* REFLECTIONS 01-31-13

Do what makes you happy 

and look upon

what gives you joy. 

Speak to those who warm you 

and listen to that 

which lifts your spirit. 

Surround yourself with sights

and sounds 

and people 

who give you pleasure.

And, 

for all the happiness 

you give to others,

go ahead 

and give yourself 

a perfect day!

Freedom to live, 

to grow, 

to experience your full capabilities 

is as close as your faith. 

Cling only to that 

and discover the love 

that's truly in your heart 

and the hearts 

of your loved ones.

"Each person 

has inside a basic decency 

and goodness. 

If he listens to it 

and acts on it, 

he is giving a great deal 

of what it is

the world needs most."

 -Pablo Casals

Feelings of worth 

can flourish only in an atmosphere

where individual differences 

are appreciated, 

mistakes are tolerated, 

communication is open, 

and rules are flexible - 

the kind of atmosphere 

that is found 

in a nurturing family. 

 

       - Virginia Sati

"There is no greater joy 

nor greater reward 

than to make a fundamental
in someone’s life."

-Sister Mary Rose McGeady

Don’t keep crying 

because of a mistake.
Learn from it 

and move on. 

Stop blaming yourself 

over things you have 

NO control over.
