"THOUGHT OF THE DAY"
"Life doesn't always introduce you to the people you WANT to meet. Sometimes life puts you in touch with the people you NEED to meet - to help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you, and to graduallystrengthen you into the person you were meant to become."
Copyright © 2012 Spencer Chapman
People are put in to your path for a reason, every single one of them; I know that to be so true today - some leave, some stay, because that is life...
"A strong man is not he who can lift the most weight, it is he who can resist temptation."

Before you speak, think:
Is it necessary?
Is it true?
Is it kind?
Will it hurt anyone?
Will it improve on the silence?

"Sometime for some of us - our faith is like a baby. We protect faith and show fear in the form of critical judgment. This stunts our own faith, our hope and even our love. When we understand our self,faith is grown and empowering. All of us will share together in safety - for peace and harmony."
Akicita Wakan Mani --- Submitted by Jaye La Vallee
I remember being asked to join hands with people of other faiths and refusing to do so. The elder said to me. "Come on, if you need to - pray for them." I did not understand then, that I was afraid. I - wrongly -thought that I was doing something to show them I was "more faithful". The understanding did not come until years later during a ceremony. I realize too that my faith was little and that I need to "grow-up"and be with faith... Pilamaya - thank you.
"Life is the dance and some people enrich our lives so much in small ways, in small moments in time...the good treasures of our lives are never to be forgotten. The painful ones are best forgotten."

"Just as the power of life and death is in the tongue, so also is the power of action and inaction in the mind."

Action or inaction is always the choice of the mind, which is controlled by me. This quote helps me to work while I work.

"You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have methinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change."

"Trousers and dresses can only clothe your body; prayers clothe your insides and books clothe your destiny."
Copyright © 2012 Bridget Benya
We often buy dresses to look good - to impress others - don't get anything, but buying books we get knowledge. People are writers today because of books, because of learning; some are in prison because of ignoring a prayer.

"We spend days of sadness to enjoy a myth of happily ever after life. Rather we should live in the present moment and enjoy and celebrate every day of the gift of life."
Author Unknown --- Submitted by Neel Sarkar
Few days back I realized that I always focused all my energies in creating a happily ever after life as seen in movies rather than enjoy the gift granted by God every day.

"I'm doing my best, the best I know how and when I know better, I will do better."
Written in 2007 by Elizabeth Cavu Jarema
It's my own quote. It came about at a time in my life where I was struggling with a lot of personal issues and many thoughts came to mind that led me to put this quote together. It answered a lot ofquestions that I was dealing with at the time. It is a quote I have shared with many people and they seemed to relate to it as well. So, I would like to share to the world. It is still one of my favorites.
