Family

When we Close our eyes and picture Family comes, Family's love is life's greatest blessing.

You know the old saying, "you can't choose your family".   Even when we migrate from one place to another, we carry our family values with us.   In fact, our family is responsible for our identity. Remember, the world knows you by your actions and not by your intentions.   Whatever   we  have  learned  from our family  over the years  serves as a   basic premise for our actions in life. As such, individuals with extended family enjoy more benefits over a person who decides to lead a solo life.   A person  with a  family receives an  emotional edge, which often results into his success in life.I have really captured the many hues of life .

The family unit is an important part of our growth and development. Sometimes the definition of family is not always cut and dry. For many of us, our friends serve as our closet relations, becoming every bit as important to us as any bond formed by blood ties.

Whether you're estranged from your loved ones, or you just can't get enough of them, here you will find an assemblage of thoughts that will really hit home.

They may be exasperating at times, but you are lucky to have them. Let them know just how you feel with these poignant words of love. During hard times, everyone in the family including you benefit due to the extended relationship, especially during events such as death, accident and so on. Also, the joy associated with success or any other happy moment magnifies when our family is around. Everyone out there is able to reap the benefits of one person’s success, whether it’s your birthday, a new business venture or any other milestone in life.

While technology has certainly helped families stay in close contact with each other, can it replace the feeling that one receives after hugging his/her child or can it serve as an ideal  Whatever the case may be, the significance of family is incalculable!

Thank you and Sorry

hey all I feel Thank you and Sorry can make a relationship bond stronger and Its a sign of kindness and mannerism. do u all agree?????

Thanks means Appreciating somebody work or someone. then true smile comes on the faces its like hundred million smile.   Sorry is like forgiving some one Forgiveness is to release from hard feelings, yes, but it is also to release from revenge and to help them overcome their sins! 

The weak can never forgive.   Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong  .Apologizing does not always mean that you are wrong and the other person is right.   It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.   Thanking Someone is a gesture of gratitude, With a simple hand gesture in sign language, you can easily convey your "thanks" to those who are serving without stumbling around for words, feeling awkward or getting tearful.  Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind.

kindness

kindness is the act or the state of being kind, being marked by good and charitable behavior, pleasant disposition, and concern for others. It is known as a virtue, and recognized as a value in many cultures and religions . Knowing the meaning of kindness is good. Better still is experiencing how to be happy by sowing seeds of kindness through doing small acts of kindness daily. Kindness then soon blossoms into love.

• Look your partner in the eye and smile at him or her in a kindly way.



• At a checkout till smile at the cashier, and thank them for the job they're doing.



• In a public washroom, smile at the cleaner and thank him or her for keeping the place so clean and fresh for everyone. Perhaps even give a tip if that would be appropriate in your society.



• Offer to help a family member carry their shopping bags into the house.



• In the home, offer to do something that another member of the family usually does - just to give them a break from it. It could be washing the dishes, taking out the refuse, making the bed, locking the garage door or any of the typical household activities that are part of life.



• When you next make a phonecall to a stranger, deliberately and consciously be friendly to the person at the other end, without being gushy or syrupy. Just be nice, recognising them as another human being who also wants to be happy.



• Extend the practice beyond human beings too: to pets and plants. See if you feel good inside.

Hope

Hope keeps something alive in us even when the evidence to a particular circumstance says otherwise.

It is a spiritual grace and is distinct from positive thinking, which refers to a psychological process for reversing pessimism.

Your Creator knows your struggles, your pain, and your needs.
You will never be forgotten or abandoned.

Forget those things that are behind you and pursue the things that are ahead of you.
You have a purpose and calling on your life, you are one of a kind and loved 

Try to be patient; it is never over until your Creator says it is over.
You have a divine destiny and no forces on Earth or in Hell can take that from you.

the creature of universe

Even after hearing "no" time after time, or not hearing anything at all, do not give up. The right people are in your path and you will meet them when it is time, timing is everything.

