on to family and friends
they are the most important people in your life,
and they make the world a better place.
They are your roots and the beginnings that you grew from
they are the vine that has grown through time to nourish you,
help you on your way,
and always remain close by.

Hold on to all that you are and all that you have learned,
for these things are what make you unique.
Don't ignore what you feel and what you believe is right and important
Your heart has a way of speaking louder than your mind.

Hold on to your dreams
achieve them diligently and honestly.
Never take the easy way or surrender to deceit.
Remember others on your way and take time to care for their needs.
Enjoy the beauty around you.
Have the courage to see things differently and clearly.
Make the world a better place one day at a time,
and don't let go of the important things that give meaning to your life.
