QUOTES FOR TODAY
POSITIVE QUOTES AND THOUGHTS

Just because something needs to be said doesn't mean it needs to be said THAT WAY. Think it over, say it better!

Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.

Everybody has a superpower and a kryptonite. One has impact, the other keeps you humble. Just don't let one overpower the other.

When we are happy, we enjoy the music; but when we are troubled, we understand the lyrics.

Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it for you.

If you want great results, you must be "all in." Otherwise, don't bother trying to get in at all.

Each difficult moment has the potential to open my eyes and open my heart.

When you don't need to impress anyone, you are free to enjoy everything you do.

Be free with your compliments. Today, find someone you can build up and encourage.

Learn from the past,

prepare for the future,

but live in the present.

You are valuable--you matter! The greatest thing you'll ever do is to consistently believe & live with that conviction!

In the end, a person is only known by the impact they have on others.

Whoever angers you, controls you!

Don't let your habits stand between you & what you want!

Enthusiasm releases the drive to carry you over obstacles and adds significance to all you do.

"Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tires, a touch that never hurts."

What you don't confront you cannot conquer.

When one door closes another opens.

Fear of the unknown kills the creative power that comes from curiosity!

"The way we see the problem is the problem."

Never forget the people who believed in you when you didn't believe in yourself.

When you make decisions based on greed or fear they are almost always bad decisions

Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it.

Don't let seeds of doubt take root in your thoughts; they will produce weeds that will choke out your blessing

Happy people continuously evaluate and improve themselves...

Unhappy people continuously evaluate others!

Choose to have an attitude of gratitude, today and every day.

Devoting a little of yourself to everything means committing a great deal of yourself to nothing.

Let your HOPES, not your HURTS, shape your future!

Whenever we are greeted by any circumstance/situation/event (be it positive or negative), it's not the circumstance/situation/event that will determine the outcome we get but rather our response to it."

If you're facing any difficulties in your life right now, just remember that our God is a Good God and that He will turn things around for you, just like what He's doing for me. All you have to do is ASK him for the wisdom and favor.

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you.
And though they are with you, they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts.
For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
Which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite.
And He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let your bending in the archer's hands be for happiness;

For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
So He loves the bow that is stable.

Khalil Gibran

Here are six terrific truths about time:

First: Nobody can manage time. But you can manage those things that take up your time.

Second: Time is expensive. As a matter of fact, 80 percent of our day is spent on those things or those people that only bring us two percent of our results.

Third: Time is perishable. It cannot be saved for later use.

Fourth: Time is measurable. Everybody has the same amount of time...pauper or king. It is not how much time you have; it is how much you use.

Fifth: Time is irreplaceable. We never make back time once it is gone.

Sixth: Time is a priority. You have enough time for anything in the world, so long as it ranks

THE TONGUE CAN BE YOUR WORST ENEMY!
Your words, your dreams, and your thoughts have power to create conditions in your life.
What you speak about, you can bring about.
If you keep saying you can't stand your job, you might lose your job.
If you keep saying you can't stand your body, your body can become sick.
If you keep saying that you are sick or ill, guess what you will stay sick or ill.
If you keep saying you can't stand your car, your car could be stolen or just stop operating.
If you keep saying you're broke, guess what? You'll always be broke.
If you keep saying you can't trust a man or trust a woman, you will always find someone in your life to hurt and betray you. If you keep saying you can't find a job, you will remain unemployed.
If you keep saying you can't find someone to love you or believe in you. Your very thought will attract more experiences to confirm your beliefs

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"If you look at what you have in life,
you'll always have more.
If you look at what you don't have in life,
you'll never have enough."

Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout.
- Do you know why a Car's WINDSHIELD is so large & the Rearview Mirror is so small?
Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. Look Ahead and
Move on.

Often when we lose hope and think it is the end, GOD smiles from above and says,

"Relax, Dear Child, it's just a bend, not the end! l

When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.
When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you!
WORRYING does not take away tomorrows' TROUBLES, it takes away today's' PEACE.

"Your best friend is he who brings out the best that is within you." Our best friends are those who do more than simply

like us. They also believe in us. They support us but, occasionally, they nudge us as well.

Someone put it well: "A friend is someone who knows you as you are, understands where you've been, accepts who you've become, and still, gently invites you to grow."

I think it is time to gather a few more BEST FRIENDS - What do you think?

When life delivers lemons - get out your juicer !

Any road to recovery is as long as you decide to travel on it.

Because death and life are in the power of the tongue, we have to be extremely careful with our words and only say what we want and not that which we do not want.

The more I love is the more that I am loved and the more I am love is the more I want to love.

To The World You Might Be One Person;
But To One Person You Might Be the World.

When you are in a race for quality, you must realize that there is no finish line, so keep pressing on.

Excellence should not only be an action that is carried out once, but should become a habit and a lifestyle.

Anything that you do not shoot for, you will be guaranteed to miss.

Technology is on the rise but trust should always be the top issue.

Right up there with an attitude of gratitude is an attitude of service.

Today, I will make an extra effort to pursue the things that catch my heart and not just the things that may catch my eyes.

People are important in every step of your journey of life and people do not get interested in how much you know until they absolutely can feel how much you care.

You will never discover the beauty of the horizon if you keep staring at the shoreline.

So, be careful what you plant now;

Think about this for a minute....

They see things together, and

They sleep together,

But they never see each other;

That's what friendship is

Your aspiration is your motivation,

Your motivation is your belief,

Your belief is your peace,

Your peace is your target,

Your target is heaven,

What makes me weak? My fears......

