"INSPIRATION"
"I've learned not to hate, not to blame, not to envy and not to criticize but to appreciate what god has in store for me. "

I've personally experienced it and now it turns my life to an enjoying and pleasuring one.
"When we serve others, we serve ourselves. Do not think, I will help others - think rather, I will help my own, my world, because I cannot otherwise be happy."

"When you speak from your heart, and say the words your soul has only dared to whisper, that's when miracles happen."

"Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths, or the turning inwards in prayer for five short minutes."

"God can only be of service to me and I to him, not in the past, nor in the future, but only right now in this moment."

I was inspired.
"You are never alone - God is always available - there is no need to place a call and get a busy signal or find that no one is at home, send an email, and get no response, twitter, join facebook or send a text - He hears you wherever you are either vocally or from your heart. He is the best Friend you will ever have."

Loneliness can overwhelm anyone at anytime. I found out years ago that I could talk to God like a Friend, no special words, in no special place and He was always listening.
"I would just like to tell anyone going through a particularly tough time in their life that they most assuredly are loved. God loves you and I love you, and so do many others around the world. Hang on in there, even if you can't see it right now. God promises to help, but in His time, which is above and beyond what we could expect. Don't let go, keep praying, and when life hands you lemons try to make lemonade, but if you feel your spirits waning, give them to God who will help you along the way."

There was a time several years ago that I felt as alone as could be. I read stories about people who had great friends who were there to pick them up when they fell. I thought that was all myth, as I hardly had any friends and didn't really feel understood. However, I prayed and prayed for a friend, and now I have been blessed beyond my imagination with over a dozen friends who I can turn to for a laugh or a smile. Know that God does help, but by His agenda and not ours. We are never alone. Know that I am praying for you!
"We can't catch kindness in a net or a gun. When kindness is given to you, it's by choice. One must adopt an attitude of gratitude."

"Never underestimate . . . the power of the Master's touch."
Written in 2010 by Chrissy G.--- Canada
"Closing a chapter in your book of life states that you have grown in certain areas of your life. It shows you that you are ready for some new challenges & new growth. You may experience some pain and memories, but the pain and memories have now turned into wisdom. So now, apply your new growth, new challenges, and wisdom to another chapter of your life and create new memories."

"Born unknown only to die and be a legend."
Written in 2009 by Kenneth Mjojo --- England
My brother stated a negative quote, 'born to live a legend only to die to be unknown'. I turned the quote into a positive image. I believe for every man there is a legacy - we just have to 'find a way or make one'.
"Those who are sensitive often feel weak. Those who feel strong are often insensitive. Some people are sensitive to themselves but insensitive to others. They often feel the others are "bad guys." Those who are sensitive to others but not to themselves often end up feeling poor me.
Some conclude it's better not to be sensitive, because sensitivity brings pain. They shut off. But mind you , if you are not sensitive, you will lose all the finer things in life, too - intuition, beauty and ecstasy of love.
Insensitive people usually do not recognize their weakness and those who are sensitive do not recognize that their sensitivity is their strength.
This path and this Knowledge make you strong and sensitive.
Sensitivity is intuition. Sensitivity is compassion. Sensitivity is love. Sensitivity is real strength: calmness, endurance, silence, non-reactiveness, confidence, faith
and a smile.
Be both sensitive and strong."

"If you smile, it's good; it means you are thinking about god. But if you make a crying person laugh, it means god is thinking about you."

"We must acknowledge someone's presence, once in while, to show that they are appreciated. You don't need money to give them a little attention, some Love, or an ear to listen."

"I love my life! Even if I don't get what I want, when I want it, doesn't mean the world is against me, it just means God has other plans."

"Problems are never ways to discourage us but are opportunities for growth and new discoveries, inventions and stepping points for a higher calling."

"Destiny is not what is there in your hands. Destiny is what you decide to do with your hands."
Written in 2010 by Shruti Awasthi --- India
This quote is very inspiring to the one who believe in the doings of fate. I strongly feel that destiny is not a matter of chance but a matter of choice.
We are like pencils
Our true worth lies within us
We are in God's hands and He uses us
We are sharpened in life by events and situations
We are also expected to leave a mark

A life living for nothing other than a higher purpose, not for things.
"Face it, lapses happen. Let the Lord pull you up by your bootstraps, dust you off and help you realize; by acknowledging the slip, you've already succeeded."

After being in recovery from an exercise and eating disorder, I have had a lot of reflection time in my life. I can't seem to stop thinking of how much life means to me, and I hope that my quote(s) can be of hope and help to someone else out there. Thank you for reading this! Take care, stay strong and God Bless!
