MOMENTS IN LIFE..!

 There Are Moments In Life When You Miss Someone
 So Much That You Just Want To Pick Them From
 Your Dreams And Hug Them For Real!

  
When The Door Of Happiness Closes, Another Opens
 But Often Times We Look So Long At The
 Closed Door That We Don't See The One
 Which Has Been Opened For Us.

Don't Go For Looks; They Can Deceive
 Don't Go For Wenkgh; Even That Fades Away
 Go For Someone Who Makes You Smile
 Because It Takes Only A Smile To
 Make A Dark Day Seem Bright
 Find The One That Makes Your Heart Smile

Dream What You Want To Dream
 Go Where You Want To Go
 Be What You Want To Be
 Because You Have Only One Life
 And One Chance To Do All The Things
 You Want To Do.

May You Have Enough Happiness To Make You Sweet
 Enough Trials To Make You Strong
 Enough Sorrow To Keep You Human And
 Enough Hope To Make You Happy.

The Happiest Of People Don't Necessarily
 Have The Best Of Everything
 They Just Make The Most Of
 Everything That Comes Along Their Way.

The Brightest Future Will Always
 Be Based On A Forgotten Past
 You Can't Go Forward In Life Until
 You Let Go Of Your Past Failures And Heartaches.

When You Were Born, You Were Crying
 And Everyone Around You Was Smiling
 Live Your Life So At The End
 You're The One Who Is Smiling And Everyone
 Around You Is Crying.

The Game of Life

By seeing life as a game, your lightness of spirit will make problems seem easier.

Playing the Game
Sometimes, we take life far too seriously. We forget that life is a game, a play, in which we receive an opportunity to be creative and playful. And each scene invites us to 'play' a different role.

Understanding that we have the capacity to authentically play all the roles, in the right way, at the right moment - allows us to approach life's scenes creatively and effectively.

Discover your Spirit

The theatre of life has it's own script. This can be understood as a fixed destiny. Yet each instant is unique because we have the option tolive each moment as if it were the most important of all. With this awareness you can enjoy every moment and feel peaceful within. You will discover your spirit and the treasure within. Your spirit is full of peace. Your spirit IS peace.

Stress Management

Worry is triggered by any negative memory of the past. It means, you are suffering, and you are probably under the illusion (false belief) that you are enjoying your suffering. It also means you are not living now. You are missing your own life by living in your worries, which are always in the past and in the future. Your worry habit has trapped you in the past where you get the raw material for your worries, and a non-existent future, where you focus that material, and the result is you miss your life now. All this won't change until you choose to change the worry habits that you have recorded in your consciousness (mind). That will require the removal of the illusion (false belief) that you hold inside that it's good and necessary to worry. It's a waste of time and energy. It means replacing the desire to create images of negative futures with positive responses to what is happening in your life right now. Otherwise your 'worry karma' will keep you in permanent pain (sorrow).

♥…….Amazing Truth……..♥

Everyone shows more Love and Care
in the beginning of any Relationship… 
BUT
There Are Very Few Who Maintains It Till..
The END..!
You Never Get A Person OF Your Type In This World.
You Will Either Have To Adjust
Or
You Will Have To Compromise
You Adjust When Someone Wants To Be With You…
And
You Compromise When You Want To Be With Someone ♥
Sometimes the greatest Pain..
the most intense hurt, comes from those 
we Loved and Trusted the most.
When you say I Love you ,you are making a promise with Someoneelses Heart. You should Honor it with actions to prove it. Love is not only an emotion . Love is a verb .

The smile....

Some people, no matter how old they get,
Never lose their beauty,
They merely move it from their
Faces into their hearts.
Desire destroys devotion, anger destroys wisdom, greed destroys work
– hence sacrifice these 
bad qualities.

Sense of Humour

Steer easily through life by keeping a light touch on the controls, and a strong sense of humour.

Trust
If there is the thought that we can do things ourselves without other
people's help, it means that we have arrogance of our own potential
or we are not able to have trust for others. This lack of trust
doesn't allow us to use others' potential for the benefit of the
task. So we are deprived of a very useful resource and we will not be
able to be happy. We need to understand the fact that there is greater
success in cooperation. It is much more useful to invest our time and
resources in training and developing others' potential. This brings
about the best from people and so there is a greater contribution and
hence greater success in every task that we take up.
