Believe in yourself, set your goal high, have faith in your abilities, and that you can do it.

Faith means living with uncertainty - feeling your way through life, letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.

This is how human brain changes when the status changed. Only few remember what life was before, and who’s always been there even in the most painful situations.


Life Is A Gift


Today before you think of saying an unkind word–
think of someone who can’t speak.


Before you complain about the taste of your food–
think of someone who has nothing to eat.


Before you complain about your husband or wife–
think of someone who is crying out to God for a companion.


Today before you complain about life–
think of someone who went too early to heaven.


Before you complain about your children–
think of someone who desires children but they’re barren.


Before you argue about your dirty house, someone didn’t clean or sweep–
think of the people who are living in the streets.


Before whining about the distance you drive–
think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.


And when you are tired and complain about your job–
think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.


But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another–
remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker.


And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down–
put a smile on your face and thank God you’re alive and still around.


Life is a gift – Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, and Fulfill it.

How did it happen that their lips came together? How does it happen that birds sing, that snow melts, that the rose unfolds, that the dawn whitens behind the stark shapes of trees on the quivering summit of the hill? A kiss, and all was said.

The hardest of all is learning to be a well of affection, and not a fountain; to show them we love them not when we feel like it, but when they do.

We all can fly high in our career only if we unshackle our willpower kept as bird in the cage built with our imaginary limitations.

If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Go Over, Go Under, Go Around, or Go Through, but Never Give Up.

We don't create a fantasy world to escape reality. We create it to be able to stay.

Life is like a camera focus on what's important capture the good times develop from the negatives and if things don't work out take another shot

Two things help success in life -
The way you manage when you have nothing and the way you behave when you have everything.

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
