TWO ARE BETTER THAN ONE

True love is when you love the person in front of you unconditionally - even when it's uncomfortable. 

We are not together only when it's convenient. 

We are together because together we'll find it easier to overcome problems. 

We are together because 
"Two are better than one." King Solomon 

We must learn to value relationships over possessions - people are much more than things. 

It is fellowship and companionship that brings us true pleasure and enjoyment.

COUNTING MY BLESSINGS

Today is my birthday - a reminder - evidence of how blessed I am ... All that remains, is to enjoy the gift of life.

I feel blessed and fortunate  for having a supportive and loving family and for all the special and loving people in my life. 
I am grateful for all the experiences I've had in life - they helped shape the person I am pleased to be presently. 
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have touched my life, past and present; The ones I know closely, and the ones I know less, and to all the precious virtual souls, I have met through the computer screen - thanks for adding meaning and beauty to my life.

May you be blessed always  with countless joyful moments ❤️

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.

Being attentive and fully present is the greatest gift you can give someone. 

All that people truly want is to have someone care enough to listen to them. 

Kindness is a language which everyone understands - it is a bridge leading to connectedness and union. 

Be kinder than necessary - be a positive force for others.

Start the process by being kind at this very moment. 

It doesn't require special training or any specific skill. All you need to do is open your heart and be there for someone in need. 

Create your own personalized kindness movement - it can be as subtle as making yourself smile even when things aren't perfect for you - always strive to be the best that you can be.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT

Very few individuals, if any, have complete control over their lives.

We do not have to be perfect. It's ok to fail and to rise again. It is good for us to make mistakes, that's how we learn and grow. 

Everything that happens to us serves a purpose; like a magical spiral staircase leading to our ongoing evolution.  

We cannot possibly expect of ourselves or anyone else, to be "happy go lucky" 24/7.

We all have our own unique view of reality. We  must learn to adapt and make changes that will contribute to our overall well being. 

We must have faith in ourselves, it is the only way we can progress. 

We may wish to adopt the awareness that "things happen", and that it can't possibly always be easy for us. And that's ok. 

We need to remove the pressure of needing to be perfect, and instead do our best to experience as many moments of pleasure while we continue on our journey.

LIVE FOR THE MOMENTS YOU CAN'T PUT INTO WORDS

Everyday, you have a brand new chance to make things better; to feel good about yourself no matter what life brings you.  

Happiness is not just a concept, it can be real ... But you have to create it yourself. 

Here's a quick and effective pick me up that we can all do!

Write down a list of everything that is currently good in your life: your health, career, children, people in your life etc.

This is your personal GRATITUDE  list. 

Keep it with you at all times, in order to remind yourself how fortunate you are. 

When you feel discouraged or sad take a look at your list. 

This will increase your positivity and energy levels, which in turn will have you smiling 
at any given time 😃

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Wishing all mothers a joyful day, a day that is dedicated just for you, to honor and give thanks for being there for others, unconditionally.

You're always near with a tender smile, guiding those you love - like the sunshine lighting and warming their day. 

Let yourself have a worry free day, a day when you can look around with pleasure. To enjoy the fruits of your labor - the investment was worth it, you can be proud and satisfied.

Please know that no great disaster will occur, if you take a little time for yourself, to relax, to breathe, to nurture and take care of yourself, and perhaps to even dream a little ... 

Allow this to yourself from time to time, you deserve it, and not just for today! 

Wishing all you dear women, a special and a very Happy Mother's Day 🌹

THE WORLD WAS CREATED FOR ME

The world was created for the betterment of its creatures. However we cannot experience goodness unless we create it ourselves.

Man was born in the image of God
referring to the spiritual part within him.
It separates humans from animals in the world, designating them to govern as God intended. 

Part of being in the image of God says that man has the ability to make choices and decisions independently. When a person chooses evil selection it is hurting the image of God within him.

Our whole lives revolve around goals and interests - we must be able to make decisions according to comparability between whether it promotes my interests or not, otherwise there is no free choice.

When do we make changes? When what we have done so far, has not provided what we desire. 

We need to ask ourselves, how is this related to my interests?

Once I know what benefits me I can more easily strive for that purpose, and live a fulfilled life as God intended. 

Further more, when I fully realize that the world was created solely for my benefit, I will always remind myself "This is also for the best ..." No matter what life brings to me. 

I won't blame anyone, I won't complain, and I won't stay angry for long. Why?
Because the world was created for me.

HAPPY .. IS WHERE I WANT TO BE

Happy... Is Where I Want To Be
“Anyone can become angry – that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way – this is not easy.” 
- Aristotle 

It is important to experience a full range of feelings. And yes, even the unpleasant ones. 

Know how to transform the not-so-good feeling to ones that will make you feel good. In fact, that is just one of our jobs! 

It is our personal duty to watch out for our own well-being. It's not healthy for us to be in a place of anger for too long; not in any way, shape or form.

The happiest people are those who enjoy doing well for others. People who are seeking to do good for themselves only, are like those who chase butterflies - the more they pursue it, the more it seems distant and unattainable. 

The less you focus on yourself and care more for others, the happier you'll be

Simple and doable.

KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON

Keep Calm, Its Good for Your Health

Are you a mostly calm or nervous person? Are you one of those who say, "It's not that I'm irritated, it's just that people are annoying...” 

It's time to stop blaming others and instead take full responsibility for how you feel. 

You don't really believe that anyone can annoy you, do you? 

No one can make you feel anger, hurt, or nervousness unless you allow yourself to feel that feeling. 

The more humble you are, the less anger you feel – you’ll become aware that in the majority of times you have no real reason to be angry.

Concentrate on bringing out the best in others, it will keep you positive and bring out the best in you. 

Do what you really want to do - it is your soul urging you to take action, that for some reason you are stalling to do - that will surely bring peace and calmness to your heart.

After all, there is no greater agony than a dream that is within reach and has not yet been realized.

AWAKEN YOUR SOUL AND FIND YOUR PURPOSE

So What If No One Else Sees It, I See It Just Fine

Even if no one sees or believes my vision, I must see it for myself. 
I have to believe it. I need to have faith in myself. 

I have to be my own cheering crowd, or else, I won't survive.

"Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me". 

It is comforting to know you are protected even at your lowest hour.

I WILL FACE MY FEAR. 

I'm bigger than it is. It will not define me. I will take action and arrive at my destination. 
I am more than enough!

Sidestep temporary concerns and take a deeper look at the big picture. 

Why are you here? What are you doing today to bring yourself one step closer to achieving your soul's purpose?
