Dores da Alma


As dores da alma não deixam recados,
imprimem uma sentença que
perdura pelos anos.
Um amor que acabou mal resolvido,
um emprego que se perdeu inexplicavelmente,
um casamento que mal começou e já terminou,
uma amizade que acabou com traição,
tudo vai deixando sinais, marcas profundas...
Precisamos trabalhar as dores da alma,
para que sirvam apenas de aprendizado,
extraindo delas a capacidade de
nos fortalecermos,
aprendendo que o melhor de nós,
ainda está em nós mesmos,
que amando-nos incondicionalmente,
descobrimos a auto-estima,
que se deixarmos seguir o caminho da
dor e da lamentação,
iremos buraco abaixo no caminho
da depressão.

As dores da alma não saem no jornal,
não viram capa de revista, e só quem sente,
pode avaliar o estrago que elas causam.
Como não existe vacina para amores
mal resolvidos,
nem para decepções diárias,
o que vale é a prevenção, então:
Ame-se para amar e ser verdadeiramente amado,
sorria para que o mundo seja mais gentil,
dedique-se, para que as falhas sejam pequenas,
não se compare, você é único,
repare nas pequenas coisas,
mas cuidado com as grandes que as vezes
estão bem diante do nosso nariz e
não enxergamos, sonhe,
pois o sonho é o combustível da realização,
My Friends from Colorado U.S.A
tenha amigos e seja o melhor amigo de todos,
apaixone-se pela vida e por tudo o que é seu,
sinta o seu cheiro e acredite em seu
poder de sedução, estimule-se,
contagie o mundo com o seu melhor,
creia em Deus,
pois sem Ele não há razão em nada,
e tenha sempre a absoluta certeza de que,
depois da forte tempestade,
o arco-íris vai surgir
e o sol vai brilhar ainda mais forte.

(Paulo Roberto Gaefke)
(Presente da Áurea Manchini)

Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires,
and a touch that never hurts.
Charles Dickens
Grão de Amor
"Me deixe sim, mas só se for pra ir ali e pra voltar. Me deixe sim, meu grão de amor, mas nunca deixe de me amar. Agora as noites são tão longas, no escuro eu penso em te encontrar. Me deixe só até a hora de voltar (...) Me esqueça sim, mas nunca esqueça o meu amor!" Arnaldo Antunes


We can have a positive attitude towards life, or a negative attitude. We can focus on the good or we can focus on the bad. Keeping a positive mental attitude is one of the keys to success.
The choice is always up to you!

If You Knew My Jesus

If you knew my Jesus,
You wouldn't hate your neighbor 
For the color of his skin.
If you knew my Jesus,
You'd love the sinner,
But hate the sin.
If you knew my Jesus,
Riches would be meaningless,
Because God always provides.
If you knew my Jesus,
You would never take sides.
If you knew my Jesus,
A church would only be
A place of prayer.
If you knew my Jesus,
You could pray even in
The open air.
If you knew my Jesus,
You'd be in love with everyone.
If you knew my Jesus,
All wars would be done.
For you see my Jesus
Is a God of love,
And while we struggle with life,
He always watches from above.
And when things seem darkest,
We need only to pray,
Because my Jesus listens
Each and every day.
Michael M. Kelly

And God Created Woman

God said....

When I created the heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being. When I created man, I formed him and breathed life into his nostrils. But you, woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath of life into man because your nostrils are too delicate.

I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently and perfectly fashion you. Man was put to sleep so that he could not interfere with the creativity.

From one bone I fashioned you. I chose the bone that protects man's life. I chose the rib, which protects his heart and lungs and supports him, as you are meant to do. Around this one bone I shaped you. I modeled you. I created you perfectly and beautifully.

Your characteristics are as the rib, strong yet delicate and fragile. You provide protection for the most delicate organ in man, his heart. His heart is the center of his being; his lungs hold the breath of life. The rib cage will allow itself to be broken before it will allow damage to the heart. Support man as the rib cage supports the body.

