“Love is patient; love is kind and envies no one. Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude; never selfish, not quick to take offense. There is nothing love cannot face; there is no limit to its faith, its hope, and endurance. In a word, there are three things that last forever: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of them all is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:4
How people treat you is their karma; How you react is yours.
When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself. Wayne Dyer
Keep your thoughts positive because they become your words Keep your words positive because they become your behavior Keep your behavior positive because they become your habits Keep your habits positive because they become your values Keep your values positive because they become your destiny --Mahatma Ghandi
Have patience with all things, but first of all with yourself. --St. Francis de Sales
Do everything with a mind that lets go. do not expect any praise or reward. If you let go a little, you will have a little peace. If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace. if you let go completely, you will know complete peace and freedom. Your struggles with the world will have come to an end. --Achaan Chah (quoted in “A Grateful Heart” by M.J. Ryan)
If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude. --Maya Angelou
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. --Anonymous
Humility does not mean you think less of yourself. It means you think of yourself less. --Ken Blanchard
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
When I stand up for
myself and my beliefs, some call me a
bitch.
When I stand up for
those I love, some may call me a
bitch or probably more.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my own way, they may call me whatever as well.
Being this way apparently means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life my way preferably to please God and to help others in need without the greed.
I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to
tolerate injustice and
speak against it, I may be
defined as a bitch.
The same thing happens when I take some time for
myself instead of being everyone's maid.
It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I 'should' be. I am honest, outspoken and determined not to let the cruel nature of the world today take me down. So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of strength I hold within me.
You won't succeed.
And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I will embrace the title and
be proud to bear it.
The way to happiness: keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little, give much. Fill your life with love. Scatter sunshine. Forget self, think of others. Do as you would be done by. Try this for a week and you will be surprised.
