Philosophy for Life
Be patient,
Be open minded.
Smile often,
Savor special moments.
Make new friends….
Rediscover the old ones.
Tell them that you love them…
And when you love them,
Feel it deeply.
Ignore worries, forget problems,
Pardon enemies, keep promises.
If you get more than one chance,
try again.
Prize your good ideas.
Try not to make mistakes,
And if you do, learn from them.
Be crazy.
Appreciate miracles when they happen.
Notice where the sun is in the sky,
Listen to the rain.
Watch for rainbows and falling stars.
Look for the beauty around you.
Smile with your heart,
Confide in others.
Give to others,
And be gentle with others, always.
Hope,
Desire,
Grow,
Work hard…. be yourself.
Be understanding when it’s needed.
Have confidence in life, have faith
Comfort a friend
Have confidence in yourself.
“ENJOY LIFE!!”

Pam and A, in tears right now. the poem is so true and im touched dearly!
it ease to know you are not the only one faced with a challenge. i have learned that, love is the most dangerous thing in life. CURRENTLY, i am re-discovering myself, because of just loving someone. i wish i never loved at all. just like you A, i once asked God, to take me aways because the pain of the heart was so unbearble. i loved him with the inner part of myheart that it seems he will always be part of me. my hope and prayers now is for my heart to be healed and to move on.. when ever he cross mymind i always say “take care of him lord and just give him the best”. it will get better girls and lets move on for now!

My soul mate and darling wife send this to me. This sums up how we are to walk through life, as Jesus walked and taught to become as He by his example.

“How does one put what they feel in words?” I think some one just did. Thankyou. I sent this to my daughter as a wedding card.
To those of you young and old, pray together. Life gets so busy some times we for get the little things. I did. Let’s remind our young people it is not a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of love and guidance.
