ONENESS

If we are ALL "ONE" why do we continue to find ways to separate ourselves from each other.  black, white, jew, christian, leftie, rightie, blond, brunette.  Aren't we all "human?"


"All people are a single nation." --Qur'an

DREAM

"Man alone has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man alone can dream and make his dreams come true." --Napolean Hill.

"If you can dream it, you can do it." --Walt Disney

"You see things and you say, "'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, 'Why not?'"  --George Bernard Shaw



"Keep your dreams alive.  Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication.  Remember all things are possible for those who believe."  --Gail Devers.

"Let go of the past and go for the future. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you imagined." --Henry David Thoreau

"So many of our dreams at first seems impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable." -- Christopher Reeve



"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world." --Harriet Tubman

NEVER GIVE UP!



"If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit." --Bill Clinton

"Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail" --Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen."  --Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

IMAGINATION

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create." --Albert Einstein

‎"Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.” --George Bernard Shaw

"All the breaks you need in life wait within your imagination. Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of turning mind energy into accomplishment and wealth." --Napoleon Hill

KINDNESS

Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty


Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he/she sees all day.


It's a Wonderful Life...do you let the people who touch your life in positive ways know?


Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.- Leo Buscaglia


Why do we have such ease with giving criticism or passing judgment but such difficulty with giving praise?


"When we wish and seek to help others, our attitude is more positive and relationships become easier. We are less afraid and have less anxiety. Otherwise we remain shy and hesitant, and feel the need to take a thousand precautions before we approach people. When our intentions are good, we have greater self-confidence and are stronger. This is how we learn to understand how precious and valuable kindness is."  --Dalai Lama


"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being."  --Goethe

"You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late." --Ralph Waldo Emerson

THOUGHTS

"Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your habits. Your habits become your values. Your values become your destiny."
--Gandhi

Our beliefs create our thoughts. Our thoughts create our actions. What are your beliefs? Do they foster growth? positivity? health? strength? Do they foster a life filled with joy and happiness? Do they help others? The beliefs you create, support and maintain and the thoughts that ensue will either strengthen you and the world around you or diminish you and those around you. Choose the positive!

"You need to learn how to select your thoughts just the same way you select your clothes every day. This is a power you can cultivate. If you want to control things in your life so bad, work on the mind. That's the only thing you should be trying to control." — Elizabeth Gilbert

"Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true." --Napoleon Hill

‎"Tell yourself frequently 'I will only react to constructive suggestions.' This gives you positive ammunition against your own negative thoughts and those of others." ---Jane Roberts

"Watch your thoughts; they become words.
 Watch your words; they become actions.
 Watch your actions; they become habits.
 Watch your habits; they become character.
 Watch your character; it becomes your destiny." --Lao-Tze

"Don't take anything personally. Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves." --Don Miguel Ruiz
