<div class="yiv335279744MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: scroll; background-color: white; background-image: none; background-position: 0% 0%; display: block; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 11.25pt; margin-right: 11.25pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;">If you were arrested for kindness, would there be enough evidence to convict you?<br />
It’s been said that people almost always forget what you said, and they usually forget what you did, but they never forget how you made them feel. What do you bring in to a room when you enter it that will affect the way others feel? Is it uplifting cheerfulness, optimism, or kind words -- or do you bring pessimism, criticism, sarcasm or cynicism?<br />
One of the kindest things we can do is make another person feel better. So I want to complete my trilogy on kindness by sharing with you some of my favorite quotations about this vital virtue.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"><br />
"That best portion of a good man's life: his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love"-- William Wordsworth<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"> "The everyday kindness of the back roads more than makes up for the acts of greed in the headlines". -- Charles Kuralt<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"> "Kindness is loving people more than they deserve." -- Joseph Joubert<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"> "We are made kind by being kind." -- Eric Hoffer<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"> "My religion is kindness." -- The Dalai Lama<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"> "Forget injuries; never forget kindness". -- Confucius</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"><br />
"Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment." -- Benjamin Franklin</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;"><br />
"You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late". -- Ralph Waldo Emerson<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: small;">"Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom"-- Theodore Isaac Rubin, M.D.</span></div><div class="yiv335279744MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: scroll; background-color: white; background-image: none; background-position: 0% 0%; display: block; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 11.25pt; margin-right: 11.25pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="color: #333333;">Courtesy : Michael Josephson </span></i></span></div>Kikihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09882232791057850925noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3975325784672430573.post-86472773943101950142011-06-24T08:38:00.002+01:002011-06-24T08:38:06.898+01:00What makes a Dad?<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm so sorry for my long absence.

Happiness is more than just fun or pleasure. It’s a more durable sense of well-being.</span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Our happiness depends not on what happens to us, but what happens in us. In other words, it’s the way we choose to think about our lives. <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1305793637_1">Abe Lincoln</span> said, “People are generally about as happy as they’re willing to be.” A Buddhist proverb tells us that pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. </span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">So, what are the most common attributes of happy people? Well, it’s not money, fame, or good looks. It’s not even intelligence or talent. No, the two most important factors are gratitude and rewarding personal relationships. </span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">The formula is simple: count your blessings and enjoy your family and friends.</span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Sadly, simple is not always easy. </span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">People whose natural instincts produce a gloomy outlook and pessimism need to re-train their minds. It’s one thing to say happiness is not getting what you want but wanting what you get; it’s quite another to really be satisfied with what we have.</span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">For many people, it takes discipline and practice to think positively. </span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Sometimes it’s just a matter of changing one’s perspective, choosing to see and appreciate the silver lining, the half-full glass. In other cases, what’s required is refusing to dwell on pain, disappointment, or envy, and instead force one’s mind toward good thoughts, including all the things we should be grateful for.</span></div><div class="yiv620896726MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Interestingly, the ability to maintain a <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1305793637_2">positive attitude</span> is also important in forming and sustaining meaningful relationships – seeing and bringing out the best.</span></div>Kikihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09882232791057850925noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3975325784672430573.post-816637189251768092011-05-01T21:09:00.000+01:002011-05-01T21:09:36.119+01:00I want a guy...<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Okay....i guess everyone has gotten over the pump and excitement of the Royal wedding of Prince William and now Duchess Catherine which took place last weekend. As much as I tried not to make any comments on that wedding, I can't keep up without saying a word or two, so all I'm going to say is former Ms. Kate Middleton must really feel like a Disney princess right now; having a fairy tale husband and wedding is something that only Cinderella could have and we dream of!!!</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Long before that wedding, I've always thought of the kind of guy I'd want as a <b><i>husband</i></b> [yes o, husband and not boyfriend, no time for play anymore!] and what my wedding would look like.Their wedding rekindled that thought.

<br />
He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.<br />
<br />
Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! . She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it so slowly, and then asked, How much do I owe you?"<br />
<br />
You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness."<br />
<br />
He said ... "Then I thank you from my heart."<br />
<br />
As <span><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1304275950_99" style="border-bottom: 2px dotted rgb(54, 99, 136); cursor: pointer;">Howard Kelly</span></span> left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his <span>faith in God and man</span> was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.<br />
<br />
Many year's later that same young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.<br />
<br />
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.<br />
<br />
Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.<br />
<br />
Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once.<br />
<br />
He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to her case.<br />
<br />
After a long struggle, the battle was won.<br />
<br />
Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge, and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She read these words ...<br />
<br />
"Paid in full with one glass of milk"<br />
<br />
(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly.<br />
<br />
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: "Thank You,<br />
God, that Your love has spread broad through human hearts and hands."<br />
<br />
There's a saying which goes something like this: Bread cast on the water comes back to you. The good deed you do today may benefit you or someone you love at the least expected time. If you never see the deed again at least you will have made the world a better place - And, after all, isn't that what life is all about?</span></span></b></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: black; font-family: Bradley Hand ITC;"><span style="color: black; font-weight: 700;"><br />