What makes me whole? My God.

What keeps me standing? My faith.

What makes me compassionate? My selflessness..

What makes me honest? My integrity.

What sustains my mind? My quest for knowledge.

What teaches me all lessons? My mistakes.

What lift's my head high? My pride, not arrogance.

What if I can't go on? Not an option..

What makes me victorious? My courage to climb.

What makes me competent? My confidence .

What makes me sensual? My insatiable essence..

What makes me beautiful? My everything.

What makes me a woman? My heart .

Who says I need love? I do.

What empowers me? My God & Me.

Who am I? I AM KIRALINA ( still learning to maintain being)

A PROUD STRONG WOMAN!

So, be careful what you plant now;

Think about this for a minute....

Today is a great day - just the fact that I am still here to be a part of it.

Stop fretting and start feasting on opportunities that are right in front of you.

It is not at all your concern what other people think about you, be careful that you think well of others. What you wish for someone could be yours in an instant. So think only good thoughts - practice makes perfect.

Some folk chase after success and we have blessings chasing after us.!!

When someone keeps stepping on your toes, remember that they will soon get uncomfortable and move elsewhere.

Worrying wrinkles the brow and confuses the thoughts.

Redeem the time,do not waste a single minute, you can never get it back.

Perserverance is born and bred with a strong "will" and Stubborness with a stronger "won't" - It is all dependant on what you 'will' and what you 'won't'

Try to be more loving and less unkind PPP p.

We have to learn the method of balancing peace in the midst of turmoil, calm in the noise of stress, joy in the throes of pain in an attempt to capture the essence of living in its true meaning.

Rest is absolutely necessary if we have to sustain health and peace of mind.

As soon as giving thanks becomes automatic, focusing on the positive will follow suite and life will begin to take on a new and exciting meaning.

A heart filled with love is a home for your God and a home filled with love demonstrates whose home is in your heart

Each day, we must try to let our deeds be in accordance with our words, or we may all have to become mutes in the event that it is said that we do not practice what we preach !!!!!!!

Here is a suggested gift list that does not need a special day or season, but can and should be given at each opportunity that presents itself:

- wisdom to him that is foolish

-strength to the one that is week

-forgiveness to him that has hurt you (no matter how often)

- love to those who blatantly demonstrate hatred

- peace to those who stir up strife

- tolerance to those who insist on being an opponent

- all you have knowing that it will be replaced

- a good and honorable example to those around you (wherever you are) and especially to a child)

.........have a good day..........

He who enjoys health is rich, even if he is unaware of it.

If you have health, enjoy it and value it next to a good conscience, for money cannot purchase it.

He that respects not is not respected!!!!!!

Nothing is ever lost by courtesy,it is one of the most inexpensive gifts, it actually costs nothing, just a desire to be nice to someone else. It is a pleasure to give and a greater pleasure to recieve and we ought to use it often.

It is better to be considered indecisive and uncertain, than to promise and not deliver - try this year to promise LESS and deliver MORE !!!!!!

I strive to be a realist with my confidence in God rather than to be an optimist or a pessimist as they both can cause you pain.

When you do a good deed FORGET it and when a good deed is done to you REMEMBER it !!!!

REMEBER the blessing and FORGET the small irritations . Do not MAJOR in the MINORS !!!

Whenever FEAR knocks, send FAITH to answer and FIND that no one is there. (LOL)

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011 - MAY THIS BE THE BEST YOU EVER HAD

A man (or woman) is only complete when he/she has a true friend that understands, one with whom you can share all your pass and sorrow and will still stand by you throughout your life......

If someone is not keeping pace with his companions, it is probably because they are hearing a different drummer. Allow everyone to step to the music they hear, however measured or far away.

MAN is forced to be alone by the very nature of society. If you, however, if you meet a person who is not envious, who loves and believes in other than himself or herself, then to this rare person, offer a lifetime of friendship... S. Schultz

It is not easy to follow the world's opinions, it is easy in solitude, to follow our own; but the great man or woman is the one, who in the midst of the crowd, keeps with perfect sweetness, the independence of solitude. R.W. Emerson

When everything's coming your way,You're in the wrong lane.

Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.

You may be only one person in the world,but you may also be the world to one person.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colours, but they all have to live in the same box.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Accept that some days you're the pigeon, And some days you're the statue.

Always keep your words soft and sweet,Just in case you have to eat them.

Always wear stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be "Recalled" by their maker.

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again,It was probably worth it.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to be kind to others.

Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time,Because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

Nobody cares if you can't dance well.Just get up and dance and continue dancing as if no one is around.

One day a young lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm. The young lady asked her father what should she do, he said "keep driving". Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse. What should I do the young lady asked, "keep driving" her father replied. On up a few feet she noticed eighteen wheelers was pulling over also. She told her dad, “I must pull over I can barely see ahead. It is terrible out here everyone is pulling over.” Her father told her not to give up just keep driving. Now the storm was terrible but she never stopped driving and soon she could see a little clearer. After a couple of miles she was on dry land and the sun was out. Her father said, “Now pull over and get out.” She said "but why now?" He said "Get out and look back at all the people that gave up and are still in the storm. You never gave up and now your storm is over.”

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.

Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil; without saying A word.

In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.

Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.

Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity: boiling water. Each reacted differently.

The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak.

The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its insides became hardened.

The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.

Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?

Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat? Did I have a fluid spirit? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean ? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor.

If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you. When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity?

Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;

they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can't go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.

Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

June - too soon, July - stand by , August - come it must, September - remember, October - ALL OVER.

that is a limerick they use in the islands to help you know when to expect the storms. but for everyday living, we have to take one day at a time and be happy when you can say, I am alive

Today is August 16th 2010 (in case you forgot)

Above all else, guard your heart; for it is the wellspring of life. Put away perversity from your mouth; keep corrupt talk far from your lips. Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. Make level paths for your feet and take only ways that are firm. Do not swerve to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil."

Live your best life today - do whatever you have to do with everything you`ve got - inspire yourself and someone else with hope - say something positive about yourself and about everyone else - whatever you give, you will receive multiplied, so make it good -talk less and listen more - make a difference for the better in everything you do and say today - it will never come back - you have only once chance, use it wisely.

Dare to do what you love and overcome the emotional and mental blocks that are based on fear and your success will be much easier to achieve.

Shape your destiny and decide to do only what you enjoy. Disregard the obstacles. Remember that the greatest barrier to success is Yourself!

POWER is simply -

Today is a brand new day and a brand new opportunity to dance and sing and live and love and laugh as these days will soon be gone. Make memories while you have the time

The ultimate measure of a person is not where they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where they stand at times of challenge and controversy." Dr. Martin Luther King Jr" "I look to a day when people will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but the content of their character." Dr Martin Luther King Jr"

'Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets,

so love the people who treat you right,

forget about the ones who don't, and

believe that everything happens for a reason.

If you get a chance, take it.

If it changes your life, let it.

Nobody said life would be easy, they just

promised it would be worth it.'----Harvey Mackay

hey it is already August 2010 - Time is going quickly - do what you want to do and do it well.

TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE

Keep promises that you make and make only promises that you can keep.

What people think of you does not define who you are and should not dictate what you do, unless it makes you a better person.

It is not about how long you wait, but what you do while you are waiting - Redeem the time!

Happy moments, praise God.
- Difficult moments, seek God.
- Quiet moments, worship God.
- Painful moments, trust God.
- Every moment, thank God.

A man’s mind plans his way, but the

Lord directs his steps and makes them sure.
— Proverbs 16:9

YOU CAN HAVE ALL THAT YOU DESIRE IF YOUR DESIRE INCLUDES OTHERS BEING HELPED AND WHEN YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE, YOU WILL RECEIVE EVEN MORE THAN YOU HOPED AND DESIRED TO HAVE - THE KEY IS TO BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE IT BEFORE YOU RECEIVE IT.

When you help someone, you guarantee that you are being helped and prospered during the process.

A grateful heart has lots of place for love,joy and friendship to bloom.

Today let us focus our energies toward the activities that will lead to the accomplishment of all our goals.

FROM NOW ON - I WILL INCLUDE QUOTES WITHOUT THE DATES

June 3rd - June 11th

When you cannot forgive others, you break the bridge over which you yourself must one day cross, so forgive others so that you can be forgiven and be free.

Life is a journey filled with roads that wind, some that go straight and some that seem to have no end, some with sharp turns, U-turns and many detours and much road work.

For the next ten days - we will be doing one of our journeys in life that we have never before taken - we are on our way to Jamaica for the Ochorios Jazz Festival and we intend with the grace of God to help us and protect us, to have a grand time and spread the gospel message even through the vehicle of a Jazz festival.

It is not what we do, but how we do it and there are many different ways to let people know and introduce them to the beliefs we hold dearly.

SEE YOU WHEN WE RETURN !!!!!!!

June 3rd

When you are going on a journey, always know the exact destination you desire to reach and the average time you would like to get there.

Always leave some space and time for some unplanned events and situations, but be always aware of where you want to be and when you

want to arrive. Take along some extra for emergenices, they could appear unannounced! Be Ready!

June 2nd

Always appreciate what someone else has or can do in a different way to the way you do that same thing.

We are all unique and must appreciate differences in each other.

If all the flowers in the world were the same colour and size and style and shape, all bouquets will eventually be so boring.

Difference is good - let us encourage one another.

June 1st -

Imitation is the best form of flattery but it can also be extremely annoying - Get your own ideas and feel the sense of accomplishment after you realize that it came directly from your innermost being and not someone else's. Copying always makes you second best, because you are not the original.

From the 23rd to the 31st May, we list things that a daily survival kit should contain. Put them in a separate bag and reflect on them every now and then - you are going to start being a little different and a lot happier and happier to be around. Try it!!!

May 30^th

Retrieve a Rubber band ... to remind you to be flexible. Things might not always go the way you want, but it can be worked out.

May29th

Bag a Band-Aid ... to remind you to heal hurt feelings, either yours or someone else's.

May 28th

Don’t Exclude an Eraser ... to remind you everyone makes mistakes. That's okay, we learn by our errors.

May 27th

Catch a Candy Kiss ... to remind you everyone needs a hug or a compliment everyday.

May26th

Mix in a Mint ... to remind you that you are worth a mint to your family & Me.

May 25th

Buy a pack of Bubble Gum ... to remind you to stick with it and you can accomplish anything.

May 24th

Pack a Pencil ... to remind you to list your blessings every day.

May 23^rd

Take a Tea Bag ... to remind you to take time to relax daily and go over that list of God's blessings.

This is what makes life worth living every minute, every day

Take a Toothpick ... to remind you to pick the good qualities in everyone, including yourself.

