Offer yourself no reasons, no excuses and no justifiers for your life. You are in charge of your own destiny. No one or no thing is to blame for you not getting what you can have. When you offer up excuse, you offer yourself defeat. You will never be beaten until you say you are beaten. You must become unreasonable. No reasons, no excuses and no justifiers. You are what and where you are by your own choices. Accept this and trust the process.
Dalai Lama

People love to tell how life is unfair, unjust and inequitable. Here is the real story. Life is a process of sowing and reaping! A focused, consistent, positively motivated and disciplined character is essential to making your life story have a happy ending. Till your mental soil with determination. Fertilize your emotional soil with positive words. And plant the seed of your heart's desire with your disciplined efforts.

When through the old oak forest I am gone,
Let me not wander in a barren dream,
But when I am consumed in the fire,
Give me new Pheonix wings to fly at my desire.

No matter how good or bad life is
WAKE up each day and be thankful for life
SOMEONE somewhere else is fighting to survive

CharmingButch25 · 09-26-2012, 04:54 PM

Dear God….

When my eyes are closed
And my head is clear
I can hear your words
Whispered in my ear

I refuse to feel worry
I set aside my troubles
I pray for peace
And my reward always doubles

You come to me
And fill my soul
You take away pain
And make me whole

Nothing else in life
Could ever fill your shoes
With the comfort you give me
I will never loose

So when the day is over
And the night has come
If I’ve put you first
In the end I’ve won

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.

~Buddha

I held a moment in my hand,
brilliant as a star,
fragile as a flower,
a tiny sliver of one hour.
I dripped it carelessly,
Ah! I didn't know, I held opportunity.

~Hazel Lee

We need a reason for speaking; we need none for keeping silent.
Pierre Nicole

Keep me away from the wisdom
which does not cry, the
philosophy which does not laugh,

not bow down before children.
