♥ - REFLECTIONS - ♥

When there's something that needs to be done,

 give yourself a moment to do it.

When there's a decision that must be made,

give yourself a moment to think it through.

When life demands a response, give yourself a moment

to find the most positive and meaningful one.

When someone is explaining something to you, give yourself a moment to truly listen and to understand.

Life is made up of many moments, one right after another.

The big outcomes, results and achievements

 depend on what you do with all those little moments along the way.

With each moment you can choose to let it pass or

 to let it bring you down.

Or, you can decide to make good use of that moment

with positive purpose, value and love.

How many times have you looked back on your life

 with regret, and wished you had given yourself a moment to do what could have easily been done?

Now is your opportunity to avoid such future regrets

 by recognizing the great value in each moment.

When life is asking something of you, give yourself

 a moment to make it right.

And when you add up all those moments,

you'll find you've made life great.

Scriptures

1 John 1:7   But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanse us from all sin.

Ephesians 1:7   In Christ Jesus we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace.

Acts 4:12  Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Love isn’t a decision,
it’s a feeling.
If we could decide who to love,
then, life would be much simpler,
but then less magical.

The delicacy of the chancel, is to understand that the clouds
are black, and at dawn,
the sun rises with its multicolored rays
showing us that life is worth living.

In the walk of life,
Dont worry of people
moving ahead of you!
take your own time,
But once you are ready to run,

make sure u r the best of all! 

"There is no such thing as a product or a service;

there is only a methodology to create Relationship."

  "Nothing is pre-written and

Nothing can be re-written!

  So write carefully..

Live the best and Leave the rest..!

"A merry heart doeth good like a medicine... (Proverbs 17:22)."

"Martha Stewart's Way or MY Way!?!"

Martha's way : Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips. 

My way: Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, you are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway.

Martha's way : Use a meat baster to "squeeze" your pancake batter onto the hot griddle and you'll get perfectly shaped pancakes every time.

My way: Buy the precooked kind you nuke in the microwave for 30 seconds.The hard part is getting them out of the little plastic bag.

Martha's way: To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.

My way: Buy a package of instant mashed potato flakes and keep it in the pantry for as long as you like.

Martha's way: To prevent egg shells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard boiling.

My way: Who cares if they crack, aren't you going to take the shells off anyway?

Martha's way : To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter before squeezing.

My way: Buy a pint bottle of lemon juice & keep it in the refrigerator. It's ready to use anytime.

Martha's way: To easily remove burnt-on food from your skillet, simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan,and bring to a boil on stove top.

My way: Microwave & paper plates.

Martha's way : Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in tomato based sauces and there won't be any stains.

My way: Feed your dog and there won't be any leftovers.

Martha's way #8: When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.

My way: Go to the bakery at Wal Mart. They'll even decorate it for you.

Martha's way: If you accidentally over salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix me up."

My way: If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too bad. My motto: I made it and you can eat it. Don't bite the hand that feeds you!

Martha's way: Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.

My way: Celery? Who eats that stuff.

Martha's way: Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.

My way: The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust and so I don't do it.

Martha's way : Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to soften it.

My Way: Is Brown Sugar supposed to be soft?

Martha's way : When boiling corn on the cob, add a pinch of sugar to help bring out the corn's natural sweetness.

My Way: The only kind of corn I buy comes in a can.

Martha's way: Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just slice and rub raw potato on the stains and rinse with water.

My way: Mashed potatoes will now be replacing the anti-bacterial soap in the handy dispenser next to my sink.

Martha's way: Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer. Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, brush and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean vitreous china. Clean a vase. To remove a stain from the bottom of a glass vase or cruet, fill with water and drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets. Polish jewelry. Drop two Alka-Seltzer tablets into a glass of water and immerse the jewelry for two minutes. Clean a thermos bottle. Fill the bottle with water, drop in four Alka-Seltzer tablets, and let soak for an hour (or longer, if necessary).

My way: Put your jewelry, vases, and thermos in the toilet. Add some Alka-Seltzer and you have solved a whole bunch of problems at once.