You were not taken from his feet, to be under him, nor were you taken from his head, to be above him. You were taken from his side, to stand beside him and be held close to his side. You are My perfect angel. You are My beautiful little girl. You have grown to be a splendid woman of excellence, and My Eyes fill when I see the virtues in your heart. Your eyes - don't change them. Your lips - how lovely when they part in prayer. Your nose, so perfect in form, your hands so gentle to touch. I've caressed your face in your deepest sleep; I've held your heart close to Mine.

Of all that lives and breathes, you are the most like Me. Adam walked with Me in the cool of the day and yet he was lonely. He could not see Me or touch Me. He could only feel Me. So everything I wanted Adam to share and experience with Me, I fashioned in you: My Holiness, My Strength, My Purity, My Love, My Protection and Support. You are special because you are the extension of Me.

Man represents My Image - woman, My Emotions. Together, you represent the Totality of God. So man - treat woman well. Love her, respect her, for she is fragile. In hurting her, you hurt Me. What you do to her, you do to Me. In crushing her, you only damage your own heart, the heart of your Father, and the heart of her Father. Woman, support man. In humility, show him the power of emotion I have given you. In gentle quietness show your strength. In love, show him that you are the rib that protects his inner self.


Addendum -- 1 Corinthians 11:12 (NKJ)   "For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God."


Getting Along Better or Gossip (Fofocas)


Proven Ways to Get Along Better  with EVERYONE
v Before you say anything to anyone, ask yourself 3 things:
Ø Is it true?
Ø Is it kind?
Ø Is it necessary?
v Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully.
v Never miss the opportunity to compliment or say something encouraging to someone.
v Refuse to talk negatively about others; don't gossip and don't listen to gossip.
v Have a forgiving view of people. Believe that most people are doing the best they can.
v Keep an open mind; discuss, but don't argue. (It is possible to disagree without being disagreeable.)
v Forget about counting to 10. Count to 1,000 before doing or saying anything that could make matters worse.
v Let your virtues speak for themselves.
v If someone criticizes you, see if there is any TRUTH to what he is saying; if so, make changes. If there is no truth to the criticism, ignore it and live so that no one will believe the negative remark.
v Cultivate your sense of humor; laughter is the shortest distance between two people.
v Do not seek so much to be consoled, as to console; do not seek so much to be understood, as to understand; do not seek so much to be loved as to love.
...Uma fofoquinha pra lá, outra prá cá, mais uma pra completar e etc. Até que ponto nós ainda vamos conviver com esse tema que sempre prejudica alguém ?Quando ele vai acabar? Quando será o fim? Essas são perguntas que nós devemos perguntar para nós mesmos quando fomos vítimas de fofocas. Agora, para aquelas pessoas que gostam de fazer fofocas do outros, vocês devem perguntar essas perguntas a si mesmos: 'Será que o que eu fiz foi certo?' , Porque eu fiz isso?, Será que eu tenho que acabar com este Boato*? Pois bem, assim relatamos que sempre em uma fofoca alguém ( ou algumas) pessoas são benefíciadas. E as outras pessoas são as que saem perdendo, são aquelas que são as vítimas desse ato maldoso.

Vamos analisar uma situação bem comum estre muitas escolas, vamos ver um exemplo: Amiga tu nem sabe quem eu vi abraçando o Paulinho*, isso mesmo a Paula*! São essas as pessoas que começam o boato. Agora vamos dizer que esta tal de Paula* fique sabendo. é obvio que ela vai ficar triste porque não foi bem isto que aconteceu. A paula tenta se explicar dizendo que ela tropeçou e o Paulinho* segurou ela para ela não cair, mas as fofoqueiras não acreditam e começam a espalhar o boato pra todo mundo: ' A a paula abraçou o Paulinho*, A paula ficou com o Paulinho etc. E de acordo com o tempo a fofoca que ja esta na boca do povo vai se modificando de acordo com a pessoa , até ficar assim : A paula beijou o Paulinho, a Paulo saiu para comer pizza com o paulinho e depois eles foram no Parque.
Então pelo fato acima vemos que quem saiu prejudicada foi a paula e o Paulinho que acabou descobrindo a história também e ficou muito magoado.
É por isso que você deve pensar muito bem antes de Decidir entre jogar uma bomba de novidades para a galera ou ficar na sua vendo se aquilo é verdade.
Fofoca é Ruim, por isso espere para ver as coisas como elas realmente são, e não acredite em tudo que você ouve, porque se você for ver 70% do que você ouve é Fofoca e a grande maioria desta fofoca é sempre mentira.

