If you think you are unhappy, look at them If you think your salary is low, how about her? If you think you don't have many friends... If you think study is a burden, how about her? When you feel like giving up, think of this man If you think you suffer in life, do you suffer as much as he does If you complain about your transport system, how about them? If your society is unfair to you, how about her? Enjoy life how it is and as it comes Things are worse for others and is a lot better for us _________________________ FORWARDED by Babyruth Villarama 08 August 2008

I feared being alone Until I learned to like Myself. I feared failure Until I realized that I only Fail when I don't try. I feared success Until I realized that I had to try in order to be happy with myself. I feared people's opinions Until I learned that people would have opinions about me anyway. I feared rejection Until I learned to have faith in myself. I feared pain Until I learned that it's necessary for growth I feared the truth Until I saw the ugliness in lies. I feared life Until I experienced its beauty. I feared death Until I realized that it's not an end, but a beginning. I feared my destiny Until I realized that I had the power to change my life.

I feared ridicule Until I learned how to laugh at myself. I feared growing old Until I realized that I gained wisdom every day. I feared the future Until I r

Friendship Note for Valentines Day

You might be best friends one year... Pretty good friends the next year... Don't talk that often the next year... And don't want to talk at all the year after that. So, I just wanted to say, You are special to me and you have made a difference in my life. I look up to you, respect you, and truly cherish you. You can also send this to all your friends... No matter how often you talk... Or how close you are... And send you can also send this back to the person who sent it to you. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them... And tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend. Someday you might feel like you have NO FRIENDS at all Just remember this and take comfort in knowing... that somebody out there cares about you.... _________________ FORWARDED by DIGIE SALAMAT Today

Freedom of Simplicity

Freedom of Simplicity By Bo Sanchez Happiness is not found outside of you. It doesn ' t come from cars,clothes,cash, or Caribbean cruises. Happiness is found within. But how can you find it if you don't have the simplicity of time and space to discover the most important things in your life? How can you search the depths of your soul if you are too busyimpressing others, acquiring wealth, protecting your properties, and paying your debts? Simplicity is not about the external either: living in a doghouse,eating in Hepatitis joints, wearing rags. Let me define what it is: Simplicity is living from the core of your being. A TREASURE MAP OF HAPPINESSSimplicity will point to you where and what and who the gold is in your life. Let me share with you the seven powerful lessons I've learned on simple living: 1. LIVE ON LESS, AND DELIGHT IN THEM MORE Some take their pleasure dining in classy restaurants, trips to Europe ,and owning the latest home theatre-equipment. I ' ve chose

Sweet - Marble

A Short Story… A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her. The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed. The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised. That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn't sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble. Moral of the story: If you don't give your hundred percent in a relationship, you'll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent.. This is applicable for any relationship like love, friends, employer-employee relationship etc., Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully :) ________________________________ FORWARDED by CAROLINA CARREON Date: 05 February 2009

W o W: Warren Buffet

"We begin this New Year with dampened enthusiasm and dented optimism. Our happiness is diluted and our peace is threatened by the financial illness that has infected our families, organizations and nations. Everyone is desperate to find a remedy that will cure their financial illness and help them recover their financial health. They expect the financial experts to provide them with remedies, forgetting the fact that it is these experts who created this financial mess. Every new year, I adopt a couple of old maxims as my beacons to guide my future. This self-prescribed therapy has ensured that with each passing year, I grow wiser and not older. This year, I invite you to tap into the financial wisdom of our elders along with me, and become financially wiser. Hard work : All hard work brings profit; but mere talk leads only to poverty. Laziness: A sleeping lobster is carried away by the water current. Earnings: Never depend on a single source of income. Spending: If
