Answers from God

A man was wandering in the woods,
pondering all the mysteries of life, and his
own personal problems. The man couldn't
find the answers, so he sought help from
God.
"God? Can you hear me, God?" he asked.
"Yes. What is it, my son?" God answered.
"I know you are very, very busy, but would
you mind if I ask you a few questions?" the
man asked.
"Go ahead, my son, anything."
"God, is it true that in heaven, time moves
much faster than here on earth?"
God answered, "Yes, my child, a million
years on earth seems only a second in
heaven."
The man then asked, "God, is it true that a
million dollars on earth is only a penny in
heaven?"
God replied, "Yes, that is true, a million
dollars on earth is only a penny in
heaven."
The man lifted his eyebrows and smiled, as
his final question came to mind. "God,
would you toss me a penny, please?"
God answered, "Sure! Just give me a
second."

Positive Life

"Interesting reflection of life"
Don't spend major time with minor people. If there are people in your life that
continually disappoint you, break promises, stomp on your dreams, too
judgmental, have different values and don't support you during difficult
times...that is not a friend. To have a friend, be a friend.
Sometimes in life as you grow, your friends will either grow or go.
Surround yourself with people who reflect your values, goals interests and
lifestyle. When I think of any of my successes, I am thankful to GOD from whom
all blessings flow, and to my family and friends that enrich my life.
Over the years my phone book has changed because I changed for the better.
At first you think you're going to be alone, but after a while new people
show up in your life that make your life so much sweeter and easier to
endure. Remember what your elders used to say, "Birds of a feather flock
together." If you're an eagle, don't hang around chickens: Chickens Can't Fly!
Be Positive - Be Progressive - Take the time to make a positive difference
in someone's life

Do Not

Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others
It is because we are diffrent that makes us special

Do not set your goals by what other people deem important
Only you know what is best for you

Do not take for granted the things closest to your heart
without them life will be meaningless

Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or the future
by living day by day you live every day to the fullest
The quickest way to get love is to give love
the fastest way to loose love is to hold it too tightly
Do not be afraid to encounter risks
It is by taking risks that we learn how to be brave
Do not run through life so fast that you not only forget where you have been, but also where you are going.
Do not dismiss your dreams
To be without dreams is to be without hope
To be without hope is to be without purpose

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things you
must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what
you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of
your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is
clairvoyant.

Thank you for being a part of my life.

Then, K N O W L E D G E
11 14 15 23 12 5 4 7 5 = 96 % only.
and , H A R D W O R K
8 1 18 4 23 15 18 11 = 98 % only,
But guess what ?
A T T I T U D E