liçao importante: Ajudar ao Próximo

Na chuva, numa noite, estava uma senhora negra, americana do lado de uma estrada no estado do Alabama enfrentando um tremendo temporal. O carro dela tinha enguiçado e ela precisava, desesperadamente, de uma carona. Completamente molhada, ela começou a acenar para os carros que passavam. Um jovem branco, parecendo que nao tinha conhecimento dos acontecimentos e conflitos dos anos 60, parou para ajuda-la.

O rapaz a colocou em um lugar protegido,procurou ajuda mecânica e chamou um táxi para ela. Ela parecia estar realmente com muita pressa mas conseguiu anotar o endereço dele e agradecê-lo. Sete dias se passaram quando bateram a porta da casa do rapaz. Para a surpresa dele, uma enorme TV colorida com o console e tudo estava sendo entregue na casa dele com um bilhete junto que dizia: "Muito obrigada por me ajudar na estrada naquela noite. A chuva nao só tinha encharcado minhas roupas como também meu espírito. Aí, você apareceu. Por sua causa eu consegui chegar ao leito de morte do meu marido antes que ele falecesse. Deus o abençoe por ter me ajudado . Sinceramente, Mrs. Nat King Cole"

Lição importante: Dar Importância as Pessoas

Durante meu segundo mês na escola de enfermagem, nosso professor nos deu um questionário. Eu era bom aluno e respondi rápido todas as questoes até chegar a última que era: "Qual o primeiro nome da mulher que faz a limpeza da escola?" Sinceramente, isso parecia uma piada.

Eu já tinha visto a tal mulher varias vezes. Ela era alta, cabelo escuro, lá pelos seus 50 anos, mas como eu ia saber o primeiro nome dela? Eu entreguei meu teste deixando essa questao em branco e um pouco antes da aula terminar, um aluno perguntou se a ultima pergunta do teste ia contar na nota. "É claro!", respondeu o professor. "Na sua carreira, você encontrará muitas pessoas. Todas têm seu grau de importância. Elas merecem sua atençao mesmo que seja com um simples sorriso ou um simples 'alô' ". Eu nunca mais esqueci essa liçao e também acabei aprendendo que o primeiro nome dela era Dorothy.

Lessons Learned From a Child and Her Dog

So teach him to close the door", my daughter Emma responded after listening to me complain, again, about the dog coming in from the back door, bringing with him a blast of Buffalo January cold air.
Teach a dog to close a door behind him? You got to be kidding. That has got to be a really, really hard thing to do, and I do not have any dog credentials following my name.
But then she took it a step further. "Come on Kolby", she said, grabbing some treats and positioning him in front of the open door. "Touch."
And "touch" he did, which moved the door to a closed position. She rewarded him with a treat, smiled, looked at me, and said "see!"
And I saw and became convinced. Over the last few days I have been consistent with Kolby. Each time he comes in I bring him back to the open door and ask him to close (I changed the target word, making the command more specific). There have been failures, but lately more and more successes. And I knew we turned the corner this morning when he asked to be let out just so I would open the door, so that he could close it and be treated.
WOW
There remains work to be done. I have to remove the hand signal and work so that he will close the door from a distance. But, I now realize, with consistency of focus the task will be completed, and, with the way things are progressing, completed quickly.
What a wonderful treat to have a dog that can close the door after himself. Even more wonder can be found in the lessons I learned so clearly from both Emma and Kolby.
A wish is just a wish until you decide to take action.
Once you decide to accomplish a goal, and decide that it "is" easy (remember Emma's assurance), than it becomes easy to do what needs to be done. Just start doing it.
As long as one holds on to the belief that it is "too hard", than it remains "too hard" and out of reach.
Working towards the accomplishment of a goal can be loads of fun, and full of lots and lots of treats.
So what have you been wishing for lately? And what has been stopping you from getting started?
By Cyndi Krupp.

