We may not always realise...

We may not always realize
That every thing we do,
Affects not only our lives
But touches others, too!

For a little bit of thoughtfulness
That shows someone you care,
Creates a ray of sunshine
For both of you to share.

Yes, every time you offer
Someone a helping hand ...
Every time you show a friend
You care and understand ...

Every time you have
A kind and gentle word to give ...
You help someone find beauty
In this precious life we live.

For happiness brings happiness
And loving ways bring love;
And Giving is the treasure
That contentment is made of.

Thank you for all the love
you have shown me...

Life is a Miracle

Life is a miracle
don't let it slip away,
Open your heart to others
give of yourself each day.

See the beauty in everyone
regardless of where they've been,
Some have a difficult journey
and really need a friend.

Share your gifts and talents
listen with your heart.
Do the things you dream about
but don't have time to start.

Pick a bouquet of flowers
show someone that you care,
Be gracious and forgiving
life is never fair.

Hold on to your courage
you may need it down the road,
We all have a cross to bear
it could be a heavy load.

If you practice all these things
no matter where you roam,
You may find both sun and rain
but you'll never feel alone!
Thank You for
Always Being There!

All that really matters

Life is too short for grievances,
For quarrels and for tears,
What's the use of wasting
Precious days and precious tears.

If there's something to forgive,
Forgive without delay
Maybe you too, were part to blame,
So make it up today.

Be generous, forget the past
And take the broader view,
Cast away all bitterness and
Let the sunshine through.

If it's within your power
A broken heart to mend,

Remember
Love is all that really
matters in the end.

One day at a time

YESTERDAY, TOMORROW AND TODAY
There are two days in every week about which we should not worry. Two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.

One of these days is yesterday with its mistakes and cares, Its faults and blunders, Its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a single act we performed. We cannot erase a single word we said. Yesterday is gone.

The other day we should not worry about is tomorrow. With its possible adversities, Its burdens, Its large promise and poor performance. Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control. Tomorrow’s Sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise. Until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unborn.

This just leaves only one day... Today. Any person can fight the battles of just one day. It is only when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternity’s - yesterday and tomorrow that we break down. It is not the experience of today that drives people mad. It is the remorse of bitterness for something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring.

Let us therefore live but one day at a time.

The size of your heart

It isn't the size of your house as such
That matters so much at all.
It's the gentle hand and its loving touch,
That make it great or small.

The friends who come and the hour they
Who out of your house depart,
Will judge it not by the style you show,
But rather by the size of your heart.

It isn't the size of your head so much,
It isn't the wealth you found.
That will make you happy -- it's how you touch
The lives that are all around.

For making money is not hard --
To live life well is an art:
How people love you, how they regard,
Is all in the size of your heart.
You have truly
touched my life.

Life without friendship

Life without friendship....
is like a rose without rain.

Life without friendship....
just wouldn't be the same.
Life without friendship....
is like a ship without a sea.

Life without friendship....
just could not be
without a friend like you for me.

Remind me my God

REMIND ME, GOD
When I am lonely and
Perhaps I feel despair,
Let not my ailing heart forget
That YOU hear every prayer...

Remind me that no matter what
I do or fail to do,
There still is hope for as long
as I have FAITH in YOU...

Let not my eyes be blinded by
Some folly I commit,
But help me to regret my wrong
And make amends for it.

Inspire me to put my fears
Upon a hidden shelf,
And in the future try not to
Feel sorry for myself.

Give me the restful sleep I need
Before another dawn,
And bless me in the morning with
THE COURAGE TO GO ON.