22nd May

Some minds are like concrete, thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.

21st May

Silence is quite often misunderstood, but it can never be misquoted. Stay silent more often and stop heartache

20th May

Every time you get angry, you actually affirm that you desire to have more anger in your life; Every time you feel like a victim, you affirm that you desire to continue to be victimized during your life.

Do you feel that life is not giving you all that you want in your world? That is a sure way of never ever having what you want in your world.

So turn yourself around, hold your head high, stick your chest out and declare all that you are and want to be and start living your dream.

Forget the hating and the jealousy, it makes the object of your hatred and jealousy soar higher to their goals - stop wasting time and focus on you and what you want in your life

It could take about 6 years to become an Overnight Success. Keep working and be passionate about all you do.

HAVE A GREAT DAY

19th May

Do you ever begin a conversation with a complaint? Every complaint is an affirmation of the things you do not want in your life, however, you are giving life to them by speaking them, as death and life are in the power of the tongue. So stop saying what you do not want and say what you want - good or bad - it will be made manifest.

18th May 2010

Have you ever realized how important life is and how much more important, what you do with every second that you get and even more so with every second chance that is given to you.

Sit quietly and reflect on all that you would like to happen in your future, think of it lovingly and longingly, then pray and meditate and ask for ways in which you can be proactive in making that which you desire, come to pass.

Do not question yourself on whether you deserve it or not, because the answers will all be negative, because we are designed no, we have been programmed to think negatively, but you become what you think, so think smart, happy, big, wise, gracious, generous, abundant, healthy thoughts and watch them begin to manifest in your life.

You cannot undo what you did yesterday, but you can be careful and chose what you do today and forget about tomorrow until it comes, if it comes, live, laugh and love and give as much as you can today and you will be blessed for it.

Have a good one and share it with someone you love a lot and even someone you do not love as much.

Hey - I gave you a ten-day break and I am regrouping again.

May 8th

The value of a man or woman resides in what he or she gives, not in what they are capable of receiving

May 07 (these were too good not to share - so you will get them all in the next few days

The ugliest personality trait......................Selfishness

The most endangered species...................Dedicated leaders

The greatest "shot in the arm"..................Encouragement
The greatest problem to overcome......... ....Fear

Most effective sleeping pill........... ...Peace of mind

May 06

Let go if you want to receive; holding on to something that does not want to be held will cause friction; let it go, if it was meant to be, it will return in the appointed time; you will be ready and willing to appreciate what is truly yours.

May 05

Happiness is a choice and when you chose it for yourself, many other people share in it. You cannot purchase it at the grocery store and it is never 'on sale' you have to decide that you need it and pursue it and retain it while sharing it around.

May 04

Sometimes getting lost is a doorway to finding yourself. Take the time , next time to embrace a delay , it could be the setup to overcome a set-back.

May 03

Do not render evil for evil, but love those that hurt and disappoint you and you will get it back from another source. Loving is easy - ask a baby.

May 02

Never take anyone or anything for granted ; appreciation is one of the best ingredients for longevity in many things. Use it lavishly but make sure it is the truth.

May 01

Spring has sprung and there is new budding and new growth, but with all the newness, the old debris is showing if it was not cleaned up before the winter; just so with our lives, we have to try to clean up before we begin anew because at some point, it will show up when you least expect or want it to. Life has many stages and changes and we have to be always in a state of expectancy and preparedness. This is going to be a great month. Enjoy!

April 30th

April is a WRAP - another month is gone - from April fools to honesty day - yes in America people celebrate today as honesty day - doing something for the welfare of your soul and the world "at large" and being honest in all you do today - which is something you should be doing every day anyway.

April 29th

When you hear of something that someone has said about something you have done, as long as the details are correct, there is no need to defend what you have done, if what you have done is what you wanted to do and maybe enjoyed doing, it may not be what someone else will applaud or even acknowledge, but you did it and as long as no one was hurt or maligned or misrepresented in what you did, call it 'done' and move on.

April 28th

When you feel that everyone is doubting or blaming you, keep your head high, your thoughts in place and your feet on the ground and stand up for your rights, even when it means backing down and backing off.

April 27th

The only person you need to impress is yourself. Make sure that you show you the best you and that you can look at yourself at any time and feel that you have done your best with what you have and you have a sense of satisfaction. Do not allow anyone to dictate who or what you want to be;just choose well.

April 26th

Have you ever thought about being the first to do something really special for someone else? Let us all together for one day per week, think of someone whose life you can enhance by doing them a special favor, a gift, an errand, a call, an email or email response, a small treat , a kind word, of maybe just a smile - with time running away it seems, do all you can to make a change and be the sunshine on a cloudy day.

April 25 th

Be someone's hero today - do something for someone that you wanted someone to do for you and then do something that you have never done before and enjoy doing it and do it the best you know how, it makes it easier the next time.

April 24th

Women are the special threads in the tapestry of life,the salt that gives flavor, the fragrance that dispells the odour of fear, the balm that soothes the sting of pain, and the calm for every storm .

April 23rd

Redeem the time, which is something that you can never get back and with that you can also never retrieve the spoken word and the lost opportunity. Be wise in utilizing every minute of every day.

April 22nd.

You never get a second chance to make a first impression, so prepare in advance and execute with a spirit of excellence and determination.

April 21st

Not what you say, but how you say it, not what you do , but how you do it,

Its not about life, but all about how you live it.

