If a man empties his purse into his head, no man can take it from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.

Love your Profession..

Our profession is the source of our living where we get the bread and butter that is essential for survival. It's too bad that when we go to work and we don't love it, especially in our profession. If we are not excited every morning about getting into the room with all these little kids with their bright eyes waiting for you to help them get to that table, then we must get out of education to do no harm in molding the future of the kids. Find another way or job that you would think would fit in your desire and wants. There are other things that you can do, but let the children alone.
Every one need to be recognized in what she/he doing, because life is continuous relating. Learn to appreciate and praise because that is the only way that you could make someone glad without  giving him anything.

Fantastic Statement

It doesn't matter who you have hurt, if you've learned not to hurt again. It doesn't matter what mistakes you've made as long as you don't make them again. As long as you learn, as long as you're willing to take life in your hands, and kiss it and go from there. Then there is growth. Then there is life.
Forgive yourself for not being perfect. And accept the responsibility for your own life.

Accept Who we Are..


   Stop hating yourself. Stop running yourself down. Put your arms around yourself and say, “You know, you’re all right! You may be losing your hair, but you’re all I’ve got!”
When you make peace with your weakness, you’ve made it! They’re not big, they just a small part of you.
   You’ve got to choose yourself. I’m sure the people who take their lives, who don’t live, are basically those who have no feeling of self respect. I don’t know when the last time was that anybody told you this, but I want to stress it: You are a miracle.

Don't worry with less..

  Buddha once made an incredible statement. He said, “The less you have, the less you have to worry about.” Everyone says, “Oh, yes, that’s so true.” Yet we collect and we collect and we collect. We have things in our cupboards we haven’t used in a thousand years. The dishes that mother bought for us over the Mayflower-put them out! It is an insult who made them to keep them locked in the cupboards. Use them-that’s what they made for, too. Nothing is forever.

Investment for Life

"Life needs investment before it yields interest. Never surrender if the circumstances and situations are not according to what you desired. This is perhaps your effort and investment period in Life has tenure. The time your investment tenure is complete, you will be rewarded with interest for the years you invested.”

What Do You See?

   An economist was asked to talk to group of business people. She tacked up a big sheet of white paper. Then she drew a black spot on the paper and asked a man in the front row what she saw.
   The man answered promptly, “A black spot.”
   The speaker asked every person in the room the same question and each replied, “A black spot.”
   With calm and deliberate emphasis, the speaker then said, “Yes, there is a little black spot, but none of you mentioned the big sheet of white paper. And that’s speech.”

Seeing Dirt

   The estate of the Duke of Devonshire in England contains many priceless paintings and is open to the public. One day a group of people were moving through the spacious rooms admiring the paintings. One woman never spoke a word but would repeatedly go close to a picture and examine it very carefully. After the tour someone asked what she thought of it all.
   “It was perfect,” she said, with real enthusiasm, “I could not find a speck of dust anywhere.”
   How often we miss the beauty of life because we are so intent on looking for faults.

IF I COULD ONLY DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN

           Anyone celebrating any birthday beyond seventy is repeatedly pestered with the usual question, “What was the secret of your long life?”
            An elderly nun, Sister Ruth, was asked, “What would you do if you had a chance to do it all over again?”
            She said, “As you see, I’m a nun. As such, I belong to a group of orderly, organized people who live a regular and healthy life. So that’s what I did, too. But there were times when I had my silly moments. And if I could do it all over again, I would like to have more of those silly moments. In other words, the next time around, I would not do much planning. I would leave more to chance. You know, I’m one of those people who carry around a thermometer, hot water bottle and raincoat-just in case. The next time around, I would leave all the gear at home. I would get up before dawn and walk barefoot in the dewy grass. I would take ride or two on a merry-to-round. And I would not trouble my head about what anyone else thought about it.”
            What this gray-haired Sister was saying was: “I’d trust in God more…. And leave most of the running of my life to him.”
