LOVE YOURSELF

It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work when we no longer know which way to go - We have begin our Real Journey.

Silently now I wait for Thee, Ready, my God, Thy will to see Open my heart --- illumine me, Spirit divine. - Scott -

Be the Best you are EAT - LOVE - PRAY -

I welcome myself to - Serenity - love - believe.

Life is like a ten speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use. - Charle M. Schulz -

From the moment we walk out the door until we come back home our sensibilities are so assaulted by the world that we have to soak up as much love as we can get, simply to arm ourselves. - Patty Duke -

The world is a great mirror. It reflects back what you are. - Thomas Dreier -

The mind is like a river, upon its waters thoughts float through in a constant procession every conscious moment. You stand on a bridge over it and can stop and turn back any thought that comes along. The art of contentment is to let no thought pass that is going to disturb you. - Dr. Frank Crane -

When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but with creatures of emotion, creatures bristling with prejudice and motivated by pride and vanity. - Dole Carnegie -

Perhaps it would be a good idea, fantastic as it sounds, to muffle every telephone, stop every motor and halt all activity for an hour some day to give people a chance to ponder for a few minutes on what it is all about. Why they are living and what they really want. - James Truslow Adams -

For the rest of my life I'm going to trust that God is always at work in all things, and give Him thanks long before my simplest prayers are answered. - Nancy Parker Brummett -

Why aren't you happy? It's because 99 % of everything you do, and say, and think, is for yourself. - Wei Wu Wei -

A woman who dose not think for herself dose not think at all.

Our best friends and our worst enemies are our thoughts. - Dr. Frank Crane -

Nothing is good or bad but that our thinking makes it so. - Shakespeare -

I WAITED patiently for the LORD; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry.

WAIT on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait I say, on the LORD!
