Beauty“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. If you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of each of your arms.” ~Audrey Hepburn~ . "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt within the heart." ~Helen Keller~ . "People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within." ~Elisabeth Kübler-Ross~ Life's a Laugh"The hardest thing you can do is smile when you are ill, in pain, or depressed. But this no-cost remedy is a necessary first half-step if you are to start on the road to recovery. "
~Allen Klein~ ."Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing." ~Mother Teresa The Power of Positive Thinking"I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances."
~Martha Washington~ . "The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same." ~Carlos Castaneda~ . "It's not what happens to you that determines how far you will go in life ;it is how you handle what happens to you." ~Zig Ziglar~ . "A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely. " ~Roald Dahl~ The Importance of Character"Watch you thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become your character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny." ~Unknown~ .

Looking on the Bright Side of LifeThe most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e.e. cummings~ . "Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass... It's about learning how to dance in the rain."~Vivian Green~ . “We tend to forget that happiness doesn’t come as a result of getting something we don’t have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.”~Frederick Keonig~ . “Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So, love people who treat you right, forgive the ones who don’t, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said it’d be easy, they just promised it’d be worth it.” ~Unknown~ . "To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly... to listen to stars and buds, to babes and sages, with open heart; await occasions, hurry never...this is my symphony." ~William Henry Channing~ ."Every day may not be good, but there's something good in every day."~Unknown~ "Love fervently live virtuously laugh heartily cry passionately speak truthfully help willingly hope shamelessly dream endlessly and never stop believing." ~unknown~ Wisdom of Helen KellerHelen Keller was blind and deaf, yet she did not allow any obstacle to hold her back. Despite her disabilities, she remained content and led a successful life as an author, lecturer and activist. She may be gone, but her legacy and her words remain an inspiration. Helen Keller is proof that your circumstances define neither who you are nor what you can accomplish. . "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." . "Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content." . "Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged." . "I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do." . "Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye." . "Your success and happiness lies in you. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties." Words to Live By"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore. Dream. Discover."
~Mark Twain~ . "Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless." ~ Mother Teresa~ . "Let go of anger - it is an acid that burns away the delicate layers of your happiness." ~Unknown~ . "Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile." ~Mother Teresa~ |
