Know The Value Of Your Friendship

If someone keeps bringing you down when you know you have tried your best to make them happy, let them go because they don’t know the value of your friendship and they probably never will.

A Soft And Caring Hand

Friends share our pain and heal our wounds with a soft and caring hand.

Silence

Sometimes, silence doesn’t mean ‘yes’, it simply means you’re tired of having to explain yourself to people who don’t care to understand.

Love Is Just A Word

Love is just a word but you bring it definition.

The Pain Of Life

When you feel the pain of life, remember that somebody in the world is feeling the pain of hunger or in search of shelter or in need of clothing to keep warm. Live your life the best way you can with what you have been given because it’s probably more than what somebody else has. Remove the pain and see the blessings.

Life Gives You An Opportunity

Every day life gives you an opportunity to do something meaningful and its up to you to you act upon it or not. 

Let Down By People

We are often let down by the most trusted persons and loved by the most unexpected ones. Some make us cry for things that we haven’t done, while some ignore all our faults just to see our smile. Some leave us when we need them the most, while some stick to us even when we ask them to leave. This world is a mixture of people. We just need to know which hand to shake and which hand to hold.

Be A Real Woman

Be a woman of substance. Be a real woman. It is difficult to break down a real woman because she will learn from her mistakes, gather strength from her struggles and overcome the obstacles courageously.

In Your Darkest Hour

Even in your darkest hour there are millions of people going through similar and often worse situations. I say that not to belittle your issue, but as a way of saying we’re all in this together and you’re not alone.

Pain And Suffering

Sometimes our lives are filled with such pain and suffering, it’s hard to believe life will ever get better. Don’t lose hope because there’s always tomorrow and with every tomorrow comes a new beginning.

Depression Is Not An Act

Depression is not an act. Bipolar isn’t an excuse. Eating disorders aren’t phases. Suicide isn’t a coward’s escape. Self-harming is not a cry for attention. Addicts can’t snap out of it. Stop acting like you know everything and try to understand – warmth and compassion can go a long way. It could even save a life.

Stop Bullying

I wish some people could accept others as they are, not for what they aren’t. Stop bullying, because words hurt. We all have flaws in the end, so think before you speak, maybe you can save a life! Dedicated to all the victims of bullying around the world, speak up!

Forgive Those Who Have Wronged You

You will begin to heal when you let go of your past hurts. Forgive those who have wronged you and learn to forgive yourself for your mistakes.

One Of The Joys In Life Is . . .

One of the joys in life is waking up each day with thoughts that somewhere, someone cares enough to send a warm morning greeting! I’m wishing all my friends a wonderful weekend. Embrace it with gratitude, for it is a precious gift. Good morning! Love to all, Kaoru.

To Find Security

Fear begins and ends with the desire to be secure; inward and outward security, with the desire to be certain, to have permanency. The continuity of permanence is sought in every direction, in virtue, in relationship, in action, in experience, in knowledge, in outward and inward things. To find security and be secure is the everlasting cry. It is this insistent demand that breeds fear.

The Value Of Your Tears

Never cry for that person who doesn’t know the value of your tears.

Appreciate and Love

Being in the moment involves giving maximum appreciation and love to your present experience.

Japanese Proverb

Japanese Proverb: Fear is only as deep as the mind allows.

You're Not Perfect

Don’t make a habit of pointing out other people’s flaws. You’re not perfect either. Look in the mirror before you look out the window. The people that are in our lives generally are not the people we want, but the people we need. To teach, hurt, love and make us exactly the way we should be.

The Day Is Filled With Blessings

The night ends with stars, the morning starts off with the sun, and the day is filled with blessings. Be grateful you can wake every morning and you can fall asleep at night and you have another day to live life.

Not Everyone Will Treat You The Same Way

Not everyone will treat you the same way you treat them. Learn to stop attaching expectation to people and accept them for their authentic self.

Change Your Future

If your smile you can change yourself, others and your future.

Being Alive Is Fantastic!

