You Just Never Know

 You Just Never Know

“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: It goes on”.

Never forget this!

It is hard to remember when we go through a difficult time in our lives, or when we are so busy, every single day.

Some who have had a terrible accident have been ‘surprised’ to wake up in the hospital — alive! With the expert skills of the doctors and nurses, and the sheer resilience of the human body — life goes on.

When everything looks ‘black’ and it ‘seems’ to be the end of the world, Remember that Life Goes On!

What I say is: fight to stay alive and don’t miss out on anything that is nice and good, because we never know what can, will and does happen, but we need to be Alive to experience these lovely things.

BECAUSE LIFE REALLY DOES GO ON.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Are You Doing What You Want To Do?

 Are You Doing What You Want To Do?

“Do not let making a living prevent you from making a life”.

We all need to go out to work to pay the bills, but sometimes ‘that’ becomes our life and we lose sight of any purpose or happiness. It’s just something that we ‘have’ to do.

What about all our dreams?

What about all of the things that we wanted to do since we were children?

What about making our lives “Meaningful”?

Some of us are happy with our jobs but (possibly) many of us are not, because we had to get the first job that came along to support our families.

Some of us have been able to ‘make our lives’ what we wanted them to become. Many of us have not.

The beauty of living today is that we can change our lives — if we really  want to.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A Real Life Living 'Fairy-Tale'

 A Real Life Living ‘Fairy-Tale’

“Life is the most wonderful fairy tale”.

This is such a lovely quote.

What ‘fairy-tales’ can we find in life? What do you consider to be a ‘fairy-tale’?

The obvious one is the bride, in her beautiful white wedding dress, marrying ‘her Prince’, the groom, in his dashing suit, with both families looking on smiling. If only for that one day, the bride and groom are living their ‘fairy-tale’.

The mother holding her new-born baby for the first time, with the father cuddling them both. A real life living ‘fairy-tale’.

Living on this Amazing and Beautiful planet Earth can be considered a ‘fairy-tale’. Afterall, Earth has been called The Jewel in Space, with all of It’s Colour and Life.

Dolphins dance in the Oceans, horses gallop along the fields, we smell the divine roses, whilst birds fly and sing overhead, in the sky.

Doesn’t this sound like a ‘fairy-tale’?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Life Should Be Simple

 Life Should Be Simple

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated”.

Life is and should be Simple.

It is the world around us that makes it ‘seem’ complicated.

Sometimes it is the way we are brought up that adds to this.

However, when we stop, sit down and ‘think’ about life, we can think of ways in which we can simplify life.

The word “Simple” means: “easily understood, presenting no difficulty” and / or “plain, basic, or uncomplicated”.

The ‘basics’ of life are straightforward. To eat, drink, move, sleep, wake up and start again. Of course, in this world, we go to school / college to learn things that will help us to “Live” and work. And when we go out to work, we ‘earn our living’.

But even in this, try to keep life as Simple as possible, because this will only have a good effect on us mentally, as well as physically.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

You deserve To Be Happy

 You Deserve To Be Happy

“The purpose of our lives is to be happy”.

We always want to see our children happy and giggling as they play, learning new skills, every single day.

Why not us adults?

We deserve just as much happiness.

As life moves on and we get older, with more responsibilities, we tend to ‘forget’ this.

The dolphin has a permanent Smile — why not us?

Dogs wag their tails when they are happy, especially when we give them attention — why not give ourselves some attention?

I love cats (tame and wild) and when I see one, I just have to stroke it (only the tame ones mind you), smiling and chatting away — it makes me feel Happy.

What makes you feel Happy?

Do something that makes you feel Happy, every single day, because you Deserve to be Happy.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Never Forget This!

 Never Forget This!

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose”.

This is something we sometimes forget.

Each one of us has the ability, and very often the means, to Control our lives.

Even a person who has special needs (or is disabled) has this ability. They may show it in a different way, but it is still there.

And we must Encourage them to Control their own lives too!

The snake doesn’t have feet but it still moves and lives its life.

The dolphin has flippers instead of feet but how beautiful it looks, dancing in the Oceans of the Earth, living its life, with that Smile.

We are no different!

As humans, we belong to this Earth, so let’s show that we belong here.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Just Be Yourself

 Just Be Yourself

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken”.

This is a lovely quote.

To be ‘ourselves’, we need to accept ourselves for who we are.

And LOVE ourselves.

When we are young, we start by ‘copying’ our parents, and then through the teenage years, we start to develop our own unique personalities.

The difficulty comes when we compare ourselves to others, and then we try to “be” that other person.

But why?

We are just as good as him or her, and each one of us has a talent that the other doesn’t have.

So, accept who you are, mentally, and the rest will always follow.

“Just be yourself!”

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
