Alphabet of Happiness

A - Accept
Accept others for who they are and for the choices they have made even if you have difficulty understanding their beliefs, motives, or actions.

B - Break
Break away from everything that stands in the way of what you hope to accomplish with your life.

C - Create
Create a family of friends whom you can share your hopes, dreams, sorrows, and happiness with.

D - Decide
Decide that you will be successful and happy come what may, and good things will find you. The roadblocks are only minor obstacles along the way.

E - Explore
Explore and experiment. The world has much to offer, and you have much to give. And every time you try something new, you will learn more about yourself.

F - Forgive
Forgive and forget. Grudges only weigh you down and inspire unhappiness and grief. Soar above it, and remember that everyone makes mistakes.

G - Grow
Grow up and leave the childhood monsters behind. They can no longer hurt you or stand in your way.

H - Hope
Hope for the best and never forget that anything is possible as long as you remain dedicated to the task.

I - Ignore
Ignore the negative voice inside your head. Focus instead on your goals and remember your accomplishments. Your past success is only a small inkling of what the future holds.

J - Journey
Journey to new worlds, new possibilities, by remaining open-minded. Try to learn something new everyday, and you will grow.

K - Know
Know that no matter how bad things seem, they will always get better. The warmth of spring always follows the harshest winter.

L - Love
Love your fellowmen. Fill your heart with love instead of hate. When hate is in your heart, there is room for nothing else, but when love is in your heart, there is space for endless happiness.

M - Manage
Manage your time and your expenses wisely, and you will suffer less stress and worry. Then you will be able to focus on the important things in life.

N - Neglect
Neglect not the poor, infirm, helpless, weak, or those who are suffering. Offer your assistance when possible, and always your kindness and understanding.

O - Open
Open your eyes and take in all the beauty around you. Even during the worst of times, there is still much to be thankful for.

P - Play
Play and do not forget to have fun along the way. Success means nothing without happiness.

Q - Question
Question the things that you find confusing because you are here to learn.

R - Refuse
Refuse to let worry and stress rule your life, and remember that things always have a way of working out in the end.

S - Share
Share your talent, skills, knowledge, and time with others. Everything that you invest in others will return to you many times over.

T - Try
Try and try harder even when your dreams seem impossible to reach. You will be amazed by what you can accomplish.

U - Use
Use your gifts to the best of your ability. Talent that is wasted has no value. Talent that is used will bring surprising rewards.

V - Value
Value family members and friends who have supported and encouraged you, and be there for them as well.

W - Work
Work hard everyday and be the best person you can be, but never feel guilty if you fall short of your goals. Every sunrise offers a second chance.

X - X-Ray
X-ray or look deep inside the hearts of those around you, and you will see the goodness and beauty within.

Y - Yield
Yield to commitment. If you stay on track and remain dedicated, you will find success at the end of the road.

Z - Zoom
Zoom to a happy place when bad memories or sorrow rears its ugly head. Let nothing interfere with your goals. Instead, focus on your abilities, your dreams, and a brighter tomorrow.

It Pays To Be Humble

John works at a meat distribution factory. One day, when he finished his work schedule, he went to the meat cold room (freezer) to inspect something but in a moment of bad luck, the door closed and he was locked inside with no help in sight. Although he screamed and knocked with all his might, his cries went unheard as no one could hear him.

Most of the workers had already gone, and outside the cold room it is impossible to hear what was going on inside. A few hours later, whilst John was on the verge of death, the security guard of the factory eventually opened the door and saved him.

John thanked the security guard and asked him what he came to do there as it was not a part of his work routine.

The security guard replied, "I've been working in this factory for 35 years. Hundreds of workers come in and go out everyday but you are one of the few who greet me in the morning and say goodbye to me every night while leaving after the working hours. Many treat me as if I am invisible. So today like every other days, you greeted me in your simple manner "Hello" at the entrance when resuming for work. But curiously after working hours today, I realized I had not heard your "Goodbye, see you tomorrow." Hence, I decided to check around the factory. I always look forward to your greetings everyday because to you, I am someone. By not hearing your farewell, I knew something had happened. Then I sought and found you!"

Moral of the story: Be humble, love and respect those around you regardless of who they are or what they have.

God Said No

I asked God to take away my pride.
God said, No.
It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
God said, No.
His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary.

I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, No.
Patience is a by product of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.

I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No.
I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you.

I asked God to spare me pain.
God said, No.
Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to Me.

I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.

I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said, Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.
If you love God, share love!

THIS DAY IS YOURS.
DON'T THROW IT AWAY.

To the world you might just be one person, but to one person you might be the world.