Humor and Laughter

" Eu aprendi que nao importa quanta seriedade a vida exija de você,
cada um de nos precisa de um amigo brincalhão para se divertir junto."

William Shakespeare

Laughter is the best form of medicine. For when we laugh, we neither think, grieve, or feel. - Eugene Lam

Good humor is a tonic for mind and body. It is the best antidote for anxiety and depression. It is a business asset. It attracts and keeps friends. It lightens human burdens. It is the direct route to serenity and contentment. - Grenville Kleiser.

Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship – never.


 Don’t marry someone you can live with…….marry someone you can’t live without.
Somewhere theres someone who dreams of your smile and finds in your presense that life is worthwhile
So when you are lonely remember its truesomebody somewhere is thinking of you.

To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
Cherish your visions and your dreams. They are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
Napoleon Hill

Love is not singular except in syllable.
Love is like war… easy to start, difficult to finish,and impossible to forget.

Every goodbye makes the next hello closer

  • Sometimes you have to let go of the one you love to find out if there is really something there.
  • Every goodbye makes the next hello closer.
  • How lucky I am to have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye to.
  • Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?
  • You know that you are in love when the hardest thing to do is say good-bye!!
  • Where is the “good” in goodbye?
  • There are no good-byes, where ever we are, you’ll always be in my heart.
  • Being strong sometimes means being able to let go.
  • A good-bye is never painful unless you’re never going to say hello again.
  • Life wouldn’t be the same without you and all the memories you have givin me.
  • Sometimes you have to let go of the one you love to find out if there is really something there.
  • It’s all said and done, it’s real, and it’s been fun.
  • I can tell by your tears that you will remember it all.
    • Don’t be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before we can meet again and meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends.
    • It’s something unpredictable, but in the end is right, I hope you had the time of your life.
    • The loss of a friend is like that of a limb. Time may heal the anguish of the wound, but the loss cannot be repaired.
    • It is the end of something simple and the beginning of everything else.
    • Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
    • I’m torn between what was and what could be.
    • Saying goodbye isn’t the hard part, it’s what we leave behind that’s tough.
    • We only part to meet again.
    • Until this moment, I never understood how hard it was to lose something you never had.
    • You never leave someone behind, you take a part of them with you and leave a part of yourself behind.
    • True goodbyes are the ones never said or explained.
    • Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.
    • Why are the words goodbye, I’m sorry and I love you, so easily pronounced, but so hard to say?
    • A part of you has grown in me, together forever we shall be, never apart, maybe in distance, but not in the heart.
    • The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be the beginning.
    • The real genius for love lies not in getting into, but getting out of love.
    • The song is ended, but the melody lingers on.
    • Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
    • There is a time for departure even when there is no certain place to go.
    • You are the weakest link – goodbye!
    • If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
    • I don’t want to wake up and realize what I was dreaming was right in front of my shut eyes. I don’t want to stop saying hellos for fear of saying goodbyes.
    • When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.

    "Be Not Afraid"

    Eu ganhei essa foto de um amigo americano, é uma das preferida dele de Greg Olsen.  É a obra Be Not Afraid, ou seja, em português “Não temais”. E se tornou uma das minhas preferidas também, eu gosto muito dessa foto. E antes que ninguém me julgue, eu não estou adorando imagens. Mas eu sempre carrego comigo dentro da minha bíblia porque essa foto retrata muito bem das vezes quando surgem dificuldades na vida de todos nós que parece que não tem fim. E Deus vem e estende a sua mão para nos socorrer e nos ajudar. E retrata especialmente que nas horas mais difíceis da vida ele está sempre ao nosso lado, nunca estaremos sozinhos, pois Senhor sempre estará conosco para nos ouvir, interagir e intervir.