Live as an example that others will want to emulate.

April 20th

Make sure we put a WOW in every tomorrow that we have by doing some of the following;

Wishing someone joy and peace and happy things and know that when you share your faith, that you have given everything.

Doing something for someone and not letting on that you did. That is most gratifying.

Dance, laugh, sing as much as you can and as often as you can - by yourself or with others.

and you do not have to be perfect - you just have to enjoy.

Forgive and know that it is a blessing for the forgiver and the forgiven.

HAVE A BLESSED AND PEACEFUL DAY.

FAST FORWARD TO APRIL 20TH - WHY? THE WEBMASTER WAS EXTREMELY BUSY AND GOT A PASS FOR ONE WEEK SO WE ARE NOW BACK ON TRACK.

April 12th

The trees are budding and some tulips are peaking through - Spring is in the air.

Remember the book of Life is written in chapters, check out your page and remember the number.

Do not trouble trouble, until trouble troubles you.

Walk by faith and not by sight.

Do not look at the bigness of your circumstances, rather look at the bigness of your God.

You are never alone, He promised that HE will never leave or forsake.

Trust and obey, there is no other way............

April 11th

- Honestly try to heal misunderstandings

- Make a strong effort to drain off grievances

- Work hard at liking people and then it will become automatic.

- Develop spiritual depth and then share it with others

April 6th

Some things that you give, you get back automatically, some others you give and you do not wish to receive again, some others you give and you want to have it passed along forever. Choose well what you share and with whom.

Silence is golden and speech is silver

Friendship is a golden chain that binds two friends together and if you do not break that chain, we will be friends forever.

April 5th

Getting along with people can be easy when you do some of these:

A friend in need is one in deed.

The way of the transgressor is extremely difficult.

As you make your bed - so you will lie in it

The early bird gets the sweetest worm

April 2nd

What a blessing to be alive - if you live in Montreal, the weather is crazy warm - feeling like the middle of summer 27 deg. - so I think it is safe to say we are experiencing the effects of global warming.

We still have to be at peace - so here are some tips to tranquility (triple t)

Have peace with little instead of being miserable with plenty.

Have joy in obscurity instead of being wretched with wealth and fame.

Be happy in the midst of suffering and not have agony in good health.

Be content during times of lack and not unhappy with riches,

Be calm and at peace even in the midst of persecution instead of being unhappy and defeated while in the middle of acclaim and applause.

It all depends on being in our out of His will.

April 1st -

APRIL FOOL'S DAY - A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE.

Silence is valuable - do not break it unless you can improve on it.

A merry heart is good medicine with no bad side effects, but is very addictive. try it.

When you grasp, you lose; when you give , you gain

Be a channel of truth and love, not a reservoir.

The Gift of TOUCHING

Have you ever longed to be touched in your spirit, in your heart, in your emotions, or just longed to have a great big old HUG.

Touching shows someone that you want to connect with them, that they do not disgust you, that you know how they are feeling; that you understand what is going on and that you do not mind sharing with them.

Sometimes you can speak with a look and a nod or a frown or a smile, but nothing speaks more volumes that touch. Actually - ask a child about a hug and a spanking and they can tell you quite a tale.

Anyway, we need to reach out and touch each other with love, hope, appreciation, affirmation, hope and joy and peace and remember you can touch lives by EXAMPLE of good living , good deeds, good manners and certainly with goodwill.

TOUCH SOMEONE TODAY AND ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE TOUCHED.

March 26th

The language of SPENDING

It is so not all about money.... it is about spending QUALITY TIME with oneanother, staying silent while being together, spending time LAUGHING and CRYING(when necessary) together; it is spending time HOLDING ON to each other when all the world seems to be turning and turning its back on you; it is spending time EATING together - do you know how much is shared when the palette is satisfied with good food and/or good wine !!!!! Okay Christians...relax.; it is spending time LISTENING - you do not always have to speak SHSHS, be Quiet - let the other person unload, be there for them; it is about spending time PARTICIPATING in some things you may not even like, but just to be there for the other person.

When you do all these things, it shows how much you care and value and cherish the other person.

Today, I am going to spend time with my sister, who needs a helping hand in more ways than one.

Now pick a someone you can spend time with or something on TODAY.

have a good one.

March 25th

The gift of AFFIRMATION

Sometimes all we need is someone to tell us that we count and that we are important and special to them. To give someone a gift of a compliment or even sometimes requesting their advice, truly could make someone's day special. We must find something special about someone and make our affirmations true and real and do not over do, but do not pass up any opportunity to boost another's self esteem and validate them.

My affirmation to you goes like this.

I love you and think that you are really special and I am truly blessed to have you in my life.

Will you reciprocate??????

March 24th

The love language of GIVING

Giving is such a symbol of love. It could be something tangible or not, something homemade or purchased; it can also be just being present, just listening, giving of your time, your energy, your SMILE, sometimes MONEY, whatever the gift is - it represents your respect and value of the relationship. So make giving special and however small you may think it is wrap it nicely, eg. wrap your presence in a beautiful smile with the fragrance of beauty and love and think about the person to whom you are giving and make it remind you of them.

Enjoy your gift of giving today

March 23rd

The love language of serving should not be forced or coerced; it should be given freely and accepted graciously and reciprocated when possible. It should be used generously and always seem pleasurable. If ever this language is requested, it should always be completed as requested. It is a language that the more you use it , the more you enjoy using it and the more freely and frequently you receive it back. Try it, it really works. What do you think.

