The Story of Life


Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.

You never know who these people may be...possibly your roommate, neighbor, coworker, long lost friend, or even a complete stranger, but when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way.
And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.

Everything happens for a reason.

Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.

If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.

Make every day count.

Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen.

Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high.

Hold your head up because you have every right to.

Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you.

You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.

Most importantly!!!
if you LOVE someone tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store.

And learn a lesson in life each day that you live.
THAT’S THE STORY OF LIFE

What Men wants From A Woman

Whether it's what they want from a woman, or from a relationship, the movies, media and our girlfriends give us mixed messages that leave daters confused, frustrated and possibly even making tragic dating mistakes that leave them stuck in their romantic rut. Today we'll dispel some common myths in the "Dating with Dignity Guide to What Men Really Want: Three Myths and Three Truths to Stop Wondering Today!" Myth: Men want a quiet, demure woman who is amenable to their needs. Truth: Men really want a happy, confident, communicative woman who is loving and kind. We sometimes mistakenly think that a man wants us to agree with everything he says. NOT TRUE. What's more, contrary to popular belief, men also cannot simply read your mind or guess what you truly want based on your "umphhs, silence, cold shoulder, eye-roll, or door slam." Males and females communicate differently. So when you're in a relationship with a Boyfriend Material man, he's goi...

I've Learned

I've Learned By H. Jackson Brown, Jr. I've learned - that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them. I've learned - that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. I've learned - that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it. I've learned - that it's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts. I've learned - that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you'd better know something. I've learned - that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do. I've learned - that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. I've learned - that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be. I've learned - that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them. I...

What is Your worth?

Several years ago, a Pastor was posted to a church in a big town, Some weeks after he arrived, he had an occasion to ride in a bus from his home to the downtown area. When he sat down after paying for the fare, he discovered that the bus-driver had mistakenly given him a little above his change. As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, ''You'd better give the excess back. It would be wrong to keep it.'' Then he thought again, ''Oh, forget it, it's only a quarter. The driver won't worry about this little amount, moreover he makes so much money it won't affect him. Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keep quiet.....It doesn't matter...'' When he got to his bus-stop and was about to alight, he paused shortly at the door, and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said, ''Here, you gave me excess change.'' The driver, with a smile, replied, ''Aren't you the new Pastor in town?'' ...