    Strength and Courage

    When you are in the final days of your life, what will you want? Will you hug that college degree in the walnut frame? Will you ask to be carried to the garage so you can sit in your car? Will you find comfort in rereading your financial statement? Of course not. What will matter then will be people. If relationships will matter most then, shouldn't they matter most now? Two types of voices command your attention today. Negative ones fill your mind with doubt, bitterness, and fear. Positive ones purvey hope and strength. Which one will you choose to heed?
    You weren't an accident. You weren't mass produced. You aren't an assembly-line product. You were deliberately planned, specifically gifted, and lovingly positioned on the earth by the Master Craftsman.
    If today were your last, would you do what you're doing? Or would you love more, give more, forgive more? Then do so! Forgive and give as if it were your last opportunity. Love like there's no tomorrow, and if tomorrow comes, love again.
    Forgiveness is unlocking the door to set someone free realizing you were a prisoner.

    If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning... Face it, friend. He is crazy about you!
    A book should be a garden that fits in the hands. Word-petals of color. Stems of strength. roots of truth. Turn a page and turn the seasons. Read the sentence and enjoy the roses.
    Want to snatch a day from the manacles of boredom? Do overgenerous deeds, acts beyond reimbursement. Kindness without compensation. Do a deed for which you cannot be repaid.
    There is a time for risky love. There is a time for extravagant gestures. There is a time to pour out your affections on one you love. And when the time comes - seize it, don't miss it.
    You change your life by changing your heart.
    Conflict is inevitable, but combat is optional.
    A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.
    Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. To these I commit my day.
    The presence of fear does not mean you have no faith. Fear visits everyone. But make your fear a visitor and not a resident.
    You may be transferred, enlisted, commissioned, reassigned, or hospitalized – but brand this on your heart – you can never go where God is not."
    No one can pray and worry at the same time.
    God never said that the journey would be easy, but He did say that the arrival would be worthwhile.
    God is able to accomplish, provide, help, save, keep, subdue... He is able to do what you can’t. He already has a plan. God’s not bewildered. Go to Him. Max Lucado.

    "Two types of voices command your attention today. Negative ones fill your mind with doubt, bitterness, and fear. Positive ones purvey hope and strength. Which one will you choose to heed"

    PACIÊNCIA - Lição de Vida

    No parque, uma mulher sentou-se ao lado de um homem.
    Ela disse:
    Aquele ali é meu filho, o de suéter vermelho deslizando no escorregador.

    - Um bonito garoto - respondeu o homem - e completou: - Aquela de vestido branco, pedalando a bicicleta, é minha filha.

    Então, olhando o relógio, o homem chamou a sua filha.

    - Melissa, o que você acha de irmos?

    Mais cinco minutos, pai. Por favor. Só mais cinco minutos!

    O homem concordou e Melissa continuou pedalando sua bicicleta, para alegria de seu coração.

    Os minutos se passaram, o pai levantou-se e novamente chamou sua filha:
    - Hora de irmos, agora?

    Mas, outra vez Melissa pediu:
    - Mais cinco minutos, pai. Só mais cinco minutos!

    O homem sorriu e disse:
    - Está certo!

    - O senhor é certamente um pai muito paciente - comentou a mulher ao seu lado.
    O homem sorriu e disse:

    - O irmão mais velho de Melissa foi morto no ano passado por um motorista bêbado,

    quando montava sua bicicleta perto daqui. Eu nunca passei muito tempo com meu filho e agora eu daria qualquer coisa por apenas mais cinco minutos com ele.

    Eu me prometi não cometer o mesmo erro com Melissa.
    Ela acha que tem mais cinco minutos para andar de bicicleta.
    Na verdade, eu é que tenho mais cinco minutos para vê-lá brincar...

    Em tudo na vida estabelecemos prioridades.
    Quais são as suas?

    Lembre-se: nem tudo o que é importante é prioritário, e nem tudo o que é necessário é indispensável!

    "Aquele que procura um amigo sem defeitos termina sem amigos."

    Have A Wonderful Day!!!!