The whole world is a series of miracles. Every time you pick up a handful of dust, and see not the dust but a mystery, a marvel there in your hand. Every time you stop and think I’m alive and being alive is fantastic. Every time such a thing happens be thankful you are one of these miracles.

Climb The Ladder

Without confidence you have nothing. If you lack confidence find ways to build yourself up. Set achievable goals and climb the ladder back up to a person full of confidence.

Value Of Memories

The value of memories increases over time. What may seem trivial today could become priceless tomorrow.

Love Is A Gift

Love is a gift you give that receiver’s won’t forget. It is more blessed to give than to receive.   

Mind, Feelings And Emotions

Stop letting people who do so little for you, control so much of your mind, feelings, and emotions.

New Beginnings

Mondays represent a fresh start to the week. It is the day where the slate from the previous week is wiped clean. It is a day of new beginnings.

Add Value To Life

Congratulate yourself for whatever growth you’ve gained from dealing with each difficult situation you encounter and each mistake you make. Remember that these things add value to life as much as the more pleasant experiences we all value. And be glad that you always have the opportunity to learn from your mistakes in one way or another.

You Can Love

If you can open your heart, you can love.

Appreciate Your Potential

There’s nothing wrong in appreciating yourself and your self worth. In fact it’s a good virtue appreciate your given potential.

Focus On A Soluntion

Focus on the here and now. If something is bothering you, then focus on a solution. Visualize how you would like it to turn out then take action toward making it happen. Take as much action as you can in this moment, then let it go. When the timing is right continue taking further action and then let it go again.

Make Peace With Who You Are

Until you make peace with who you are, you'll never be content with what you have.

A Person Is Only Beautiful

A person is only beautiful, when their own beauty, is reflecting on to others.

Peace And Inner Security

You can never get to peace and inner security without first acknowledging all of the good things in your life. If you're forever wanting and longing for more without first appreciating things the way they are, you'll stay in discord.

Life Is Like The Ocean

Life is like the Ocean. It can be calm or still, and rough or rigid, but in the end it’s always beautiful.

Empowering Moments We Live For

Some people are Special because of what they say or do for you. It may be nothing much or it could mean the world to you. But whatever the act it has touched your life in ways like no other other. These are the empowering moments we all live for.

Smile Upon The Memories

Don’t dwell on what you’ve lost, smile upon the memories you created. They’ll be with you for the rest of your life.

Determines Your Destiny

It’s choice - not chance - that determines your destiny.

Say You Hate Your Life

Don’t say you hate your life because it can be gone in an instant. Be thankful for what you have because you never know what’ll happen next.

Live And Survive In This World

Your life is about how you feel and react to your own self. It is said that happiness comes from within. So your happiness is purely dependent upon you. It is your own self who can make you what you are. External factors surely play a significant role in effecting your moods and approach but if you realize the fact that your happiness and the good feeling is solely dependent on yourself, then you might be able to live and survive in this world with clear thought and mind.

Grow And Build and Love

Healing. Today is your day and mine, the only day we have, the day in which we play our part -- and the whole world is starting to feel it all at once. It is no time for cynicism. This is our time to grow and build and love.

For Life To Be Meaningful

For life to be meaningful, add a little sacrifice, subtract anger and hatred, multiply friends and divide love for everyone to share.

Your Past Is Just A Story

Once you realize your past is just a story, it has no power over you.

The More You Give, The More You Receive

“The more you give, the more you receive”. We’ve all heard this one before when it comes to being generous with money, but this lesson applies to way more than charitable giving.  You literally get back everything you put out there.  If you want more of anything in your life, then be aware of what you are personally putting out there — kindness, generosity, love, anger, frustration, money, etc.  It all comes right back to you.

A Happy Ending

Second chances don’t always mean a happy ending. Sometimes, it’s just another chance to end things right.

The Right Decisions

You can’t make the right decisions all the time. But you can learn from the wrong ones every time.

Hear Your Own Voice

Alone time is when you distance yourself from the voices of the world so you can hear your own.