Put your response in the Guest Book or in Comments or Message Board

Have a great day.!

March 22nd.

There are so many languages of love.

I will write about five of them and each day after I will write about each one

Here we go:

Language of Serving

Language of Giving

Language of Affirming

Language of Spending (not only cash :)

Language of Touching

Think about them and then compare what I write with what you feel

Have a good one - write to you tomorrow - if it comes - I am NOT MORBID, just REALISTIC.

March 21st

Great day to be alive and to worship and fellowship with family and friends.

A grateful heart has lots of room

For happy thoughts to grow and bloom

We have not been given a spirit of fear, but one of power, love and a sound mind.

A life well lived always leaves a pleasing aroma.

The evil that men do lives after them, the good is often enterred with their souls.

Eternity is one breath away.

March 20th

There is no substitute for being REAL.

When you know the truth, it is easier to figure out what is FALSE.

SUCCESS is usually birthed from the ashes of FAILURE.

TOUGH times definitely teach us to TRUST.

REAL WEALTH is the only thing that we have to invest for ETERNITY.

An important part of praying is a willingness to be a part of the ANSWER.

COMPASSION puts LOVE into ACTION.

Take care of our CHARACTER and our REPUTATION will take care of itself.

A good EXAMPLE is way better than good ADVICE.

March 19th

If you are reading this I guess you received the gift also. Yes the gift of life.

Enjoy it because today - right now - is all that you are assured of.

Yesterday is history and tomorrow is a mystery.

Enjoy what you have been given even if it is not in the requested packaging.

Laugh a lot and laugh heartily and healthily.

Kiss for as long as you can.

Speak words of encouragement .

Be anxious for nothing and in everything give thanks.

Spring is a time of renewal and restoration, get rid of all messy stuff, give it away and plant seeds of love, friendship, cooperation, forgiveness. and most of all

Have a great weekend.

March 18th

LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND TREAT EACH DAY AS A GIFT - you never know when it is the last

Gratitude. Every night before you go to sleep, recite aloud at least ten things for which you are grateful.

Forgive. Let go of the past. Forgive those who have hurt or angered you. Stop carrying this poison around with you every day.

Love. Be sure to tell those people in your life who mean so much to you that you love them and appreciate them.

Donate. Go through your closets. Anything you haven't worn or used in the past year, box it or bag it and take it to a place where those who are less fortunate will benefit from your donation. Get your children (or your family) involved!

Praise. Make time to praise. Look for and recognize the good in others.

March 17th

As promised: The Don't S

Do not make resolutions - make plans

Do not regret what you forgot to do yesterday - try to do it today

Do not become overwhelmed - just prioritize

Do not worry about anything - trust in Him who can fix everything

Do not bother about what other people are thinking about you. It is their business and not yours.

Do not become bitter - get better

Do not render evil for evil - forgive and let go and let God.

March 16th

Today some DO S tomorrow some DONT S

Do open doors for others especially ladies and the elderly.

Do ask others for their opinions

Do express and interest in other people

Do praise publicly and reprimand privately

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

MARCH 15th

IN this arrogant world, let us choose humility instead:

The humble will wait patiently while the arrogant ---has to have it NOW

The humble is not easily provoked...the arrogant ---- is quick to take offense

The humble will have a serving spirit... the arrogant ---demands service

The humble has a spirit of contentment and are not jealous or envious...the arrogant will always feel that they deserve more.

Remember MEEKNESS is not WEAKNESS and HUMILITY is POWER under CONTROL

March 14th

In order to achieve a more balanced life, here are some suggestions.

be progressive without being pretentious

be friendly and do not get familiar

show meekness and not weakness

be very discerning and do not become critical

be tenderhearted and not be touchy

be tactful and not be timid

and remember that discipline does not have to become demanding

March 13th

Today ,we will not only exist, we will LIVE

Today, I will not only touch, I will FEEL

I will do more than look, today I will OBSERVE

And I will not only read, I will ABSORB

When someone speaks today I will do more than hear, I will LISTEN

And in times of quietude I will not just think, but I will REFLECT

Should there be an opportunity , may I just not talk but I will SAY SOMETHING ENCOURAGING AND MEANINGFUL.

March 12th

One step forward in obedience is worth years of study about it.

A great way to make things right is to admit it when you,ve been wrong.

If we take care of our character, our reputation will take care of itself.

Compassion puts love into action.

There is no substitute for being real and honest.

Success often rises out of the ashes of failure.

.....the lessons we learn from our failures

are the ones that help us succeed,

if we use wisdom and learn from then

We will learn that failure was just what we need.

March 11th

We cannot understand trust until we are betrayed.

We will not understand hope until we are confronted with doubts

We truly understand joy when we have experienced sorrow.

We know nothing about faith until we have been tested.

There is no understanding of peace until you are faced with conflict

We only definitely understand love when it has been lost.

HAVE YOU LOST AT LOVE OR LOST A LOVE LATELY?

Do not despair - better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

March 10th

Wow - it seems like March plans to march right out in a huge hurry. it is already the 10th.

Success is the power that keeps you going when others try to push you down.

Success is also following God despite all the detours signs strewn on the path.

- bearing an injustice without retaliating.

- holding on even when things seem to be slipping away.

- being creative and honest when you are down and out.

- knowing that when you think you have exhausted all possibilities that the best is yet to come.

Finally, success without conflict is totally unrealistic. Make the best of everything.

