In life …. not every day is a good day … but, live anyway…
not every body you love will love you back … but,
love anyway …
not everyone will tell you the truth … but, be honest anyway …
not every deal in your life is fair … but, play fair anyway …
deal with life the way you deal with a camera … focus on what is important … capture the good times … crop unwanted people out and develop from the negatives…
keep the memories of good things, and make new better ones … make them worthwhile, make them meaningful, significant and colorful … because … that’s what makes things memorable … learn from your hard moments … nothing ever goes away until it teaches us what we need to know about the reality of life …
your life is a story … it is the story written, the story read, the story seen, the story felt and the story heard of the humanity …. make it significant and make it powerful …

'' When your world moves too fast ... and you lose yourself in the chaos ... introduce yourself to each color of the sunrise and to each color of the sunset ...
Reacquaint yourself with the earth beneath your feet … thank the air that surrounds you with every breath you take, find yourself in the appreciation of life … Release and detach from every person, every situation, and every condition that no longer serves a divine purpose in your life … All things have a season, and all seasons must come to an end … chose a new season filled with purposeful thoughts and activities … surround yourself with the dreamers, and the doers, and the believers, and the thinkers, and those who see greatness within you, even when you don’t see it yourself … if you ever find yourself in a different situation than this … leave … and start somewhere else … ”
In the blink of an eye …
It’s going by so quickly …
'' We are so busy watching out for what's just ahead of us that we don't take time to enjoy where we are ...''
(Calvin & Hobbes)
Life is like a book, don’t jump to the end to see if it is worth it … just enjoy life and fill the pages with beautiful and amazing memories… life is too short.. it is too short to hold grudges… it is too short to lose friendship … it is too short to hide who you are … it is too short to live with regrets .. it is too short to be scared … it is too short to shed tears .. it is too short to waste time … it is too short to look for what is lost … and it is going by too fast … to enjoy life, enjoy your moment …
Do not run through life so you forget, not only where you have been, but also where you are going… Life is not a race … it’s a journey to be savored each step of the way,
Every struggle in your life has shaped you into the person you are today … Be thankful for the hard times, they can only make you stronger…

The Starfish Story
An old man was walking on the beach one morning after the storm. In the distance, he could see someone moving like a dancer. As he came closer, he saw a young woman picking up starfish and gently throwing them back into the ocean.
” Young lady, why are you throwing starfish into the ocean?”
”The sun is up, and the tide is going out, and if I do not throw them in they will die,” she said.
” But young lady, do you not realize that there are many miles of beach and thousands of starfish?
”You cannot possibly make a difference.”
The young woman listened politely, then bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean.
” It made a difference for that one”

It will be shining somewhere …
Life is a book full of chapters, some are sad and some are happy, and some are a mixture of both but exciting … making no mistake of it, if you don’t turn the page you will never know what the next chapter holds and hides …
When it comes the time to let go, we hesitate to take the decision to let go, we wish that true moment to disappear, because it takes all the memories away and leaves us empty inside, we always think there is no space for new memories, for new people, for new love, and new stories, we strive to protect the legacy we already have …
Believe me … when it is due, it’s better to let go … let go of the things that hold you back and disturb your inner peace, replace … there is always a place for new replacements, there is a place for new achievements and new discoveries, for new people and new stories, for new ways and new destinations, there are always new miles ahead to take in your journey …

When you look back never regret things you did wrong, and never regret things you did right even for the wrong people …
Your daily schedule ahead should everyday include a significant smile … every little smile matters
New opportunities are hidden in every day to help you explore your unlimited potential, love and accept what you see in the mirror, and if you get a chance, take it, if it is to change your life let it … Rise above the little things and Embrace simplicity … Give the present of your presence to people who deserve it, and don’t keep wiping your tears, instead … wipe away people who make you cry … celebrate every moment and make it the best …
