    “Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.”
    how very true:drinker:

    Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind.
    To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse.
    To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better.
    To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.

    WOW..this one is so awesome....so powerful... I love it!!:drinker:

    This was shared by Tresa in a thread earlier today... wanted to place it on here so others could see it as well....:flowerforyou: :happy:

    Now is Your Moment
    +++++++++++++++++++

    It is now, and now is different. Even though you may have
    experienced an overwhelming amount of disappointment in the
    past, the past is over.

    Perhaps you've failed again and again. Now is different.

    That was then and this is now. Now you have the opportunity
    to move forward.

    Now you can do what you've never been able to do before. Now
    you can follow through on the things you've been unable or
    unwilling to do in the past.

    Now is your moment to live. Now is the time to act.

    Now is when you can truly make a difference. Stand up, step
    forward and live.

    ~Ralph Marston

    "We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives.not looking for flaws, but for potential."

    From Dear Abby...

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts that depress me. If my mind fills with clouds, I will chase them away and fill it with sunshine.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will accept what is. I will face reality. I will correct those things that I can correct and accept those I cannot.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. I will not be a mental loafer.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I'll not speak ill of others. I'll improve my appearance, speak softly, and not interrupt when someone else is talking. Just for today, I'll refrain from improving anybody but myself.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will do something positive to improve my health. If I'm a smoker, I'll quit. If I'm overweight, I'll eat healthily -- if only just for today. And not only that, I'll get off the couch and take a brisk walk, even if it's only around the block.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will gather the courage to do what is right and take responsibility for my own actions.

    For last year's words belong to last year's language;
    And next year's words await another voice.
    And to make an end is to make a beginning.

    Two cards I bought this weekend to hang in my cubicle at work:

    So profound. Empowering. What if you couldn't fail? What would you do? The first thing that came to mind for me was climbing Mount Everest. How funny is that? If I put some thought into it, I'd bet it would have to be something like being a foster parent (if 'not failing' = saving those dear children and putting their lives back together) or working as an advocate of children or the elderly in court. What if you couldn't fail? It helps to put things in perspective. We can all do anything.

    My favorite is 6. learn to use a semicolon.
    Nothing is final. Use that backspace key, take off that period. Replace it with a semicolon and keep that sentence going. Life never ends. We all change. We are dynamic.

    Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.

    Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow.

    When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning,
    by dreams that need completion,
    by pure love that needs expressing,
    then we truly live life.

    Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets
    So love the people who treat you right,
    forget the ones who don't,
    and believe that everything
    happens for a reason.
    If you get a change, take it;
    If it changes your life, let it,
    Nobody said it would be easy,
    They just said it would be worth it.

    Your body is the baggage
    you must carry through
    life. The more excess the
    baggage, the shorter the trip.