March 9th

Spring is a time of renewal and transformation. Choose today to live a transformed life.

What you will be in the next five years depends on the people you meet, the books you read and the choices you make. Do all these things well.

Success can be defined when you have laughed with abandon, played with enthusiasm and when you have sung with exultation and when your silence spoke volumes.

It is also when you have earned the approval of honest critics and endured the betrayal of many false friends - my friend, you are enjoying success.

When I have the love and affection of children and have won the respect of intelligent folk, I have succeeded!

I appreciated beauty in my surroundings and in the universe, I have given as much of myself as I was able to and I have looked for and found the best in others, so I know that I am successfull. How about you?

March 8th -INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY

SALUTING ALL WOMEN on this day - Continue to make a difference wherever you are and remain empowered by Him who created you and He who knows the balance of your days and charts all your course.

She who knows not and does not know that she doesn't know is foolish, stay away.

She who doesn't know and knows that she does not know, is a child - teach her.

She who knows and does not know that she knows, is asleep - please wake her!

She who knows and knows that she knows is wise - follow her!

Whatever you value, take care of it

Whatever you borrow - please return it

If you move it, can you put it back?

But if it is not broken , do not try to fix it, please

If it will hurt someone's reputation - keep it to yourself

If it will brighten their day and make them feel loved and appreciated, say it and share it.

March 7th -

Hope you had a great Sunday. What a great day to be alive.

Seize today - yesterday is history and tomorrow is a mystery - so seize today.

There is an appointed time for everything and every purpose.

Prepare for your miracle and be careful how you claim the promise.

The person you now consider an outcast, will become a man(woman) of valor and is truly "approved" not necessarily by us.

The stone the builder rejects has become the corner stone.

Time waits on no one - redeem the time and bloom where you are planted.

March 6th

GUESS WHAT - it is the weekend and we have fittings today and a show tonight - so I will write the quote in between some of those events.

By the end of today, today's and tomorrow's quotes will be entered - PROMISE.

PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE

March 6th - later in the day as promised.

I was told that my quotes page is interesting and is basically blogging - what do you think - leave your message and I will respond.

................

Do you know that years may wrinkle and damage the skin; but when you stop being enthusiastic, this wrinkles and damages the spirit.

It is never "too soon" to do a kind deed, because you do not know how soon it will become "too late".

Life is like a ladder - every time we take a step, it is either a step up or a step down, be careful how you live life - it is very FRAGILE, so handle with CARE.

Have a good day and if you go to church, have a good service and if you don't , you should start - it is good for your soul!!

March 5th

So the big day has come and gone and I trust you enjoyed waiting to find out what it was really about, only to find out that it was merely the incorrect spelling of one word that could change something. Anyway, its time to move on.

If you see a need - please take the lead

If you want to live - remember that you have to die

Do you want to be exalted ? Then start humbling yourself.

You feel the need to receive , you just then have to start giving.

Let us not be content to be just spirit- filled, let us work on being spirit-spilled.

Find some of those empty vessels and begin to pour and you will find that you will always have more.

When you feel that your well has ceased to flow, you must realize that the living water has not run out, but the well has probably become clogged and the pipes could use a cleaning.

So let us get busy and get on with the job (while we have the time)

Have a good one and come visit again. Nice having you - leave a note.

MARCH 4TH -

MILITARY DAY -

MARCH FORTH

March 2nd

Have fellowship with winners and your chances of winning will increase tremendously.

We do not have to be GREAT to START, but we have to START to be GREAT.

You many thank others for your SUCCESS, but never blame them for your lack of SUCCESS.

It is easy to know if someone is a true friend and one way is by the way they react or do not react to any type of SUCCESS you achieve, or they think you are about to achieve.

Keep friends close and enemies closer.

People do not have to be told that they are loved or not loved, they are shown it - start reading the message boards of conversation or lack thereof.

As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he - let us keep our thoughts pure happy and elevated.

Have a good one -

PS - MILITARY DAY IS NOW 2 DAYS AWAY!!!

March 1st

When a March wind blows, when a March wind blows,

It takes my Hat and away it goes,

I follow after and its fun,

Oh a merry March wind, makes me run

Just a heads up.....

MILITARY DAY IS IN THREE DAYS - GET YOUR UNIFORM AND BE READY

Build this month on a foundation of happy thoughts, good deed and words of love and comfort.

Feb 28th

Today we learned a new word and we are proud to present it to the world - Remember, it is on www.kiralinasings.com that you first heard it. the word is ....assumacize ...

THIS WORD WAS CREATED BY PASTOR BLAKE OF OCOG,Montreal

even though it is a new word, we have been assumacising or assumacizing for ever. here are a few examples and you can check yourself to see how much or how many times you have assumacized or been assumacized before.....

- you have seen someone with fitted clothes - she is from the wrong side of the track

- you have heard someone taking the time to explain something - he thinks he knows it all

- you seen two same sex people embrace - they are (happy) ---

those are some examples of assumacizing and many folk have been hurt or rejected or abused because of assumacization.

For today - let us speak well of others and they will return the favor.

Have a good one

GUESS WHAT - FEBRUARY 2010 IS ALREADY DONE......WOW

Feb 27th

I know what it is to be in need, I know what it is to have plenty. I have learnt to secret of being content in every and any situation, whether hungry or well fed, whether in poverty or in wealth; I can do all thing through Him that strengthens me. Phil 4: 12 and 13.

