Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.

I wont say "I'll never make u cry"
But I'll make u smile before your tears get dry,
I wont say "I'll never tell u a lie"
But If I do, I do it for a reason,
some day I'll tell u why ??
I don't say "We'll never have a
fight" But I'll say I'm really sorry when I'll
realise u were right.
I don't say "Life together will be
easy & bright"
But when things get tough, I'll
hold u tight !!

A holiday is having nothing to do,
And having all day to do it in.
ITS PAYBACK TIME
We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

If the population of the earth was reduced to that of a small town with
100 people, it would look something like this:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 Americans (northern and southern)
8 Africans
52 Women and 48 Men
70 Coloured-skins and 30 Caucasians
89 Heterosexuals and 11 Homosexuals
6 people would own 59% of the whole world wealth and all of them will
be from the United States of America
80 would have bad living conditions, 70 would be uneducated and 50
underfed
1 would die and 2 would be born
1 would have a computer and 1 (only one) will have a higher education
When you look at the world from this point of view, you can see there is
a real need for solidarity, understanding, patience and education. Also
think about the following. This morning, if you woke up healthy, then
you are happier than the 1 million people that will not survive next week.
If you never suffered a war, the loneliness of the jail cell, the agony of
torture, or hunger, you are happier than 500 million people in the world.
If you can enter into a church (mosque) without fear of jail or death, you
are happier than 3 million people in the world. If there is food in your
fridge, you have shoes and clothes, you have a bed and a roof, you are
richer than 75% of the people in the world.
If you have a bank account, money in your wallet and some coins in the
money box, you belong to the 8% of the people in the world, who are
well-to-do.
If you read this you are three times blessed because:
• Somebody just thought of you.
• You don’t belong to the 200 million people that cannot read.
• And…you have a computer!
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.
Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both.
For a wounded man shall say to his assailant,
'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, You are forgiven.'
Such is the rule of honour.
Jumping at several small opportunities may get us there more quickly
than waiting for one big one to come along.

>1. First Important Lesson - Know The Cleaning Lady.
>
>During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I
was
>a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I
>read the last one: "What is the first
name
>of the woman who cleans the school?"
>
>Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman
several
>times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s,but how would I know
her
>name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just
before
>class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward
our
>quiz grade.
>
>"Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many
>people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even
>if all you do is smile and say "hello."
>
>I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.
>
>
>2. Second Important Lesson - Pickup In The Rain
>
>One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American woman was standing
on
>the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rainstorm.
Her
>car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she
>decided to flag down the next car.
>
>A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those
>conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to safety, helped her get
>assistance and put her into a taxicab.
>
>She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked
>him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his
>surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home.
>
>A special note was attached. It read: "Thank you so much for assisting
me
>on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes,
but
>also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to
make it
>to my dying husband's bedside just before he passed away. God bless you
for
>helping me and unselfishly serving others."
>Sincerely, Mrs. Nat King Cole.
>

>3. Third Important Lesson - Remember Those Who Serve.
>
>In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year-old boy
>entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table.
>A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. "How much is an ice
cream
>sundae?" he asked. "50c," replied the
>waitress.
>
>The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins
in
>it.
>
>"Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired. By now
more
>people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient.
>"35c!" she brusquely replied. The little boy again counted his coins.
"I'll
>have the plain
>ice cream," he said. The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill
on
>the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the
cashier
>and left.
>
>When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the
table.
>There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five
>pennies. You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had to have
>enough left to leave her a tip.
>
>
>4. Fourth Important Lesson - The Obstacles In Our Path.
>
>In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid
>himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some
of
>the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked
>around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear,
but
>none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.
>
>Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon
approaching
>the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the
stone
>to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally
>succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he
noticed a
>purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained
>many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was
for
>the person who removed the boulder from the roadway.The peasant learned
>what many of us never understand - "Every obstacle presents an
opportunity
>to improve our condition."
>
>
>5. Fifth Important Lesson - Giving When It Counts.
>
>Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to
know a
>little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious
>disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be
a
>blood transfusion from her 5-year-old brother, who had miraculously
>survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to
>combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little
>brother, and asked the
little
>boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him
>hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep
breath
>and saying, "Yes I'll do it if it will save her."
>As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and
smiled,
>as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face
grew
>pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a
>trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away?".
>
>Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he
was
>going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
