Be like a floral bouquet
Call People by Name. The sweetest music to anyone's ears is the sound of his/her own name.
Be Alert to give Service..... What we do for others counts most in life...
If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours!
Learn to understand first and to be understood second.
Don't underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear,
an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn
a life around....
Life ends when you stop Dreaming, Hope ends when you stop Believing,
Love ends when you stop Caring, Friendship ends when you stop Sharing...
Every moment, every situation, every issue and every concern has a positive side.
Find it and bring it to life....
Be Genuinely Interested in People. If you try, you can like everybody, and
Everybody will like you.....
When you find a Dream inside your heart
Don't ever let it go
For Dreams are the tiny seeds from
Which Beautiful Tomorrows Grow
Believe in your Dreams

That was a very touching one, weemam. I have it added to my favorites. Sometimes, we we're all stressed out with doing a lot of things, that we forget to do the little but equally important things around us. We forget to take a deep breathe for a while and took stock of our life. The people around us most especially our love ones should be given more time and attention too. Thank you for sharing it.

How truely beautiful, my 82yr old Mother always tells me the same things, be a smile on someones face, learn to listen not only with your ears but also with your heart, and never forget to give away a hug to someone who is without one. God Bless and wouldn't it be lovely to have a section on poems for the day.

Lovely, my friend.
If everyone takes the time to do those things which are suggested, I guess, this world will not be that unfeeling today.
Thanks for posting this one in here. It's an eye opener.

So nice and real expression in words..mind blowing.This real fact is worth not with money but time as by money but with every time and moment we lead our life ahead. As time is compared with money so.. these precious words are compared with time not money as our social life's happniness and traquility could exists with maintaining practically according to the sense of these sentences.

This is indeed beautiful weemam but the reality of life is ugly, harsh and painful.
Yes, I'm a cynic. I wasn't always. I had dreams and I believed and hoped, I loved unconditionally, cared deeply and shared everything I had, I thought I had love and friends. I was there when someone needed me and quick and eager to help. I've always been interested, and tried to treat everyone as if I like them.
But I've been lied to cheated, kicked, beaten, thrown out of home, stolen from, ripped off, talked about, laughed at, it's just too sad to go on.
It's hard for me to trust anyone now. I still try to make friends but true, good friends are very rare. People seem to have limits with other people that they didn't have before. I limit myself now. I don't give so much or love so much or care, hope...etc etc.....sad.

Just a simple nod or hello can uplift a person's feeling. Wherever you go, make sure that you make nice to everybody. Although you cannot please everybody, but having a personality that you are nice to everyone by just smiling or simple compliments will be highly appreciated by someone. Unexpectedly you can be a surprise to them. Sometimes we may feel some hesitancy to approach someone because we will think that they might not respond to us, but if our intention is genuine it will turn out to be good. So, let us be true to everybody and in turn we will receive the same.

Hi Weemam, well your friend surely knew exactly what they were talking about when sending this email to you and they are right. It is lovely to hear our name called and especially what we do for other, to care for someone else is really special and you always will feel a lot happier within yourself for making someone else happy. Yes I believe in my dreams and by putting them into motion you can fulfill your own dreams and possibly this will help others as well.
