Look at yourself first.

If you can't be there......don't. Stop telling people that you will be there, It's better to tell people the truth up front. That way you can spare some feelings and you don't get caught in a bunch of lies/trouble.
Don't try to bring your grievances when you can't find witnesses to support it.
Don't go around to get attention from people.
People know who you are by now.

If you have something to say........say it or shut it. Don't go behind peoples backs. There is no reason to say it to someone else if you can't tell it to the person it's about.

If you want it.......go for it. Take a risk. Don't always play it safe or you'll die wondering.

If you love someone.......let them know. Anything could happen to you or the person so tell them while you have a chance. It could change everything.

If you're stuck.......make the best of it. There is obviously nothing you can do so whining and complaining isn't going to do anything-there is a difference between expressing how you feel and complaining. Put forth your best attitude and you just may get out of the mess......possibly with a different perspective.

If you're troubled........take time to think about it. Nothing good ever comes out of rash decisions. If it's important enough to trouble you then it's important enough to think about-think deep you'll figure out something.

If you are being taken advantage of.......let go. Get rid of all thoughts of the person. There is no reason to continue to surround yourself with the person who is taking advantage of you.

If you're going to criticize someone else........admit your own mistakes first. Everyone makes mistakes. But be aware of your own before you point out someone elses.

Happiness

"The True Meaning of Happiness"

Happy thoughts or positive thoughts are very important. There is power in our thoughts and we can shape our lives through them. We always say and think that we would like our lives to be like this or like that. Once we know what we want we can follow the path much easier. We are given the means to become what we want to become, it´s just that sometimes it is a bit difficult for us to see this. If you are true to yourself you can accomplish a lot.thoughts and we can shape our lives through them. We always say and think that we would like our lives to be like this or like that. Once we know what we want we can follow the path much easier. We are given the means to become what we want to become, it´s just that sometimes it is a bit difficult for us to see this. If you are true to yourself you can accomplish a lot .This stock of unhappiness at the depth of the mind keeps on multiplying as long as one keeps generating negativeness such as anger, hatred, ill will, and animosity. The so-called happiness that one experiences by having money, power, and indulging in sensual pleasures is not real happiness.It is very fragile, unstable and fleeting. For real happiness, for lasting stable happiness, one has to make a journey deep within oneself and get rid of all the unhappiness stored in the deeper levels of the mind. As long as there is misery at the depth of the mind all attempts to feel happy at the surface level of the mind prove futile. The scientific laws that operate one's thoughts, feelings, judgments and sensations become clear. Through direct experience, the nature of how one grows or regresses, how one produces suffering or frees oneself from suffering is understood. Life becomes characterized by increased awareness, non-delusion, self-control and peace. So practice being Happy.....

Life

it has been never been like this,

not quite sure of what i want

don’t know what more that i need to do,

feels like a soul devoid of life;

one moment my joy knew no bounds,

a new beginning is what i got,

a new meaning to a lonely existence,

i was happy;

as reality dawned on me,

i felt my happiness come crashing down,

all in one big thud, i wondered

if my luck was anything but bad;

i try to find a reason,

i try to find a cure,

i tried all that was possible,

but it feels as if my life has come to a standstill;

i don’t want to give up,

i don’t want to cave in so easily,

so i am desperately plotting my revenge

against a life that has become mundane;

(and take control of it once and for all

before i lose my sanity and question my very existence)

For you girl

When a daughter is born

Foggy dreams

Become crystal clear

As playgrounds

And birthday parties

Take giant leaps

And minutes turn into years.

Rhymes from mother's day cards

Turn into sad songs

When broken toys

Become broken hearts

And mother's arms still fit around

Their daughter's sighs.

Hugs

Laughter

Drops of tears

Weave treasured tapestries for

Many years.

Mugs of hot cocoa

Become cups of tea

And a love that has been nourished

Cannot help but flourish

From baby steps to

College steps

From building blocks to

Travel clocks

A mother's heart is always near

A daughter's love is very dear.

My daughter

Davelyn..... do you know

I wonder can you see

How precious is your life

and all you mean to me

An unexpected gift

Delightful precious girl

Did you know that at first sight

You set my heart a whirl

As the morning sun rises

You're there within my heart

No matter what storm may come

My love it cannot part

Daughter do you know

What words can never say

How awesome is my love for you

Still growing day by day

Your beauty overwhelms me

Abilities do astound

Anything you hope or dream

By you they can be found

You fill my days with light

You make me laugh out loud

You I am so glad to have

Of you I am so proud

A poem for you apple..

A mother tries to provide her daughter with insight

into the important things in life

in order to make her life

as happy and fulfilling as possible.

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to be good, always helpful to other people

to be fair, always treating others equally

to have a positive attitude at all times

to always make things right when they are wrong

to know herself well

to know what her talents are

to set goals for herself

to not be afraid of working too hard to reach her goals.

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to have many interests to pursue

to laugh and have fun every day

to appreciate the beauty of nature

to enter into friendships with good people

to honor their friendships and always be a good friend

and to particularly respect and love our elder members

to use her intelligence all times

to listen to her emotions

to adhere to her values

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to not be afraid to stick to her beliefs

to not follow the majority when the majority is wrong

to carefully plan a life for herself

to vigorously follow her chosen path

to enter into a relationship with someone worthy of herself

to love this person unconditionally with her body and mind

to share all that she has learned in her life with this person

If I have provided you with an insight

into most of these things

then I have succeeded as a mother

in what I hoped to accomplish in raising you

if many of these slipped by

while we were all so busy

I have a feeling you know them anyway

One thing I am sure of though,

I have taught you to be proud of the fact

that you are a woman equal to all men and

that I have loved you every second of your life

I have supported you at all times

as a mother, as a person, and as a friend

I will always continue to cherish and love

everything about you

my beautiful daughter.

I will always love you.....
