Inspirational Truths

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or help figure who you are or who you want to become.

You never know who these people may be; Your roommate, neighbour, professor, long lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger who, but when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in a very profound way.

And...sometimes things happen to you, and at the time, that may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, will power or heart.

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.

Without these small tests, if they be events, illness or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet who affect your life and the successes and downfalls you experience create who you are, and even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.

If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able experience it again.

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen, let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high.

Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.

You can make your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it!

Don't look back

As you travel through life there are always those times
When decisions just have to be made when the choices are hard,
And solutions seem scarce
and the rain seems to soak your parade!

There are some situations where all you can do
Is to simply let go and move on gather courage together
And choose a direction that carries you toward a new dawn.

So pack up your troubles and take a step forward…
The process of change can be tough,
But think about all the excitement ahead
If you can be stalwart enough!

There could be adventures you never imagined
Just waiting around the next bend
And wishes and dreams just about to come true
In ways you can't yet comprehend!

Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring
From new interests as you challenge your status quo
And learn there are so many options in life,
And so many ways you can grow!

Perhaps you'll go places you never expected
And see things that you've never seen
Or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds
And wonderful spots in between!

Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring-
A "somebody special" who's there to help you stay centred
And listen with interest to stories and feelings you share.

Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends are
Supportive of all that you do and believe that
Whatever decisions you make,
They'll be the right choices for you!

So keep putting one foot in front of the other
And taking your life day by day.
There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road.
Don't look back - you're not going that way!




Because you smiled

If at times you feel you want to cry
And life seems such a trial
Above the clouds there's a bright blue sky
To make your tears a smile

As you travel on life's way
With its many ups and downs
Remember it's quite true to say
One smile is worth a dozen frowns

Among the world's expensive things
A smile is very cheap
And when you give a smile away,
You get one back to keep

Happiness comes at times to all
But sadness comes unbidden
And sometimes a few tears must fall
Among the laughter hidden

So when friends have sadness on their face
And troubles round them piled
The world will seem a better place
And all because you smiled...
