A GIFT :)

GROW OLD WITH ME…..

As I look back at the chapters of my life

What comes to the face is an amazed smile

And then as I bring forth my eyes to the present

The scene turns even more pleasant

As u are now a part of my life so real

Yet it all seems surreal.

Never thought one could dream a person into one’s life

But now looking at u I know it’s a possible strike

As we share our dreams all so alike

Our thoughts so beautiful make us both smile.

Then as u pop the question, the one from ur heart

Bent down on a knee under the stars

Ur love evident as the twinkle in ur eye

A little on the edge, a little shy

I look at you in this moment

My heart’s feelings I send summon

To answer another heart’s question

Finally the words come forth, pure as a sermon…

Yes my dear is the reply

As I stand there demure and shy

True my visions of love have become

Grow old with me the best is yet to come

Great Minds Great Thoughts....

A few thoughts that struck me in recent times and a few that have for a long time :)....

Herodotus:
Some give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; while others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before.

Louis Pasteur:
Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal: my strength lies solely in my tenacity.

Marian Wright Edelman:
You're not obligated to win. You're obligated to keep trying to do the best you can every day.

Ovid:
Let your hook always be cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish.

Thomas Alva Edison:
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.

Joan of Arc:
One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

Joan of Arc :
I am not afraid... I was born to do this.

Charles Spurgeon :
By perseverance the snail reached the ark.

DREAMS....

Nice little poster I came across my cousin's house......

HOW TO MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE ...and not just talk about them:

• Listen to your heart , its always honest
• Hold dear your desires, miracles start within you
• Make promises, keep them true
• Stand up for happiness, it makes each day worth living
• Claim your ground , establish a creative corner of the world
• Take small steps , they multiply into huge leaps
• Stay on path, focus on your direction
• Share with others, we are each a source of inspiration
• Take action, you help others to live creatively
• Reward yourself, there is nothing like a self hug
