You Are So Blessed!

You Are So Blessed!

If you woke up this morning
With more health than illness,
You are more blessed than the
Million who won't survive the week.

If you have never experienced
The danger of battle,
The loneliness of imprisonment,
The agony of torture or
The pangs of starvation,
You are ahead of 20 million people
Around the world.


If you attend a church meeting
Without fear of harassment, arrest,
Torture, or death,
You are more blessed than almost
Three billion people in the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator,
Clothes on your back, a roof over
Your head and a place to sleep,
You are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank,
In your wallet, and spare change
In a dish someplace, you are among
The top 8% of the world's wealthy.

If you hold up your head with a smile
On your face and are truly thankful,
You are blessed because the majority can,
But most do not.

If you can read this message,
You are more blessed than over
Two billion people in the world
That cannot read anything at all.

You are so blessed in ways
You may never even know.

La Vida (D39)
There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often times we look so long at the
closed door that we don't see the one,
which has been opened for us.


Don't go for looks; they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,
because it takes only a smile to
make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.


Dream what you want to dream;
go where you want to go;
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow 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


Please send this message to those people
who mean something to you (I JUST DID);
to those who have touched your life in one way or another;
to those who make you smile when you really need it;
to those who make you see the
brighter side of things when you are really down;
to those whose friendship you appreciate;
to those who are so meaningful in your life.


If you don't send it, don't worry,
nothing bad will happen to you;

Don't count the years-count the memories...........

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take;
but by the moments that take our breath away!