One day you will look back and see how all the pieces fit together, the dots will connect, the good choices and the bad choices that we made, and then you will understand that everything happened for a reason.

When I feel that pang of regret, I have to remember and know that there was a reason it did not work out the way I wanted, what do they say about not getting what we want?
"Experience is what you get, when you don't get what you want." 

hope can do what the natural cannot, people and circumstances change, and miracles still happen. You can follow the Light of the world and not live in darkness, but you have to believe it in your soul, not just your mind.

When you feel that all your strength is gone, when you have prayed and cannot pray any longer, when discouragement and despair seem to overwhelm you, it does not matter how long it has been, our Creator can turn it around. 

When the world says, "Give up,"
Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."

life is music

Living is music
Your actions daily
compose the notes
Your actions daily
Write the lyrics
Of the song

In living,
Your life
Is part of the melody
For others to hear
And sing along

We each are one
Of the poets in life
We each always
Are part of the song

As common as water
From the front yard tap
As unique as each babes
First breath
Be noble
Your soul
Is made of stardust
Be humble
Your body
Is made of Earth
Be good, do good
Wonder
Be curious
Be inquisitive
Never, never judge

If you can’t yet
Write a few
Of the answers in life
Be the one
Who asks the questions

LEARNING

LEARNING


I want to talk about learning. But not the lifeless, sterile, futile, quickly forgotten stuff that is crammed in to the mind of the poor helpless individual tied into his seat by ironclad bonds  of conformity! I am talking about LEARNING - the insatiable curiosity that drives the adolescent boy to absorb everything he can see or hear or read about gasoline engines in order to improve the efficiency and speed of his 'cruiser'. I am talking about the student who says, "I am discovering, drawing in from the outside, and making that which is drawn in a real part of me." I am talking about any learning in which the experience of the learner progresses along this line: "No, no, that's not what I want"; "Wait! This is closer to what I am interested in, what I need"; "Ah, here it is! Now I'm grasping and comprehending what I need and what I want to know!"
Learning as a quantitative increase in knowledge. Learning is acquiring information .Learning as memorising. Learning is storing information that can be reproduced as acquiring facts, skills, and methods that can be retained and used as necessary.Learning as interpreting and understanding reality in a different way.A man knowing little or nothing of medical science could not be a good surgeon, but excellence at surgery is not the same thing as knowledge of medical science; not is it a simple product of it. The surgeon must indeed have learned from instruction, or by his own inductions and observations, a great number of truths; but he must also have learned by practice a great number of aptitudes.Learning how or improving an ability is not like learning that or acquiring information. Truths can be imparted, procedures can only be inculcated, and while inculcation is a gradual process, imparting is relatively sudden.

Strengths

                                Strengths

Each of us possess certain strengths and weaknesses and these often shape and may even dictate how we attack and approach life. And for many of us, knowing what we're best at and worst at doesn't necessarily come easily amid living up to what others expect of us in life, socially, professionally and peer-wise. In doing what others expect of us, we can sometimes overlook this important self-knowledge and not make the most of our talents. Job interviewers ask this question as a test of how well you will fit into their organization; you need to ask it of yourself to know how well you know yourself and whether you're living up to your full potential.Strengths are considered to be the talents, innate abilities and desires that "click" for you. In other words, these are the things that you'd be tempted to say "It wasn't effort, I've always had the ability to ...". Strengths should not be confused with skills, which can be learned or improved (for example, confidence and assertiveness are skills). Although self examination can lead you to a few answers, getting an outside opinion will help you either solidify your observations or can shatter a few illusions too.

Choose someone who will give you the truth and not sugarcoat or gloss over your weaknesses. If mom always tells you that you are the best in everything you do (when you know full well that you are not) kindly decline mom’s offer to be your feedback person. However, if your sister picks on everything you do, she’s not a good candidate either. Find an external, neutral person, preferably a peer or a mentor, to give you honest feedback.
