Live not in yesterdays,
Look back and you may sorrow.
Live precisely for today,
James Joseph Huesgen.

Set your goals, soar with eagles.
You will reap what you sow.
What goes around comes around.

True friends are like diamonds
Precious and rare,
False ones like autum leaves
Found everywhere.

Make new friends,
But keep the old.
One is of silver,
The other is of gold.

What this world needs,
Is more acts of kindness,
And more words of love.
To make this world's mess,
More like Heaven above.

Treat others the way you want them to treat you.

Procrastination has been the cause of many failures.

Life is what you make it.

Parents are human, they make mistakes too.

The world does owe you a living,
but you have to work very hard to collect it.

God helps those who help themselves.

For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotton Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but
have everlasting life,
John: 3:16.

Losing someone's trust in you is very hard to regain.

All men were created equal.

Don't judge others by a few.

Don't judge anyone until you've walked a mile in their shoes.

Lies compound lies, honesty is the best policy.

You are judged by words, actions and deeds by others,
Think before you speak or act..

Never make promises you know you can't/won't keep
or don't think you can/will keep.
Broken promises are not easily forgotten even by close friends.
Many friendships are destroyed by broken promises.

Be very careful when you say, "I'm sorry".
If you say, "I'm sorry" too many times to the same person,
the words won't have any meaning to them.
Say, "I'm sorry" and mean it and show them that you mean it.
Do your utmost not to make the same mistake again that you
were sorry for.

Those who bring happiness and sunshine into the lives of others
can not keep it from themselves.

Those who bring unhappiness and clouds into the lives of others
can not keep it from themselves.

"To touch someone, you must first reach their heart.."
Hellen Keller

It is much better to give than to receive.

To have a friend, you first must be a friend.
To keep a friend, you must give your friend
as much as your friend is giving you.

Never welcome something you cannot entertain.
Never open your doors if you mean to close your heart.
Never accept love if you can't give yourself in return.
Never start a relationship you know you want to end.

Two of the shortest words in the English language are
"YES" and "NO" and yet they are often the ones
that require the most thought before they are said.

Some thoughts are better left unsaid.
Some feelings are better left kept to yourself,
Love has its way of expressing itself despite the silence.

Always say you are sorry to people you have wronged.
Remember, it is not always what you say that hurts.
Sometimes the words that you don't.say that hurt.

Never abandon an old friend.
You will never find one who can take his place.
Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

God didn't promise days without pain,
laughter without sorrow,
sun without rain.
He did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears,
and light for the way.

Disappointments are like road humps.
They slow you down a bit but ,
you enjoy the smooth road afterwards.
Don't stay on the humps too long.
Move on!

When you feel down because
you didn't get what you want,
just sit tight and be happy,
because God is thinking of something
better to give you.
When something happens to you,
good or bad, consider what it means.
There's a purpose to life's events,
to teach you how to laugh more
or not to cry too hard.

You can't make someone love you.
All you can do is be someone
who can be loved.
The rest is up to the person
to realize your worth.

Life is a coin.
You can spend it any way you wish,
but you can spend it only once.

FIVE RULES TO BE HAPPY
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

What the heart gives away is never gone.
It is kept in the hearts of others.

Remember that great love and
great achievements involve great risks.

Secure a special place in your heart.
A certain place only you can enter.
For there will come a time when
you need to find yourself and
only your heart will show you the way.

The measure of love is when you love without measure.

In life there are very rare chances
that you'll meet the person you love
and loves you in return.
So once you have it don't ever let go,
the chance might never come your way again.

People are made to be loved
Things are made to be used.
That's why there's so much chaos in the world.
People are being used and things are being loved.

You cannot finish a book without closing its chapters.
If you want to go on, then you have to leave the past
as you turn the pages of life.

Every commitment is a choice.
Non-choosers and half-choosers
are a puzzle to themselves and to others.
They live in the immature condition
of wanting to "play everything by ear."

Every once in a while ask yourself the question:
"If money wasn't a consideration,
what would I like to be doing?"

It's better to lose your pride to the one you love,
than to lose the one you love because of pride.

We spend so much time looking
for the right person to love
or finding fault with those we already love,
when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.

When you truly care for someone.
You don't look for faults.
You don't look for answers.
You don't look for mistakes.
Instead, you fight the mistakes.
You accept the faults.
You overlook excuses.
