Because I believe......

Life continues to be a roller coaster ride but at least I go to work now and I'm busy all day - yeah such an awesome feeling compared to spending 8 hours of each day twiddling my thumbs. Mind you there's always something frustrating about not having enough hours in the day to do all the things that I want to do.

The only things that keep me travelling down the road of life is the love of my family and friends and believing in bigger and better things, dreaming the impossible and then making the impossible - possible.

Here are some things to consider - things that I believe in:

  • That even when you think you have no more to give, when a loved one cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.
  • We are more of who we are because of the connections we have made
  • Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results
  • That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
  • A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself
  • The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
  • That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
  • If you love something then set it free, if it was yours it will come back, if it doesn't come back then it wasn't yours to begin with.
  • You can't escape karma ... It is what it is. It doesn't judge, it's neither good nor bad like most people think. It's the result of all the actions, positive and negative--a constant balancing act of events--cause and effect--tit for tat--reaping and sowing--what goes around comes around ... However you phrase it, it's the same in the end.
Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail - Charles F. Kettering

  2. This is another timely post for me, Fi. I think the point that resonated most with me was actually the quote....act as if... It does amaze me how quickly I am delivered of my requests to the universe when I act (pretend/make-believe) that it's already happened. 'Act' is my key, for sure. :)

    http://www.ticklebear4u.com/2010/08/aging-and-friendship.html

    and something i wrote about love somewhere i don't want you to go so i paste it here. it is of course from MY perspective:

    LOVE,
    according to me...

    WHAT IS LOVE?

    WHEN YOU LOOK AT HIM WITH A TWINKLE IN YOUR EYES,
    BUTTERFLIES IN YOUR STOMACH AND A FIRE IN YOUR LOINS?

    THAT'S LUST.

    WHEN HE COMES TO CONFIDE IN YOU
    HIS DREAMS, HIS FEARS AND SORROWS,
    KNOWING YOU WON'T BEAR JUDGEMENT
    AND KEEP IT ALL TO YOURSELF?

    THAT'S CALLED TRUST.

    WHEN YOU THINK OF HIM,
    MAKING HIM PART OF YOUR REALITY,
    SHARING INTO EVERYTHING?

    THAT'S PARTNERSHIP.

    WHEN YOU DREAM OF HIM DAY AND NIGHT?

    THAT'S PASSION.

    WHEN YOU WOULD RATHER BE WITH HIM
    THAN WASTE YOUR TIME ON POINTLESS ADVENTURES?

    THAT'S INTEGRITY.

    WHEN YOU WANT TO GIVE HIM ALL THE BEST OF YOURSELF,
    TO MAKE HIM FEEL LOVED AND APPRECIATED?

    THAT'S SELFLESSNESS.

    WHEN YOU VALUE HIS IDEAS AND OPINIONS AS MUCH AS YOUR OWN?

    THAT'S RESPECT.

    WHAT IS LOVE THEN?

    THAT'S WHEN YOU HAVE ALL OF THE ABOVE.

    WHAT IS THE PERFECT LOVE?

    THAT'S WHEN YOU HAVE ALL OF THE ABOVE, AND THAT IT IS MUTUAL.

    :)~