If I choose to live each day as my last, then each new day is a bonus and a blessing and a time to start over again and be better than I was before. That is a great opportunity. SAS

Everyone has something great and good within them and that is the only part of each person we need to investigate, the bad stuff will reveal itself in time, not necessarily the proper time, but in time.

Feb 26th

Choose to love rather than hate

Wear a smile instead of a frown

Give a compliment instead of a criticism

Choose to praise instead of gossip

Build up and stop tearing down

Give more and take less

Show more appreciation and take less for granted

Heal more and stop wounding

Please FORGIVE AND not CURSE OR GOSSIP

Pray more and expect even more

Feb.25th

We must watch what we think because they become words

We have to watch our words, they eventually become actions

We have to control our actions, as they will become habits

We have to watch our habits as they develop and become our character

When we watch our character, it becomes our destiny

Let us live our faith with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength regardless of the cost.

HAVE A GOOD HEARTY LAUGH AT LEAST O N C E PER DAY. It makes life so much easier.

FEB 24TH.

This is a time of making Choices - Agree!

If you want abundance - begin scattering.

If it is poverty you desire - grasp at everything in sight.

However, if you want to be rich - give and give and then give some more.

Because if you want to be needy - hide and store up everything that you have

It is all a matter of choice.

WE ARE BLESSED - when we can show people how to co-operate instead of competing or fighting or being envious or jealous. We are all fearfully and wonderfully and differently made.

That is the time when we truly discover who we really are, whose we are and our place in His family

Feb 23rd.

Here are some essentials for abundant and contented living (despite all odds)

have enough hope and faith to disallow any fears about the future

have and share enough love for and with others that can be useful and helpful to them

have enough wealth at your disposal to meet you needs and assist (some) others

have faith that will make you believe and trust in the things of God

have patience and endurance to see a task through to its completion

do not desire to be approved, but live a life that is approving

be healthy enough that work becomes pleasure and not a struggle

love yourself - no matter what you think of yourself

Say what you mean and mean what you say because you said it

Be at peace with yourself and try to be happy, be assertive without being aggressive,

be humble and not proud and be confident in who you are and whose you are.

Feb 22nd

When we are lost - we need somone to find us

When we are empty - we need to be filled up

Whe we are discouraged - we need to be given hope

When we are crying - we all need to be heard

When we are hungry - we need to be fed

When we are hurting - we need to be comforted

When we feel afraid - we need to be protected

When we are confused - we need to be taught

When we are lonely - we need to be loved

Feb 21st

FRIENDS ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE.....

They laugh and cry with us.

They stand besides us through thick and thin

They confront us and help us grow

They build memories with us

They enrich our lives

They teach us how to be friends

They keep us from temptation (at least they try)

They fall into a few different categories,but they are friends and that is what is important.

BECOME A FRIEND TO SOMEONE NEW TODAY.

Feb 20th.

We are shaped by:

the people with whom we spend our time - friends,

what we read - literature,

what we listen to - music

how we spend our leisure time - pleasures,

what we hope and dream about - desires

what we spend our time on - ambitions

what we hold in our hearts - thoughts

As a man(woman) thinks - so is he(she)

Feb 19th

Do not take yourself too seriously.

Thank God for all things (little or huge)

Smile without having a reason.

Do not try to be perfect - just be (lol)

Do not be easily offended and laugh every chance you get!

Add humor to every situation - it makes it easier in conflicts and difficulties.

Feb. 18th

To err is human and to forgive is divine.

It can sometimes take five to ten years to become an "Overnight Success"

Dreaming is an essential part of becoming what you desire to become; it is the initial stage where you prepare for what you want and make plans to do what you need to do to have what you want.

Hope deferred, makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true at last, there is life and joy - Prov. 13:12

Necessity is the Mother of Invention.

Realizing your goal is much easier when you know exactly what that goal is.

Feb 17th

Seize the Day

Let us enjoy today as though it were our last

Remember that change is a PROCESS not an EVENT

Go that extra mile today - even if it is to pick up a friend, or some ice cream or a bargain

Feb 16th

'He will cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you will find refuge.'
(Psalm 91:4)

Feb 15th

Friendship is a golden chain that binds two friends together and if you do not break that chain we will be friends forever.

Be there to care and be there even when you do not know what to do.

Let us always treat each other as equals.

Make all of our friends Number One and esteem them higher than ourselves.

Let us emphasize our friend's strengths and virtues and minimize and pray about their

sins and weaknesses - as they are hopefully doing for us.

Feb 14th

We are humans going through a spiritual experience only but also spiritual beings going through a temporary experience.

Love never hurts and love always protects.

Let us not love with just words and speech but in truth and with actions.

Love covers a multitude of sins.

As we are loved, let us love one another.

As His chosen people holy and dearly loved, clothe ourselves with compassion, kindness , humility, gentleness and patience , bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you have with one another . Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

Now BLOOM WHEREVER YOU ARE PLANTED AND SPREAD SOME LOVE PEACE AND JOY AROUND in every possible way -

Music, song, dance, drama, mime, spoken word, exhortation, but most of all, by EXAMPLE.

April 10th

Sometimes, she was stomped to death by racism & sexism, executed by hi-tech ignorance while she carried the family in her belly, the community on her head, and
the race on her back!

The strong black woman is dead! Or is she?

Opportunity may knock once,but temptation bangs on your door forever.

Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.
Do not make any excuses for Him, He is quite capable of dealing with unbelievers on his own.
