Most Valued

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless
swamps of the approximate, the not quite, the not at all. Do not let the
hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but
have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.

Life

Many perspectives of life come as an integral part of you. You are guided, guarded and groomed by these canonical materials. Man has the courage to conquer and defeat fear. And once you dare your defeats, the world welcomes you with rigor and vigor. 

Consequences of your battles sharpen your mind, shape your attitude and reward you with the orientation to tackle junctures. Patches of bright and dull moods must decorate your wrappings and ultimately set your mind towards the awaited destinations as if we are engraving milestones, smoothly highlighting our skills to live the journey. 

Every moment is once, every picture is once, and every heartbeat is once. So live for the present and just come alive. THIS LIFE IS ONCE.

Conquering Fear

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world.

There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Basic Fact

Once you have smiled at someone you can't take it back. 


Once you have held the tiny hand of a new born child and the frail, weak hand of an elderly soul with his one last breath, you cannot possibly justify wasting another moment of your own life. Life is not just a beginning and an end it is how you live it in between. 


Once you have stood on the edge of mentally spent, physically exhausted, and financially drained you have every right to say, "I quit!" But follow that by shouting "Now you take over God!" Then watch what He can do with spent, exhausted and drained. 


Once you have seen a sunrise and a sunset , you know that God has kept His promise and has every day of your life. Have you kept yours? 


Once you have said "I will" then you must follow through. "I will" is your word, not a "maybe." 


Once you have more, you must give more to those who have less. 


Once you have anything, you must give thanks. 


Once you have nothing, you must give thanks, too. It's not just in having that we should be grateful. Just being alive is a gift, too. 


Once you have stood in awe looking at the stars you realize how incredibly special you must be. For in all the universe there is only one "you." But realize that the universe is looking back in awe at you, too. All of God's creation is "Awe-some!" 


Once you have heard the old man tell the story for what seems like the "hundredth" time, be happy if he lives to tell it to you a hundred more times. One day you will wish he were there to tell it again. 


Once you have faith, you can never give into the power of doubt. Faith builds, doubt destroys. 


 Be Reasonable and don't give up your dream.
