Life is an eternal quest about knowing oneself. It's time to challenge yourself, to rediscover the hidden traits, talents, and tendencies. Several inconvenient questions, which have swept under the carpet, might resurface.“I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it -- I own everything about me: my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know -- but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me. However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am Okay.”

I am Me......!!!

Qualities of a Pencil
The five qualities of a Pencil which if we manage to hang on to, will make us persons who are always at peace with the world & with themselves.
- We are capable of great things, but we must never forget that there is a hand guiding our steps. We call that hand God, and He always guides us according to His will.
- Now and then, we have to stop writing & use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but afterwards, he's much sharper. So we, too, must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make us a better person.
- The pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing, it helps to keep us on the road to justice.
- What really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So we must always pay attention to what is happening inside us.
- It always leaves a mark. In just the same way, we should know that everything we do in life will leave a mark, so lets try to be conscious of that in our every action.

Death
I know its not a topic anyone likes to think about, but still I have a duty to make everybody think about the important things in life which I have realised. And death is possibly the most important thing. We are all walking towards death, but we never know when death will touch us and it is our duty, therefore, to look around us, to be grateful for each minute. But we should also be grateful to death, beacause it makes us think about the importance of each decision we take, or fail to take; it makes us stop doing anything that keeps us stuck in the category of the 'living dead' and, instead, urges us to risk everything, to bet everything on those things we always dreamed of doing, because, whether we like it or not, the angel of death is waiting for us.
Death as a daily companion says: ' I will touch you, but you don't know when. Therefore live life as intensely as you can and cherish every moment of it.'

Life.......
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 to help you figure out
who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be – a roommate, a
neighbor, a professor, a friend, a lover, or even a complete
stranger – but when you lock eyes with them, you know at
that very moment they will affect your life in some
profound way. Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible,
painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that
without overcoming those obstacles you would have never
realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and
sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.
Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would
be like a smoothly paved straight flat road to nowhere. It
would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly
pointless. The people you meet who affect your life, and the success
and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are
and who you become. Even the bad experiences can be
learned from. In fact, they are sometimes the most
important ones. If someone loves you, give love back to them in whatever
way you can, not only because they love you, but because in
a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your
heart and eyes to things. 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 whom you open
your heart. Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take
from those moments everything that you possibly can for
you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people
that you have never talked to before, and listen to what
they have to say. 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, it will be hard
for others to believe in you. You can make anything you wish of your life. Create your
own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no
regrets. And if you love someone tell them, for you never know
what tomorrow may have in store. Learn a lesson in life each day that you live! Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday. Think About it? Was it worth it?

I make this solemn promise to you....
To be your lover when you need to be loved,
your doctor when you are ill,
your army when you go to war,
your umbrella when life rains down on you,
your rock when you get weary,
your shield when you need defense,
your spirit when you are drained,
your pillow when you need to rest,
your voice when no one can hear you,
your ear when no one will listen,
your comfort when you feel pain,
your heroine when you are under duress,
your sunshine when darkness falls,
your answer when questions arise,
your inspiration to overcome obstacles,
your hand to hold when you are frightened,
your kiss that wakes you everyday,
and your "I love you" each and every night.
I am yours... all of me.

I am yours... all of me.
You light up my World...
Breeze skipping over water,
Water reflecting lights strung over the bridge,
Lights shining in your eyes.
The fresh, bold feeling of something new,
As winter melts into liquid spring,
And summer takes shape and ripens alongside love.
The petals from the flowering trees, snow for the summer,
Floating down around us as we kiss,
Once, twice, then forever.
You aren’t just my sunshine.
You're my sun.
Water reflecting lights strung over the bridge,
Lights shining in your eyes.
The fresh, bold feeling of something new,
As winter melts into liquid spring,
And summer takes shape and ripens alongside love.
The petals from the flowering trees, snow for the summer,
Floating down around us as we kiss,
Once, twice, then forever.
You aren’t just my sunshine.
You're my sun.

To The One I Love...
And if eternity is the time I must wait
Than I will wait all eternity
For as the earth crumbles away
My feelings are indestructible
And if you keep going on your way
Im afraid to say
I may always be trapped in this game
For as long as the sun rises
And the stars shine
My feeling for you will stay the same
Than I will wait all eternity
For as the earth crumbles away
My feelings are indestructible
And if you keep going on your way
Im afraid to say
I may always be trapped in this game
For as long as the sun rises
And the stars shine
My feeling for you will stay the same