    If you pay attention at every moment, you form a new relationship to time. In some magical way; by slowing down, you become more efficient, productive, and energetic, focusing without distraction directly on the task in front of you. Not only do you become immersed in the moment, you become that moment. Michael Ray

    Eu e Deus e as pessoas


    Estava refletindo agora, eu estava enviando que mensagens para alguns amigos meus.
    Percebi uma qualidade minha, claro que eu já conhecia, e não querendo ser melhor que ninguém claro, mais sempre me surpreendo com isso.
    "Da capacidade que eu tenho de esquecer o que me fazem, de mal é claro.
    Lembrei de todos sem exceção.
    E desejo a todos de verdade e do fundo do coração o mesmo que a mim. "O melhor."
    Quando eu era criança sempre fui assim, não conseguia ficar de mal de ninguém.
    Ás vezes eu apanhava na rua e depois queria ficar de bem de quem me bateu, parece idiotísse, mas é verdade.
    Adulta passei por coisas cruéis, como ouvir os outros falando mal de você e tal, mas sempre surge aquele pensamento de que tudo e todos merecem o perdão, mesmo não pedindo.
    Hoje vejo como é bom ser assim. E o quanto tem me acrescentado na vida. Coisas que se eu contar vão rir ou acharem que sou louca.
    Ás vezes pareço boba outras boa, mas no fundo sei que o que sou é eu mesma.
    Não tem ninguém que eu não converse ou que eu não vá com a cara.
    E hoje enviando as mensagens me admirei.
    É isso eu tenho orgulho de mim.
    Bom, Deus mudou a sorte de Jó quando este orava pelos seus amigos.
    Imagine o que Ele vai fazer com a minha se oro pelos meus inimigos.
    Faço para receber, não.
    Faço porque me sinto melhor fazendo o bem sem olhar a quem. E tenho uma única certeza planto.
    Então colho.
    E o mais legal é que é sem interesses, sem méritos.
    Coisas que só eu e Deus sabe.

    Time In a Bottle

    If I could save time in a bottle
    the first thing that I'd like to do
    is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
    just to spend them with you
    if I could make days last forever
    if words could make wishes come true
    I'd save every day like a treasure and then
    again I would spend them with you
    if I had a box just for wishes
    and dreams that had never come true
    the box would be empty except for the
    memories of how they were answered by you
    but there never seems
    to be enough time to do the
    things you want once you find them
    I've looked around enough to know that
    you're the one I want to go through time with

    Footprints In the Sand Message


    In the deepest sleep one night I dreamed
    that on the beach I walked.
    God was by my side each step,
    and quietly we talked.
    Then on the sky my life was flashed,
    the visions all serene.
    Two sets of footprints in the sand,
    were there in every scene.
    But then I noticed in some scenes,
    of suffering, pain, and strife......
    Just a single set of footprints,
    at the worst times of my life.
    "God....you said you'd stay by me-
    in good times and in bad....
    Why then did you leave me-
    each time my life was sad?"
    "My precious child," God answered,
    "When your life had pain, I knew,
    The single set of footprints,
    were the times I carried you."

    ♥ You are love ♥




    You are goodness and mercy and compassion and understanding. You are peace and joy and light. You are forgiveness and patience, strength and courage, a helper in time of need, a comforter in time of sorrow, a healer in time of injury, a teacher in times of confusion. You are thedeepest wisdom and the highest truth; the greatest peace and the grandest love. You are these things. And in moments of your life you have known yourself as these things. Choose now to know yourself as these things always.
    Neale Donald Walsch

    The Life

    The adventure of life is to learn. The purpose of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. The essence of life is to care. The opportunity of life is to serve. The secret of life is to dare. The spice of life is to befriend. The beauty of life is to give. The joy of life is to love.

    The best Day of My Life


    Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of my life, ever!
    There were times when I wondered if I would make it to today; but I did!
    And because I did I'm going to celebrate!
    Today, I'm going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so far:
    the accomplishments,
    the many blessings,
    and, yes, even the hardships
    because they have served to make me stronger.
    I will go through this day with my head held high and a happy heart.
    I will marvel at God's seemingly simple gifts:
    the morning dew, the sun,
    the clouds, the trees,
    the flowers,
    the birds.
    Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.
    Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people.
    I'll make someone smile. I'll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone I don't even know.
    Today, I'll give a sincere compliment to someone who seems down.

