Allow Your Own Inner Light to Guide You

There comes a time when you must stand alone.

You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your

own dreams.

You must be willing to make sacrifices.

You must be capable of changing and rearranging your

priorities so that your final goal can be achieved.

Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged.

There are times when you must take a few extra chances
and create your own realities.

Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better.

Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise

just to get by.

Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to

grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.

Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight

that should lead the way.

Work hard at what you like to do and try to overcome all obstacles

Laugh at your mistakes and praise yourself for learning from them

Pick some flowers and appreciate the beauty of nature

Say hello to strangers and enjoy the people you know

Don't be afraid to show your emotions laughing and crying make you feel better

Love your friends and family with your entire being they are the most important part
of your life

Feel the calmness on a quiet sunny day

 Find a rainbow and live your world of dreams always remember life is better than it
seems

 
BE THANKFUL

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire. If you did, what
would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something, for it gives you the opportunity to
learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations, because they give you opportunities for
improvement.

Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary, because it means you've made a
difference.

It's easy to be thankful for the good things.

A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.

Find a way to be thankful for your troubles, and they can

become your blessings.

Appreciating Our Past

It is easy to be negative about past mistakes and unhappiness. But it is much more
healing to look at ourselves and our past in the light of experience, acceptance, and
growth.

Our past is a series of lessons that advance us to higher levels of living and loving.
The relationships we entered, stayed in, or ended taught us necessary lessons.

Some of us have emerged from the most painful circumstances with strong insights
about who we are and what we want. Our mistakes? Necessary. Our frustrations,
failures, and sometimes stumbling attempts at growth and progress? Necessary too.
Each step of the way, we learned. We went through exactly the experiences we need
to, to become who we are today. Each step of the way, we progressed. Is our past a
mistake? No. The only mistake we can make is mistaking that for the truth.

Today, God, help me let go of negative thoughts I may be harboring about my past
circumstances or relationships. I can accept, with gratitude, all that has brought me
to today.

A Lesson in Life

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or

bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all
occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events,
illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to
nowhere. 

If someone hurts you, betrays you , or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they
have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you
open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love
you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to
things you would have never seen or felt without them.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that
you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head
up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual
and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in
you either.

You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out
and live it.
