Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift.
When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours.
It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.
Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Anonymous ALL rivers, irrespective of their differences, flow unceasingly and unflaggingly to the sea. If we, too, continue to make persistent efforts, we will eventually reach the great ocean of happiness for ourselves and others. We will savour a life of boundless freedom and potential in which we ourselves shine brightly while celebrating and encouraging the individuality of others.

QQ We must always stand on the side of those suffering most wretchedly due to circumstances beyond their control. We must fight against those who are responsible for causing that misery! Let's be determined to contribute unceasingly and decisively to realizing peace and happiness for all mankind.

Kampung Girl Smile for the new alphabet

L is for libido, what happened to sex?
M is for memory; we forget what comes next.

O is for osteo, bones that don't grow!
P for prescriptions. We have quite a few,
Just give us a pill and we'll be good as new!

S is for sleepless nights, counting our fears,
T is for Tinnitus; bells in our ears!

Unknown Dear Ting
In loving we lose ourselves...our heart and soul to the other...
Sometimes it hurts, even badly at times
But after the pain is gone, remains the beauty.
And that is what makes love so special.
God bless!

Anonymous An inspiration a day turns the gloomy day away!
Another inspiration for the next day keeps us alert to challenge the new day!
Our words reveal our thoughts;
Our manners mirror our self-esteem;
Our actions reflect our character;
Our habits predict the future.
~William Arthur Ward~
Let us continue in our stand that we want a better Malaysia for all.
We will do something every day toward the direction of our goal.
