Little Things to Remember

A friend sent these to me and I immediately thought of you.....enjoy. 
 
1.  No one can ruin your day without your permission. 
2.  Most people will be about as happy as they decide to be. 
3.  Others can stop you temporarily but only YOU can do it permanently. 
4.  Whatever you will put up with is exactly what you will have. 
5.  Success stops when you do. 
6.  When your ship comes in make sure you are willing to unload it. 
7.  You will never have it all together. 
8.  The biggest lie on the planet, "When I get what I want, I will be happy." 
9.  I've learned that  ultimately,"takers" lose and "givers" win. 
10. If you don't start, it's certain you won't arrive. 
11. We often fear the thing we want the most. 
12. Yesterday was the deadline for all complaints. 
13. Look for opportunities, not guarantees. 
14. Life is what's coming, not what has been. 
15. Now is the most interesting time of all. 
16. When things go wrong, don't go with them. 
17.  Sometimes the majority only means all the fools are on the same side. 
18.  A BEST FRIEND IS LIKE A FOUR LEAF CLOVER: HARD TO FIND AND LUCKY TO HAVE. 
19.  You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to. 
20.  Our eyes are in front because it's more important to look ahead than to 
       look back.

The Value of Time

Since the year is coming to a close rapidly, it is time to reflect on the priorities that have 
consumed  us over the past 365 days.  Perhaps even make some changes.
  
To realize 
The value of a sister/brother 
Ask someone 
Who doesn't have one. 
  
To realize 
The value of ten years: 
Ask a newly 
Divorced couple. 
  
To realize 
The value of four years: 
Ask a graduate. 
  
To realize 
The value of one year: 
Ask a student who 
Has failed a final exam. 
  
To realize 
The value of nine months: 
Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn. 
  
To realize 
The value of one month: 
Ask a mother 
Who has given birth to 
A premature baby. 
  
To realize 
The value of one week: 
Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper. 
  
To realize 
The value of one minute: 
Ask a person 
Who has missed the train, bus or plane. 
  
To realize 
The value of one second: 
Ask a person 
Who has survived an accident. 
  
Time waits for no one. 
  
Treasure every moment you have. 
  
You will treasure it even more when 
You can share it with someone special. 
  
To realize the value of a friend or family member: 
  
LOSE ONE. 
  
The origin of this letter is unknown, 
But it brings good luck to everyone who passes it on. 
  
Remember.... 
  
Hold on tight to the ones you love!
