As dawn greets the day And sunlight sparkles Rays pouring down Senses come alive Moments to enjoy Life to be lived When the sun rises up The sky suffusing with light A calming ensues I think of you And all of the moments That you have brought me light As my heart feels your love I know that you are My beautiful sunrise!

The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather in our complacency; not in our doing too much, but rather in our doing too little; not in our living above our ability, but rather in our living below our capacities.
Benjamin E. Mays The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their aspirations. Adam Smith In human intercourse the tragedy begins, not when there is misunderstanding about words, but when silence is not understood. Henry David Thoreau To believe in love, to be ready to give up anything for it, to be willing to risk your life for it, is the ultimate tragedy. Leonardo DiCaprio Tragedy in life normally comes with betrayal and compromise, and trading on your integrity and not having dignity in life. That's really where failure comes. Tom Cochrane The tragedy of life is in what dies inside a man while he lives - the death of genuine feeling, the death of inspired response, the awareness that makes it possible to feel the pain or the glory of other men in yourself. Norman Cousins The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that it bothers him less and less. Vaclav Havel Everybody knows about Pearl Harbor. The thing that really fascinated me is that through this tragedy there was this amazing American heroism. Michael Bay It must be borne in mind that the tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach. Benjamin E. Mays The greatest tragedy in mankind's entire history may be the hijacking of morality by religion. Arthur C. Clarke The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls the butterfly. Richard Bach If you believe, as the Greeks did, that man is at the mercy of the gods, then you write tragedy. The end is inevitable from the beginning. But if you believe that man can solve his own problems and is at nobody's mercy, then you will probably write melodrama. Lillian Hellman |

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Mahatma Gandhi Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one's values. Ayn Rand Happiness is something that you are and it comes from the way you think. Wayne Dyer Happiness is essentially a state of going somewhere, wholeheartedly, in one-direction, without regret or reservation. William H. Sheldon Happiness is not a reward - it is a consequence. Robert Ingersoll Happiness is different from pleasure. Happiness has something to do with struggling and enduring and accomplishing. George Sheehan Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence. Aristotle Happiness is not something you experience, it's something you remember. Oscar Levant Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. Margaret Lee Runbeck Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. Denis Waitley All in all, one would say that happiness is a decision. Your happiness is your decision to make. All the quotes above require actions on our part and actions require decisions. |

There was once a band
Who got rejected by a record company They felt bad but they didn'��t let Rejection in the way of their destiny In fact they strode ahead Without letting the blow become fatal They went on to become great Calling themselves The Beatles This should be a lesson For everyone who fails Every morning is an opportunity In life, to write a new tale! Good morning! |

Early mornings are Beautiful and fun Innocent and fresh Their beauty is matched by none Soak in the beautiful hues Of the morning sunshine Absorb the peace and calm It'��ll give you less reasons to whine Watch the mist and dew On the grass blades Live life to the fullest Before its beauty fades...! Good morning! |
