TREASURE YOUR FRIENDS
Life is a fast lane. Every now and then you will meet new faces and new friends.
But are you such a kind of person who cherishes friendship? If you ask me the same question, my answer is yes of course.
Having a circle of friends is like having a family too. They are there in times of joy and sorrow. A true friend is when she/he is in your side no matter what the world brings.
A person who will give you positive advice and outlook in life.
If you have friends, don't let the time pass by without saying hello personally or through emails.
Inform them that you are still there even if you are time apart.
Even if you are thousands of miles apart. The world now is getting smaller everyday because of the Internet.
Take sometime to send cards through email and you will also be remembered. My friend has contacted me lately because I never forget to sent forward emails to him to read. Don't lose any friends, they might help building your business someday!!!!

A successful Relationship...
A boy was born to a couple after 11 years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked his wife To cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and fascinated by its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died.
The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words.
QUESTIONS: 1. What were the four words?
2. What is the implication of this story?
ANSWER:
The husband just said, "I Love You Darling."
The husband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened.
No one is to be blamed. She had lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband that is what he gave her.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiving attitude,selfishness, and fears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

The Best We Can Be [honoring our children]
Everything we do and say in the presence of our children makes an impression on them. We may think we can get away with swearing or gossiping in front of them when they can’t talk, but we have forgotten that just because they can’t talk doesn’t mean they don’t hear. They are sensitive sponges absorbing their environment in ways we will never know. Even if the words don’t make sense to them, they make an impression, as does the energy behind the words. We honor our children when we acknowledge that they are fully present from the very beginning and when we offer ourselves to them in ways that model the best of what humans can be.
When we bring a child into the world, a great welling up of love and hope fills our hearts. We unequivocally want the very best for our children, and we want to be the best parents a child could ever want. We begin to see ourselves and our lives in a different light, and things that seemed okay before we had a child suddenly reveal themselves as problematical. This can lead to a somewhat mincing review of our habits of speech, thought and feeling, our relationships, and our physical habits. We may feel that we have put ourselves under a microscope, which can be stressful. However, it can also lead to a great healing of our own unresolved issues and, in turn, it enables us to be good parents to our children. Talking to other conscious parents about this life transformation can be very helpful.
Our desire to become the best we can be is often strongest at the very beginning of a child’s life and sometimes loses its intensity as we grow accustomed to their presence. However, it is never too late to look at ourselves and notice whether we are offering our best to our children. That original welling up of love and hope can inspire us throughout our lives to be the best we can be.
What do you think?

He'll come some day...One day..!
Someday he'll come along
the man i love
and he'll be big and strong
the man i love
and when he comes my way
i'll do my best to make him stay
he'll look at me and smile
i'll understand
then in a little while
he'll take my hand
and though it seems absurd
i know we both won't say a word
maybe i shall meet him sunday
maybe monday, maybe not
still i'm sure to meet him one day
maybe tuesday will be my good news day
he'll build a little home
that's meant for two
from which i'll never roam
who would, would you
and so all else above
i'm dreaming of the man i love
the man i love
and he'll be big and strong
the man i love
and when he comes my way
i'll do my best to make him stay
he'll look at me and smile
i'll understand
then in a little while
he'll take my hand
and though it seems absurd
i know we both won't say a word
maybe i shall meet him sunday
maybe monday, maybe not
still i'm sure to meet him one day
maybe tuesday will be my good news day
he'll build a little home
that's meant for two
from which i'll never roam
who would, would you
and so all else above
i'm dreaming of the man i love

You'll say "don't fear your dreams"
You'll say "don't fear your dreams"
It's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall
from hopes so high
But never is a promise
and you can't afford to lie
You'll never live this life that
I liveI'll never live the life
that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message I give
You'll say it looks as though
I might give up this fight
But as the scenery grows
I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate
in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch
I see from greater heights
I realize what I am now
too smart to mention, to you
You'll say you understand
You'll never understand
I'll say I'll never wake up
knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in
You don't know who I am
You'll say I need appeasing
when I start to cry
But never is a promise
and I'll never need a lie !

All I Want to do....
And it is so strange
With these eyes
out into darkness
And it is so strange
All they want to do
is sleep
And it is so strange
They want to sleep
through silence
And it is so strange
'Cause I am wide awake
And it is so strange
How all this
could be over
If you would walk in
If you put me to rest
And it is so strange
That my voice
seems to've gone quiet
And even stranger still
That I never will be found
All I want to do
Is to drift away
Hush-a-bye baby
All I want to do is
go to sleep
To sleep, to sleep

LOVE....
“Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot ,
who calls you back when you hang up on him ,
who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat
or will stay awake just to watch you sleep...
wait for the boy who kisses your fore-head,
who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats..;
holds your hand in front of his friends ,
who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on.
One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares..
and how lucky he is to have you....
The one who turns to his friends and says, 'that's her.'”
Ahhh.....if only...if only..there were real men likes these,
who existed...!
Unfortunately you can just imagine and dream...
And they exist only in your mind...!

I WISH I COULD HAVE LOVED YOU MORE!
When you wish upon a star,
makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you
If your heart is in your dreams
no request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star as dreamers do
Fate is kind,
she brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue,
fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star,
your dreams come true

Understanding...
MARRIAGE
“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person”
Marriage statistics are disheartening to look at. Half of marriages end in divorce.
It's a fact, but it isn't the full reality. The statistics don't even take "seperations" into account.
A lot of people are legally married and yet no longer together.
It just costs too much money for the lawyer fees and they don't want to deal with the hassle.
So MORE than half of marriages fail.
Yet people are getting married every day even though the odds are clearly against them succeeding.
Why is that?
I guess it's for the same reason my husband I got married.
We want to believe that we're going to be the small percentage bracket that makes it to the end.
The old couple on the park bench holding hands and gazing into eachother's sagging watery eyes still with the love and passion that we feel today.
I looked forward to growing old with my hubby!
Thats why chose these dolls for the picture;
Its hard to ignore how they both look a little afraid and uneasy!
"Dreams of Loneliness
Like a heartbeat ..
drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost ...
what you had ...
what you lost..."
-Dreams
When I woke up this morning, I didn't want to get out of bed.
It was just a heavy feeling of sadness that pushed my body deeper into the sheets.
It all felt pointless all of a sudden.
What's the use in fighting?
I should have known it would have ended up this way.
No one ever said life was "Fair"?
Why do we keep believing that it could be?
I rolled over in the bed, hugged my pillow and just drifted back into sleep.
