Moments in Life.


There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

Don't go for looks; they can deceive.

Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.

Go for someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you
strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can't go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Please send this to those people who mean something to you to those who have touched your life in one way or another; to those who make you smile when you really need it; to those who make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down; to those whose friendship you appreciate; to those who are so meaningful in your life. If you don't send it, don't worry, nothing bad will happen to you; you will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone's day with this message!!!

Don't count the years - count the memories...........

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take; but by the moments that take our breath away!

The Invitation

It doesn�t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart�s longing.

It doesn�t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn�t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life�s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to
be careful
be realistic
remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn�t interest me if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
�Yes.�

It doesn�t interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn�t interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn�t interest me where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.

Woah...what a beautiful "Mission Statement" for Life...

Thanks so much for sharing this...it will certainly be passed on...

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was na�ve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself.

Hi Airmid! Greetings from Utah! We love this thread of Inspirational Thoughts! We read and ponder them both morning and night. Keep up the good work! Today's Inspirational Thought is from the writings of Gordon B. Hinckley: "Spare yourselves from the indulgence of self-pity. It is always self-defeating. Subdue the negative and emphasize the positive. Count your blessings and not your problems." We have tried both methods, counting our blessings and also counting our problems. We have found that counting our blessings makes us feel so much better! We encourage and challenge our clients to do the same for the best results. Have another great day with Quantum-Touch!

To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life.

~John Burroughs

Greetings from Utah! This Inspiration Thought is from the writings of Dr. C. Samuel West: "The laws of nature are the laws of God. Obedience is the key. The human body is an electrical being, and our health, strength and endurance depend upon the energy currents that run through the body. Where there is no energy, there is no life. To have good health, we must obey the laws of health." Have another great day with Quantum-Touch!

Some think it's holding on that makes one strong; but sometimes it's letting go.

Airmid,
Very nice! Thank you!

Greetings from Utah! These next three Inspirational Thoughts are on the value of work: 1) Thomas S. Monson: "Work will win when wishing won't." 2) Howard W. Hunter: "Our Heavenly Father loves us so completely that He has given us a commandment to work. This is one of the keys to eternal life. He knows that we will learn more, grow more, achieve more, serve more, and benefit more from a life of industry than from a life of ease." 3) John Ruskin: "When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece." Have another great day serving others with Quantum-Touch!