Dust Yourself Off

We all fall down in life. What matters is how we get up and dust ourselves off.

Leap Into The Unknown

Take a leap into the unknown and know that where you land, is where you are meant to be.

Do The Work Yourself

No one can do it for you. You have to do the work yourself. The only expectation you should have on anyone is for their support. Some people take the high road and others take the low road. One demonstrates character and the other are too busy worrying about themselves.

Who Is Looking Back At You

When you look into a mirror . . . and don’t know the person who is looking back at you, it is time to change.

Sadness Of Your Past

Never let the sadness of your past and the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present.

You Love

You live. You work. You dream. You pray.  . . But most of all you love and that’s the best thing any person can do.

Fill A Void In Your Life

Sometimes, when we lack in completeness we seek relationships, or material things to complete us – seek to be complete and not to fill a void in your life.

Step Out Of The Path

Shadows are people who don’t know the difference between being an individual, and being a close copy. Step out of the path, become your own person.

We All Deal With Life Differently

You may not show your feelings to everyone but it doesn’t mean that the things that surround you do not affect you. We all deal with life differently; learn to accept people for who they are and not who you want them to be.

Defeat The Darkness

Stand in your Light and Shine brightly because that is how you defeat darkness.

Choose Your Words Carefully

Choose your words carefully, the last thing you say to someone could be the thing they ever hear . . . there is no promises of tomorrow.

Resentment And Jealousy

Anger, resentment and jealousy doesn’t change the heart of others - it only changes yours.

Acts Of Generosity Are A Source Of Blessings

Helping a person in need is good in itself. But the degree of goodness is hugely affected by the attitude with which it is done. If you show resentment because you are helping the person out of a reluctant sense of duty, then the person may receive your help but feel awkward and embarrassed. This is because he will feel beholden to you. If, on the other hand, you help the person in a spirit of joy, then the help will be received joyfully. The person will fell neither demeaned nor humiliated by your help, but rather will feel glad to have caused you pleasure by receiving your help. And joy is the appropriate attitude with which to help others because acts of generosity are a source of blessing to the giver as well as the receiver.

You Are Beautiful And Loved

I send you love and light, my friends, from my heart to yours – to love you, to protect you, to guide you, to heal you, to cherish you, to comfort you. You are beautiful and loved. - Kaoru

Learn To Be Brave

We would never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world.

Fight For Life

Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is tradedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it.

The Perception Of Who You Are

The perception of who you are is something that we must always be aware of. Who are you? This is a question we should all ask ourselves on occasion? Give yourself a good answer, and be honest with yourself! Yes you have bad qualities, just as you have good qualities. You have strange qualities, just as you probably have some normal qualities as well.

Are you still the person that you thought you were long ago, and is everything you do relevant to who you really are at your core? We all have a soul that we can either connect with or choose to deny. Those who are happy are those who are able to connect with the person inside of them, who know their worth. Take advantage of what has given you by acting in this life as yourself!

Love The People

Accept the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.

Judge Each Day

Don’t judge each day by the disappointments you come by but by the accomplishments you made.

A Gift For You

Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.

You Are Special

You are special because you are extraordinary. Special is not being the “best” at something or being the “most” of something, because someone will always be better at different things and in different ways than you are. Special doesn’t even mean being good at anything. You are wonderful because you are distinctly different from everyone else.

Take Over The World Today

Rise and shine! Today is YOUR day! Believe in you and you can have it all! Take over the world today.

Appreciation

Appreciation is a powerful tool to shift perspective. Finding something to appreciate during a difficult situation quickly moves the perspective to the big picture from the little picture.

Send Out Love

As you continue to send out love, the energy returns to you in a regenerating spiral... As love accumulates, it keeps your system in balance and harmony. Love is the tool, and more love is the end product.

Sharing It With Others

Whatever we possess becomes of double value when we have the opportunity of sharing it with others.

Pull Another Hand Into The Light

Dare to reach out your hand into the darkness, to pull another hand into the light.

Holding On And Letting Go

Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.
