What is Love?
Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, Never boastful
or proud, Never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its
own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and
will hardly even notice when others do it wrong. It is never glad
about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out. If you love
someone you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost. You will
always believe in him, always expect the best of him and always stand
your ground in defending him. All the special gifts and powers from
God will some day come to an end but love goes on forever. Of all
the gifts, the greatest is love.
Living up to your Potential
Because we fear we're inadequate, and because our expectations or
ourselves are inflated along with our assumptions about others'
expectations of us, we live in the realm of pretense. However, the
truth of existence is that we're exactly who we need to be.. None
of us is inadequate, yet all of us fall short of being perfect.
Our journeys are designed to introduce us to new information, new
possibilities for growth and development. We must trust that we
are at the right place, at the right time, with all preparation
we need to succeed, here and now. Fretting takes our focus away
from the moment and the rich invitation for personal involvement
that 's extending. Remember, it's through the full interaction with
the present that we are nurtured emotionally and spiritually and
encouraged to attain our full potential. Today I will remember that
I am all I need to be.
I've Learned
~ Either you control your attitude or it controls you.
~ Heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it
needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
~ Money is a lousy way of keeping score.
~ My best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best
time.
~ Sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will
be the ones to help you get back up.
~ Sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that
doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
~ True friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
