A Quote for the Day

Oftentimes we missed the fact that the life we despise is someone else's dream.

Some children do not deserve their parents. Most parents deserve their children.

A broken heart only truly heals when it forgives-- really forgives--the person who broke it.

We learn to love the most when we lost the one we love. We tend to take them for granted wrongly assuming they will always be there. It is time to cherish them when they are still alive. For eternity may still be too long when we meet them again.

Oftentimes asking the right questions provides more answers than making assumptions that you understand what's being said. It is a fact of psychology that we seldom fully understand what we hear or read. We simply try to make sense of the message through the eyes of our presumptions. Most of human relationships fail because of this.

The adage, "no pain; no gain," is overrated. You don't have to seek for the pain in order to get that gain. It is always smarter to get the gain without getting the pain. And that applies to almost anything in life. A bit of thinking--creative thinking--is needed though. Sports scientists knows that very well. Painful muscles are signs of overdoing it. It is always better to train those muscles without having to let lactic acid cause any pain. A brief rest can do the trick. Rest, then do it again.

Generosity is measured not with what portion of the excess that you give, but with how much of what you need that you let go for others.
