Thought For Today
You only have this life to live once. Don’t spend it worrying about what could have been, who hurt you and who wasn’t loyal. The power of happiness is in your hands. Yours is the choice to make. So cast aside anything or anyone that takes away from your happiness. While you still have this life, be happy!
Thought For the Day
Don’t accept that where you are in life now is where you were meant to be. Life is challenging and you may be struggling but believe that God will get you to the next level. Dream big…the best is yet to come. (Marva Seaton)
Inspirational Quote
In Life you will realize that there is a purpose for everyone you meet
Some will test you, some will use you and some will teach you.
But most important are the ones that bring out the best in you.
They are the rare and amazing people who remind you why it’s worth it.
(Unknown)
Positive Quote
Today I share with you a positive and inspiration quote from Colin Powell. It is a little long but worth reading. The message is powerful and enlightening.
“The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve.
Any time you tolerate mediocrity in others, it increases your mediocrity. An
important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative
thinking and negative acting people. As you grow, your associates will
change. Some of your friends will not want you to go on. They will want you
to stay where they are. Friends that don’t help you climb will want you to
crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dream. Those that
don’t increase you will eventually decrease you.
Consider this:
Never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems
with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who
never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has
a right to speak into your life. You are certain to get the worst of the
bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person. Don’t follow anyone
who’s not going anywhere.
With some people you spend an evening: with others you invest it. Be careful
where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life. Wise is the
person who fortifies his life with the right friendships. If you run with
wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you
will learn how to soar to great heights.
“A mirror reflects a man’s face, but what he is really like is shown by the
kind of friends he chooses.”
The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you
closely associate – for the good and the bad.
Note: Be not mistaken. This is applicable to family as well as friends.
Yes…do love, appreciate and be thankful for your family, for they will
always be your family no matter what. Just know that they are human first
and though they are family to you, they may be a friend to someone else and
will fit somewhere in the criteria above.
“In Prosperity Our Friends Know Us. In Adversity We Know Our friends.”
“Never make someone a priority when you are only an option for them.”
“If you are going to achieve excellence in big things,you develop the habit in little matters.
Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude..”..” (Colin Powell)
Quote
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young
Compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving
and tolerant with the weak and strong. Because some day in
Your life you will have been one of these.
G.W. Carver

Don’t Wait
Don’t wait to do what should be done,
That you have long delayed –
For we are not assured the grace
To live beyond today;
And we cannot return from death
To what we left behind,
To do some deed we should have done
For God or humankind.
Don’t wait to speak the words of love
Another waits to hear,
Don’t wait to hug, in warm embrace,
Some heart you hold so dear;
And wait no more to share your wealth
With charities in need
Or beg forgiveness of the Lord
For hidden, sinful deeds.
Today is yours to do or say
What you have long delayed –
That should be said – or should be done
Before your Judgement Day;
And you, dear heart – just you, alone –
Know what you’ve left to do
To better complement your life
Before this day is through.
Michael Dubina
Turn to God {Delphine LeDoux}
When your spirit’s heavy-laden
And your sorrows get you down,
When your heartaches overwhelms you
And your problems make you frown…
Don’t weep bitter tears of sadness
Nor give way to dark despair;
Don’t give up; you have a Father
You can always reach with prayer.
Just remember He is waiting;
He can make all things come right;
You can reach Him when you are troubled,
Be it day or darkest night.
He is always there to listen
And help you if you ask;
He can soothe your worried spirit;
He can lighten every task.
