"It" Gives Us That Friendly Smile

 “It” Gives Us That Friendly Smile

“Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day.”

This is so true!

Every morning is a new opportunity to ‘paint on the day’s canvas’.

When we put a positive thought into our minds, first thing in the morning, the ‘picture we paint’ will be a beautiful one to look back and remember.

The choice is ours!

One simple affirmation, first thing in the morning, will strengthen our minds and encourage us to have a kind and compassionate attitude all day.

Every positive thought instills in us a sense of purpose and also enthusiasm.

It is amazing to “see” how this one positive thought affects everything we do during the day.

“It” gives us that friendly smile, creating an atmosphere of kindness and optimism.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Let "Time" Guide You

Let “Time” Guide You

“Time has a way of showing us what really matters in life.”

Time has the ability to ‘show us’ what is important in life.

When we control our time, we control our lives.

Every one of us is so busy in our everyday lives, we don’t always see what or who is important to us.

When we look over our lives — what do we see?

“Time” encourages us to reflect on our lives, as we grow towards our dreams.

But never be so busy that we don’t have time for our dreams.

Make that time!

As we grow in life, our priorities change as we gain insight into who we really are.

We need to cherish every moment of our lives, never wasting time with hatred and jealousy.

Let “Time” guide you towards a happy, strong and positive life.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Will Reflect In Our Future

It Will Reflect In Our Future

“The future depends on what you do today.”

Time is continuous and whatever we do today will affect our future.

Our future is one big canvas being printed on every single day we are alive.

This makes us think!

We need to make sure that, whatever we do in our day, has a positive impact, not just on the moment, but also on the future.

The seeds we plant today, in our lives, will develop in our futures.

We must make sure these are strong, confident and optimistic.

Even the relationships we start to develop today will either aid or hinder us in the future.

And acts of kindness and compassion that we do today will reflect in our futures.

This especially applies to this planet Earth we live on.

Our choices today will ensure what kind of future we will have.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Pave The Way To Triumph

Pave The Way To Triumph

“Do not give your past the power to define your future.”

It is true that our past experiences shape us into who we are today, but we must not let the past hold us back.

It is what we do today that will define our future.

Every moment is an opportunity to ‘use’ to become the person we want to become.

By allowing ourselves to be tied to the past we are making ourselves prisoners of the past, and we will never grow and move forwards.

By learning from the past, we are empowering ourselves to ‘create’ the kind of future that we want.

The skills and knowledge that we have developed in the past, can be used today in defining our future.

Freeing ourselves from the past will help us to dream and to achieve our dreams.

We Feel Much Better

 We Feel Much Better

“How amazing is it to find someone who wants to hear about all the things that go on in your head.”

One of the greatest kindnesses that anyone can do is to sit down and listen to another person.

We all live in our ‘own worlds’ and can sometimes feel alone, isolated and think that no one understands us.

When someone sits down with us and patiently listens while we ‘let out’ what is really on our minds, we realise that we are not alone but that we are understood.

We feel much better and happier.

We also become closer to the person who listened to us without judging us.

Sometimes, this is all that is needed for us to feel better and to get on with our lives.

Never forget, though, that there is professional help if we need it.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A Strong And Caring Community

A Strong And Caring Community

“If we judge people, nobody is ours. If we understand people, everyone is ours.”

It may be a ‘human thing’ or just the world we grow up in but it is so easy to judge someone by jumping to the wrong conclusion, maybe without even knowing all of the facts.

If and when we do this, we will lose that person as a friend or as a loved one.

However, if we give him or her the benefit of the doubt, and try to understand them with the quality of compassion, that person will know that someone is on their side.

And we all need that!

This will enrich our lives because we will keep our friend or loved one, and this will build up a strong and caring community.

A heart that understands is better than a heart that doesn’t care.

We all deserve to feel loved and valued in our lives.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A Beacon Of Kindness

A Beacon Of Kindness

“The world is filled with nice people, if you can’t find one be one.”

We are all so busy that we do not always realise when we or even someone else is “being nice.”

It is rare that a person is deliberately nasty as most people are ‘nice people’.

Every single one of us has the power to be kind.

Sometimes we may need to be a beacon of kindness.

A smile at the right time.

Shaking an old friend’s hand.

Giving a loved one a hug.

All of these actions remind everyone of the ‘goodness in humanity’.

When we are going through difficult times, it is not easy to remember that the people around us do care.

But we must make the effort to remember this and ‘triumph over the bad people’ by being a good person.

The world “IS” full of nice people.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
