We Are The Best

 We Are The Best

“I don’t compare myself with other people, I know I’m the best in my own way”

This is a very nice quote to keep in our minds.

Each and every one of us is as good as anyone else, and we each individually have our own special qualities and talents.

The world we live in is constantly competing against itself but we don’t need to do this.

We know we are “the best” in our own worlds.

It takes courage and self-awareness to confidently say that we do not need to compare ourselves to others.

When we acknowledge that we are the best in our own worlds, we are embracing our individual journey in life.

We are choosing to celebrate our own success rather than comparing our lives to that of others.

This very strong way of thinking serves as a reminder that real happiness comes from within ourselves and our own lives.

By doing this, we are showing ‘the world’ that  we have a deep understanding of our journey in life, self-worth and confidence in our own abilities.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

An Optimistic Life

 An Optimistic Life

“Focus on how far you’ve come — not how far you have to go”

Life is a journey, a progress, we can be a part of if we want to be.

Instead of looking constantly into the distance, we need to focus on how far we have come and the new opportunities that are in front of us today.

Be proud of what you have accomplished and have the confidence that you will go further.

This will help us to stay motivated and positive as we continue on our journey in life.

When we do this, we show others that we have control of our lives.

The beauty of being alive is that we always have ‘tomorrow’ to look forward to, but never miss ‘today’.

Whilst it is good to think about the future, the more we embrace today and live in the moment, the more we will have an optimistic future.

Be proud of who you are and of how far you have come, today.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Remember To Cherish And Appreciate

 Remember To Cherish And Appreciate

“Having a place to go — is a home. Having someone to love — is a family. Having both — is a blessing”

All of these things create a sense of belonging and contentment that is priceless.

Not everyone is fortunate enough to have these two blessings.

One person may have a home and another person may have a family.

For those of us who have both a home and a family, we are truly blessed.

The question is: do we appreciate these blessings?

To be honest, most of us do!

We just get so busy in our chaotic lives that we don’t always ‘think’ about it.

It is very often that when we see war-torn countries on the news and the families who have been split apart and lost their homes through bombing, we ‘remember’ that we have our homes and our families with us.

It is true that we cannot replace a family but we can be a friend and show that family-like love to those who have lost these blessings.

Let’s do our best every day to cherish and appreciate our homes and our families.

You Are Just As Special

 You Are Just As Special

“Make someone smile every day, but never forget that you are someone too”

Love others but love yourself also.

Smiling does so many good things both mentally and physically.

It is a selfless act that encourages optimism and joy.

Just remember to smile at yourself every morning when you look in the mirror.

You deserve to be treated with love and kindness, just as everybody else does.

You are just as important as the people you care for.

It is lovely to be known as the person who is always happy, cheerful and smiling.

You try to be positive to everyone you meet.

Just don’t forget to give yourself that precious self-care time.

Balance is so important here.

It is good to encourage others to smile and be happy in their own lives.

It is just as good to ‘help ourselves’ to do the same.

When you ‘smile’ at yourself you are telling the whole world that you love your life and want to share it with others.

You are just as special as everybody else.

Never Waste This Gift

 Never Waste This Gift

“Don’t let the sadness of your past and the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present”

Live in the moment!

Make those happy memories today.

It is only natural to think about our past but we mustn’t dwell on it, because we will miss out on so many nice opportunities today.

When we have control of our lives now, we will look forward to our futures.

By living ‘today’, we are allowing ourselves to heal from wounds in our past, replacing these with happy memories to one day look back on.

Whilst it is true that no one can ‘see’ the future, by keeping control of our lives today, we will have confidence in ourselves for the future.

Choose to live in the present and you will find joy.

Life today is a gift so never waste it by constantly thinking about the past or worrying about the tomorrow.

Let’s really appreciate this gift of life now and bring happiness, joy and ‘sunshine’ into our lives.

Think With The Heart

 ‘Think  With The Heart’

“Our days are happier when we give people a piece of our heart instead of a piece of our mind”

Let’s face it, this is not always easy.

Everyone has an opinion and we are not all the same.

However, with a little consideration we can at least accept one another.

And consideration, like understanding, comes from the heart.

When we ‘think with our hearts’, our friendships and relationships become more meaningful and fulfilling.

When we show others kindness, we are bringing joy into their lives and this gives that person a feeling of self-worth.

When we choose to show love and gentleness, we ourselves become happier people.

It is very often the small gestures which show how much we care. 

By showing compassion, empathy and understanding we are contributing to a happier and more harmonious world.

Let's Do Our Best

 Let’s Do Our Best

“Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always”

This is such a good reminder to be kind to everyone we meet, whether we know them or not.

Sometimes we are so consumed with our own troubles that we just do not think of others.

All of us are having a ‘battle’ of some kind and a few compassionate words can make all the difference to our day.

Love, kindness and empathy are qualities that we need in this world.

We want everyone to feel supported and accepted.

When we show understanding and compassion and kindness, we are helping to encourage a more sensitive and considerate society.

A pleasant smile can make a person feel so much happier.

Even just opening a door for a mother carrying shopping can make her feel that ‘the world isn’t quite so bad afterall’.

And remember, some disabilities cannot be seen, especially if they are mental.

So let’s do our best to be kind to everyone we meet because they are (usually) kind to us.
