Lei's Myriad Inspirations

  There is comfort in being nice when you expect nothing in return. Don't be nice merely because you want to be liked for it. It would be like appeasing egotistically and your heart may fill up with emptiness instead of smiles. When other people treat you poorly, keep doing you. Never let anyone's bitterness change the person you are. I remember my grandfather once told me, that if there comes a moment when I feel really mad at someone who wronged me and wanted to get even, I must will myself to say something nice about that person. And if I did, the feeling of revenge would fade and I could go on living my life with a light heart.  12182014

ℒℴѵℯ is at the heart of the world,  just as it is at the heart of your life. When our hearts are in a state of coherence, we more easily experience feelings such as ℒℴѵℯ, care, appreciation and compassion. On the other hand, feelings such as irritation, anger, greed, hurt and envy are more likely to occur  when the mind and heart are out of alignment.   12172014

In His light, we must develop an appetite for sweetness  that is possible in this world and bring us capable of loving without conditions. True love never fails and naturally sweetens our heart with gratitude. Our happiness depends on the habit of mind we cultivate. The practice of happy thinking every day is always a good objective. Cultivate the merry heart, develop the happiness habit  and life will become a continual feast.✿ 12162014

Indeed it was a joyride, an overdrive to nostalgia-- viewed from the spectrum of being in one of those shoes many years back and joining in the melodic fade out lalalala... That military training act brazed such creative rendition that my salutation seemed like the roof was on fire. We realized that hard lessons were learned inside the classroom and out of it. We were caught in certain crossroads and faced questions each time we woke up and deal with life, Of love phases which bloomed and doomed-- bittersweet, yeah right. But with a smile, we have to go on to unveil fresh chapters and truth sinks in that we're not too young at all. Those friendships and kinships that were enveloped with crazy vibes and seriousness, and in time, will grow out of their old habits until they part ways. Truth to tell, true ones remain unshaken. Ngunit ngayon kay bilis maglaho ng kahapon. Sana'y huwag kalimutan ang ating mga pinagsamahan. Freedom and letting go

Follow your inner moonlight,  don't hide the madness. Only when you are aware  of your uniqueness  will you begin to have  a sense of your own worth. It is truly an amazing feat  to be your true self amidst a world that is  splattered with varied changes. If we celebrate our uniqueness,  the world will, too. It believes exactly what we tell it— through the words we use  to describe ourselves, the actions we take  to care for ourselves, and the choices we make  to express ourselves. Tell the world we are  one-of-a-kind creation who came here to experience wonder and spread joy. Expect to be accommodated.☆•*¨*•.¸ 12152014

I know not how to paint,  but I know, for sure,  that we color the world  with whatever we put our hearts into.  So when you see the details, the colors and irony of Life, let your soul appreciate the interest, affection, compassion that goes into it. In the many superimposed rainbows of my Life, I will never run out of gratefulness and would always remember to  bring back the glory of appreciation to Him.♡ 12142014

Most times in my life, I make it a point to look back to remember the awesome memories, to remember the positive lessons I have learned,  to help someone else learn from what I have lived and to see how far I have come. And these memories lose their meaning when I think of love as something new. Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. And grateful am I for the smiles in my heart brought about by the strength and compassion that I continuously gain through my journey in life...♡♡♡ #TYL   #angelsnotebook   #100thankfuldays (Picture posted : John Lennon's original lyrics for In My Life, 1965) 12132014
