You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind… let it be something good. _________________________ Quote For Today: “Life is too short. Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Laugh when you can, apologize when you should and let go of what you can’t change. Love deeply and forgive quickly. Take chances. Give everything and have no regrets. Life is too short to be unhappy. You have to take the good with the bad. Smile when you’re sad, love what you got, and always remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes but never regret. People change, and things go wrong but always remember… life goes on!” _________________________ Quote For Today: True humor is fun, it does not put down, kid, or mock. It makes people feel wonderful, not separate, different, and cut off. True humor has beneath it the understanding that we are all in this together. Hugh Prather _________________________ Quote For Today: Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. Thomas A. Edison _________________________ Quote For Today: “If I were given the opportunity to present a gift to the next generation, it would be the ability for each individual to learn to laugh at himself.” — Charles Schulz _________________________ Quote For Today: When you are kind to someone in trouble, you hope they’ll remember and be kind to someone else. And it’ll become like a wildfire. Whoopi Goldberg _________________________ Quote For Today: Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it. Bill Cosby _________________________ Quote For Today: Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself, and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross _________________________ Quote For Today: You are not here merely to make a living. You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world. You impoverish yourself if you forget this errand. — Woodrow Wilson _________________________ Quote For Today: Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle. Phillips Brooks _________________________ “I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint – and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.” Oprah Winfrey _________________________ Quote For Today: By learning to discover and value our ordinariness, we nurture a friendliness toward ourselves and the world that is the essence of a healthy soul. Thomas Moore _________________________ Quote For Today: None of us is defined by our circumstances, nor are we defined by how other people perceive us. It is up to each one of us to define ourselves, and that is a life’s work. Each of us has the ability to lead a dynamic life by pursuing our unique goals and dreams. There are no limits to what you can do. Stedman Graham _________________________ Quote For Today: “Live life and take chances. Believe that everything happens for a reason and don’t regret. Love to the fullest and you will find true happiness in life. Realize that things go wrong and people change, but things do go on. Sometimes things weren’t meant to be. What is supposed to happen will work its way out.” _________________________ Quote For Today: Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been. Hilary Clinton _________________________ Quote For Today: Love has no desire but to fulfill itself. To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving. Khalil Gibran _________________________ Quote For Today: Forgiveness … is the finishing of old business that allows us to experience the present, free of contamination from the past. Joan Borysenko _________________________ Quote For Today: “I believe that everything happens for a reason, people change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so that eventually you learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together!” Marilyn Monroe _________________________ Quote For Today: “Love is not about finding the right person, but creating a right relationship. It’s not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build till the end.” Author unknown _________________________ if you know of someone who would like to join Mama’s Corner, please contact me at: mamas-corner-owner@yahoogroups.com]]>
