Looking on the Bright Side
-
Here are a few quotes I came across in an old issue of Family Circle (Jan 2002's to be precise!
) that I'd like to share with all of you!
Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
A mistake is simply another way of doing things. - Katherine Graham
Never fear shadows. They simply mean there's a light shining somewhere nearby. - Ruth E Renkel
Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labour does the body. - Seneca
In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity. - Albert Einstein
You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you. - Mary Tyler Moore
Problems are opportunities in work clothes. - Henry Kaiser
The next best thing to winning is losing! And at least you've been in the race. - Nellie Hershey Tullis
Keep looking up!

Blessings for a New Year!
WHAT MUST I DO?
God knows my situation
I am but one,
but I am one.
I cannot do everything,
but I can do something.
- Bishop Barbara Clementine Hams
GOD ALONE SUFFICES
Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing dismay you.
All things pass.
God never changes.
Patience attains
all that it strives for.
Those who have God
find they lack nothing.
God alone suffices.
- Teresa of Avila
UNEXPECTED BLESSINGS
Give thanks
For unknown blessings
Already on their way.
- Native American Prayer
BE WHO YOU ARE
Be who you are,
And may you be blessed
in all that you are.
- Adapted from a prayer by Marcia Falk
BLESSED ARE YOU
Blessed
are you
woman of strength
wrapped around
order and chaos
holding firm
tension's pieces
forging new dreams
and promised tomorrows.
- Adapted from a prayer by margaret Cessna, H.M.
GIVE THANKS FOR EVERYTHING
Give thanks for everything you have.
For everything you receive,
And for everything you are going to receive.
Never cease to give thanks,
For this positive attitude towards life -
The very act of giving thanks -
Draws the best out of you,
Helps to keep your heart and mind open,
Helps to keep your awareness expanding.
The more blessings you count,
The more they increase.
- Adapted from a poem by Eileen Caddy -
Too bright, usually i turn to the dark side
-
Thanks for sharing all these quotes with us! Very uplifting
-
for every silver lining, is a dark cloud of despair
but with that cloud, comes rain.. and with rain, there is moisture, growth, and life.. -
There is no failure, just did not succeed, try again!!
If you want the raindow, u must first learn to put up with the rain. -
bright side.. seriously! and it'll give you a new view on life!
"If at first, you don't succeed, try try again...
After a while, GIVE UP! No use being a damned fool about it!"
stop wasting your time if you cannot do it.. go do something else more productive and meaningful...
coz remember.. Nothing is impossible.. for the one who does not have to do it!
sounds negative but these are the best pieces of advise i can give to a lot of people out there.. these things will guide you to more productive goals in life... -
AMEN AMEN PRAISE THE LORD, THANK YOU JESUS FOR YOUR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE FOR US, THANKS ABBA.

If there is no bright side to look on, then atleast hope and look forward that there will be some bright side sooner or later.