<br />
I wouldn't want to preach but for sometime I've been thinking on how we celebrate of festivals. Should this great season of Easter only be remembered within four days of April? Shouldn't it be a daily event? With full knowledge that the only reason Jesus was born into our world- which is why we celebrate Christmas- was to die and reconcile us to God [Easter]. Had Jesus not come into our world for his overwhelming work, our case would have been hopeless. I'd like to you to reflect on the season with these two short poems I wrote although I must admit I'm not a great poet-<br />
Easter- a short summary of my personal experience of Easter; and True Love:<br />
<br />
EASTER<br />
<br />
When I was at a loss<br />
HE left HIS Heavenly gloss<br />
to fight my cause<br />
on a shameful cross<br />
<br />
TRUE LOVE<br />
<br />
Have you ever felt such true love-<br />
like the peace of a dove from up above<br />
or the gentleness of a twilight<br />
that ushers a restful night;<br />
Could it be the happiness of a rising sun<br />
that brings forth a new morn<br />
or does it feel like the savour<br />
of living everyday in the favour<br />
of my dear Saviour<br />
But yes it is<br />
this is what I see...<br />
Only HIM and me<br />
together we'll be<br />
a good company.Kikihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09882232791057850925noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3975325784672430573.post-2043896085083229532011-04-22T14:09:00.000+01:002011-04-22T14:09:45.414+01:00WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND<div style="color: purple;"> <span style="font-size: small;"><b><u><span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"></span></u></b><b><u><span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"></span></u></b><b><span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><br />

<span>One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the</span><br />
<span>road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she</span><br />
<span>needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and</span><br />
<span>got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached</span><br />
<span>her. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No</span><br />
<span>one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he</span><br />
<span>going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and</span><br />
<span>hungry. </span><br />
<br />
<span>He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in</span><br />
<span>the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that chill which only</span><br />
<span>fear can put in you. </span><br />
<br />
<span>He said, 'I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in</span><br />
<span>the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan</span><br />
<span>Anderson.' </span><br />
<br />
<span>Well, all she had was a <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1303477250_0">flat tire</span>, but for an old lady, that</span><br />
<span>was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a</span><br />
<span>place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two.</span><br />
<span>Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty</span><br />
<span>and his hands hurt. </span><br />
<br />
<span>As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the</span><br />
<span>window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was</span><br />
<span>from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She</span><br />
<span>couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid. </span><br />
<br />
<span>Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how</span><br />
<span>much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with</span><br />
<span>her. She already imagined all the awful things that could</span><br />
<span>have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice</span><br />
<span>about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was</span><br />
<span>helping someone in need, and God knows there were</span><br />
<span>plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived</span><br />
<span>his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act</span><br />
<span>any other way. </span><br />
<br />
<span>He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the</span><br />
<span>next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give</span><br />
<span>that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added,</span><br />
<span>'And think of me.' </span><br />
<br />
<span>He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had</span><br />
<span>been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he</span><br />
<span>headed for home, disappearing into the twilight. </span><br />
<br />
<span>A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She</span><br />
<span>went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before</span><br />
<span>she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy</span><br />
<span>looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The</span><br />
<span>whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over</span><br />
<span>and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a</span><br />
<span>sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole</span><br />
<span>day couldn't erase. The lady</span><br />
<span>noticed that the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,</span><br />
<span>but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.</span><br />
<span>The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be</span><br />
<span>so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan .. </span><br />
<br />
<span>After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred</span><br />
<span>dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her</span><br />
<span>hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out</span><br />
<span>the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back.</span><br />
<span>The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she</span><br />
<span>noticed something written on the napkin. </span><br />
<br />
<span>There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady</span><br />
<span>wrote: 'You don't owe me anything. I have been there too.</span><br />
<span>Somebody once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you</span><br />
<span>really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let</span><br />
<span>this chain of love end with you.' </span><br />
<br />
<span>Under the napkin were four more $100 bills. </span><br />
<br />
<span>Well, there were</span><br />
<span>tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve,</span><br />
<span>but the waitress made it through another day. That night</span><br />
<span>when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was</span><br />
<span>thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How</span><br />
<span>could the lady have known how much she and her husband</span><br />
<span>needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be</span><br />
<span>hard.... </span><br />
<br />
<span>She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping</span><br />
<span>next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and</span><br />