    I'll tell a child how special he is, and I'll tell someone
    I love just how deeply I care for them and how much they mean to me.
    Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don't have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me.
    I'll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because
    my faith in God and his Divine Plan ensures everything will be just fine.
    And tonight, before I go to bed,
    I'll go outside and raise my eyes to the heavens.
    I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the moon, and I will praise God for these magnificent treasures.
    As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow,
    I will thank the Almighty for the best day of my life.
    And I will sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with expectation because I know tomorrow is going to be the best day of my life, ever!


    ♥ Give Your Best To Relationships ♥

    A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her.
    The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed. The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised.
    That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn’t sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble.
    Moral of the story: If you don’t give your hundred percent in a relationship, you’ll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent..
    This is applicable for any relationship like love, employer-employee relationship etc., Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully.

    ♥ Mensagem de força♥

    "É muito fácil ser pedra, o difícil é ser vidraça"


    "A alegria é o fogo que mantém aquecido o nosso objetivo, e acesa a nossa inteligência. (Helen Keller)
    A alegria está na luta, na tentativa, no sofrimento envolvido. Não na vitória propriamente dita. (Mahatma Gandhi)
    A alegria evita mil males e prolonga a vida. (William Shakespeare)
    A alegria não está nas coisas: está em nós. (Goethe)
    A alegria, pedra filosofal que tudo converte em ouro. (Benjamin Franklin)
    A alma humana é como a água: ela vem do Céu e volta para o Céu, e depois retorna à Terra, num eterno ir e vir." (Goethe)

    ♥ Some one like you ♥


    Some one like you makes the heart seem the lighter,
    Some one like you makes the day's work worth while,
    Some one like you makes the sun shine the brighter,
    Some one like you makes a sigh half a smile.
    Life's an odd pattern of briers and roses,
    Clouds sometimes darken, no sun shining through,
    Then the cloud lifts and the sun light discloses
    Near to me, dear to me--Some one like you.

    Some one like you who stands steadfastly near me,
    Knows me and likes me for just what I am,
    Some one like you who knows just how to cheer me,
    Some one who's real without pretense or sham.

    Some one whose fellowship isn't a fetter
    Binding my freedom--who's loyal all through,
    Some one whose life in this world makes it better,
    Blest to me, best to me--Some one like you.

    Some one like you who's the same today and tomorrow,
    Firm as a rock and square as a die,
    Some one who's steadfast in joy or in sorrow,
    Some one who's dearer each day that goes by.

    Fortune is fickle and hope is deceiving,
    Comradeship ends and life changes all through,
    There's only one thread that runs all through the weaving,
    Fair to me, square to me--Some one like you.

    Never a trouble but you help me bear it,
    Just by the fellowship you have with me,
    Never a joy but I want you to share it,
    How far you fare or wherever you be.

    Never a burden but you make it lighter
    Just by your smile that I see creeping through,
    Never a glad hour but you make it brighter,
    Heart of me, part of me--Some one like you.

    How come the thoughts of you joyously welling
    Up like the water of springs bubbling clear,
    What a new joy everytime in the telling
    Some thing that always I want you to hear.

    Roses of June or the snows of December
    Gray be the skies or like azure the blue,
    Far be the day that I may not remember,
    Near to me, dear to me--Some one like you.

    Salt Lake City Temple

                 O templo é a casa do Senhor. A base de toda ordenança e convênio do templo, o ponto central do plano de salvação, é a Expiação de Cristo. Toda atividade, toda aula, tudo que fazemos na Igreja visa ao Senhor e Sua casa santa. Nosso empenho de proclamar o evangelho, aperfeiçoar os santos e redimir os mortos, tudo isso nos conduz ao templo. Todo templo santo é um símbolo de nossa condição de membros da Igreja,4 um sinal de nossa fé na vida após a morte e um passo sagrado rumo à glória eterna, para nós e nossa família.
    O Presidente Hinckley declarou: “Esses edifícios maravilhosos e singulares e as ordenanças neles realizadas representam o ponto máximo de nossa adoração. Essas ordenanças são as mais profundas expressões de nossa teologia”.5
    Entrar no templo é uma enorme bênção. Mas antes precisamos estar dignos. Não devemos apressar-nos. Não podemos encurtar nossa preparação e arriscar-nos a violar convênios que não estejamos preparados para fazer. Isso seria pior do que não fazê-los.
