Are you willing

Are you willing :  To forget : What you have done for other people, and to remember what other people have done for you;   To ignore : What the world owes you, and to think what you owe the world;   To put : Your rights in background, your duties in the middle distance, and your chances to do a little more than your duty in the foreground;   To see : that your fellow men are just as real as you are, and try to look behind their faces into their hearts hungry for joy;  To own : that- probably the only good reason for your existence is not what you are going to get out of life, but what you are going to give to life.   To close : your book of complaints against the management of the universe, and to look around

"Make a pact with yourself,never to act or speak when driven by the whirlwinds of anger,fear,hurt,jealousy or resentment"

"Laughing at ourselves is possible when we are able to see humanity as it is-a little lower than the angels and at times only slightly higher than the apes."

Happiness is a journey, not a destination

 "For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, or a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.  So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time...and remember that time waits for no one.  So, stop waiting until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until winter, until your song comes on.... there is no bett...