The Presence of His Love<br />
courtesy:Rev. John F. Perling<br />
<br />
<br />
The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the attractive young woman with the white cane made her way carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, walked down the aisle and found the seat he'd told her was empty. Then she settled in, placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.<br />
<br />
It had been a year since Susan, thirty-four, became blind. Due to a medical misdiagnosis she had been rendered sightless, and she was suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. Once a fiercely independent woman, Susan now felt condemned by this terrible twist of fate to become a powerless, helpless burden on everyone around her.<br />
<br />
"How could this have happened to me?" she would plead, her heart knotted with anger. But no matter how much she cried or ranted or prayed, she knew the painful truth her sight was never going to return. A cloud of depression hung over Susan's once optimistic spirit. Just getting through each day was an exercise in frustration and exhaustion. And all she had to cling to was her husband Mark.<br />
<br />
Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all of his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and was determined to help his wife gain the strength and confidence she needed to become independent again. Mark's military background had trained him well to deal with sensitive situations, and yet he know this was the most difficult battle he would ever face.<br />
<br />
Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but was now too frightened to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to drive her to work each day, even though they worked at opposite ends of the city. At first, this comforted Susan and fulfilled Mark's need to protect his sightless wife who was so insecure about performing the slightest task.<br />
<br />
Soon, however, Mark realized that this arrangement wasn't working - it was hectic, and costly. Susan is going to have to start taking the bus again, he admitted to himself. But just the thought of mentioning it to her made him cringe. She was still so fragile, so angry. How would she react?<br />
<br />
Just as Mark predicted, Susan was horrified at the idea of taking the bus again. "I'm blind!" she responded bitterly. "How am I supposed to know where I'm going? I feel like you're abandoning me."<br />
<br />
Mark's heart broke to hear these words, but he knew what had to be done. He promised Susan that each morning and evening he would ride the bus with her, for as long as it took, until she got the hang of it. And that is exactly what happened.<br />
<br />
For two solid weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat. He made her laugh, even on those not-so-good days when she would trip exiting the bus, or drop her briefcase.<br />
<br />
Each morning they made the journey together, and Mark would take a cab back to his office. Although this routine was even more costly and exhausting than the previous one, Mark knew it was only a matter of time before Susan would be able to ride the bus on her own. He believed in her, in the Susan he used to know before she'd lost her sight, who wasn't afraid of any challenge and who would never, ever quit.<br />
<br />
Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. Monday morning arrived, and before she left, she threw her arms around Mark, her temporary bus riding companion, her husband, and her best friend. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, his love. She said good-bye, and for the first time, they went their separate ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and Susan had never felt better. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!<br />
<br />
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was paying for her fare to exit the bus, the driver said, "Boy, I sure envy you." Susan wasn't sure if the driver was speaking to her or not. After all, who on earth would ever envy a blind woman who had struggled just to find the courage to live for the past year? Curious, she asked the driver, "Why do you say that you envy me?"<br />
<br />
The driver responded, "It must feel so good to be taken care of and protected like you are." Susan had no idea what the driver was talking about, and asked again, "What do you mean?"<br />
<br />
The driver answered, "You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a little salute and walks away. You are one blessed lady."<br />
<br />
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. For although she couldn't physically see him, she had always felt Mark's presence. She was blessed, so blessed, for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe - the gift of love that can bring light where there had been darkness.<br />
<br />
God watches over us in just the same way. We may not know He is present. We may not be able to see His face, but He is there nonetheless! Be blessed in this thought: "God Loves You - even when you are not looking."<br />

While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Senator was tragically hit by a car and died. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so<br />
we're not sure what to do with you."<br />
"No problem, just let me in," says the Senator..<br />
"Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from the higher ups.<br />
What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where<br />
to spend eternity."<br />
"Really?, I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven,"says the Senator.<br />
"I'm sorry, but we have our rules." And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.<br />
The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.<br />
Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people. They played a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and the finest champagne.<br />
Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes.<br />
They are all having such a good time that before the Senator realizes it, it is time to go. Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises... The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him, "Now it's time to visit heaven.." So, 24 hours passed with the Senator joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.<br />
"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose your eternity." The Senator reflects for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell."<br />
So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.. Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above. The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulders. "I don't understand" stammers the Senator. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland<br />
full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"<br />
The devil smiles at him and says, "Yesterday WE were campaigning. Today, YOU have voted.." <br />
