good bye friends, brothers and sisters

That which serves as a reminder; a remembrancer; a memento; a keepsake. Beauty is ever to the lonely mind a shadow fleeting; she is never plain. She is a visitor who leaves behind the gift of grief, the souvenir of pain.
we will meet again, When we're least expecting it, One day in some far off place, we will recognize each other faces , we won't say goodbye friends, For all of us will meet again.
Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes.

end of the semester

it is almost the end of the semester. it is the sad moment of esl.everyone goes home, and some stay. whats will become our friendship? it is the moment to say good bye. it is also the moment to remember all your friend from esl. share addresses, exchanges emails everthing that can make us keep in touch.remember we are now like brother and sister, and we never know where we can meet one day in the world. it is so wonderful to see one of your former classmate in your country for visit or for work. that will be a good day for each of you. it will make our parent so happy to see that we have made friend from evey part of the world. interresting isn't it??

sadness and happiness in life ''in god i trust''

“Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity. When in such sadness I earnestly elevated my spirit into God and locked my whole heart and mind along with all my thoughts and will therein, ceaselessly pressing in with God's Love and Mercy, and not to cease until he blessed me.Anger, tears and sadness are only for those who have given up.

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.The basic thing is that everyone wants happiness, no one wants suffering. And happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors. If your own mental attitude is correct, even if you remain in a hostile atmosphere, you feel happy.

When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people, hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within.Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

life

Three passions have governed my life: The longings for love, the search for knowledge, And unbearable pity for the suffering of human kind. Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness. In the union of love I have seen In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision Of the heavens that saints has imagined. With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of people.
I have wished to know why the stars shine. Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens, But always pity brought me back to earth; Cries of pain reverberated in my heart Of children in famine, of victims tortured And of old people left helpless. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, And I too suffer. This has been my life; I found it worth living.

challenge in my life

We will have an unchallenged, open, panoramic opportunity on a global scale to demonstrate the finest aspects of what we know in this country: peace, freedom, democracy, human rights, benevolent sharing, love, the easing of human suffering. Is that going to be our list of priorities or not?I'm an optimist. I've always believed the future is going to be better than the past. And I also believe I have a role in that. The great thing about human beings, myself in particular, is that I can change. I can do better. If you can get up every day, stay optimistic, and believe the future is better than the past, those few things get you through a lot of tough times.My family gave me values that have sustained me through situations that would challenge any person. My personal relationship with the Lord inspires me in all I do.

always help people who need help

“Nothing brings me more happiness than trying to help the most vulnerable people in society. It is a goal and an essential part of my life - a kind of destiny. Whoever is in distress can call on me. I will come running wherever they are.
Helping people in need is a good and essential part of my life, it's a kind of destiny God likes help when helping people

what is life

I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here, and what the question might mean. I might think about it a little bit, but if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else. But I don't have to know an answer.... I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn't frighten me

life life life

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 1o% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.

''love'' why love ? if you have to get hurt or to be betray

ave you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”but sometime i like to take riks
Love comes to those who still hope even though they've been disappointed, to those who still believe even though they've been betrayed, to those who still love even though they've been hurt before.
”Falling in love with someone isn't always going to be easy... Anger... tears... laughter.. It's when you want to be together despite it all. That's when you truly love another. I'm sure of it.
To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

you mean the world to me

My mother is extremely special to me and I love her more than words could explain.
She's protected me, listened to me, never judged me, or tried to choose for me. She's always been there right behind me. If I fell she would catch me and hold me. She wouldn't let go till I was sure I wanted to try it again. I can't remember a time when she wasn't there for me and I doubt I ever will.
My mother, my best friend, my angel, my world - it's her who sheds love, laughter, and endless happiness to my life.

my mother , my Angel
Right when I was bornthe lord sent me an angel.An angel to protect me,An angel to watch over and love me.I always sought advise from herall throughout the years.I depended on her every thought.And it was always herwho wiped away my tears.She taught me many things -"To always speak from the heart".She always showed she loved and cared,It her to always understand.

She never intentionally hurt me,and for thatshe has all my love.She's the angel -The angel sent from high above.She knows most of my secrets,right down to my first kiss.She knows my length of patienceand still she always forgives.All she has to do is look at me,and deep down within my soulshe'd seeIf I was hurt, scared, or happy.She knows all the sides to me.She was the one who carried me throughthose nine painful months.The one who made me the lady I amAnd the woman I'll become.God must have had a really good day,when he sent you here for me.Of all the angels in heaven,You were meant for me.

for my mother

When I was little and I criedYou lovingly held me, and let the last tear fall,When I would scrape my kneeYou'd bandage it up and say "be careful".When my birthday was horrible, you smiledAnd promised the next would be perfect.When I would lose my temper,You had a way to calm me down.When my friends left me behind,You gave me ice cream and said"they'll come around"When I had a nightmareYou'd tuck me in your bed andReassured me you'd never let harm find me.When my 7th grade crush liked another,You made me see it was his loss.When it was my sweet 16You threw me a party fit for a princess.And made it a day I would always remember.When the love of my life left me alone,So sweetly you said, "This too shall pass."When I broke your heart with disappointmentYou came to me and said, "I still love you".I know that you think that I forgot all this,And take all you sacrificed for granted,But that's just not true.At times I'm stubborn, as well as you,But never doubt for half a second thatI love you.Although I am growing up and someday soon,I'll have to bandage my own knee,You'll always be the bet mother.And I'll always be your little girl.

I am

I am ...A womanWith a full heart, hiddenSomewhere in an empty room ...With eyes not quite of autumn's gold, and yetNeither all of summer's green;I wonder ...If love is a tale made for children --A granting of sweet dreams in their innocence --A honey-coating to help their throatsChoke down the bitter draught ...I hear ...A voice that whispers warnings, half-formed,Bodiless as hope, until I swear I cannot drawAnother breath unless this spectre be unmasked,His lies mangled ‘neath my righteous tread;I see ...A woman, proud, uncompromising,Diaphanous as air -- less, even, than the tearsThat fall in desolation about her weary feet,Salt poison pooled upon the withered ground ...I want ...A measure of quietude, a certain silence,The echo of alone which heals me of dreaming,The nothing that stills the wanting,The numb, the cold that laughs at pain;I amA woman,hidden ...I pretend ...That I can live forever -- that TimeHas no puissance but that which I afford Him --And so, I can wait, I can be happy tomorrow,Sleep is for the dead; but its ghosts haunt my waking ...I feel ...Too much -- too deeply to be directionless,Too real for imagining, and yet the familiar eyesHold nothing of recognition -- only my reflection --A meeting of shadows in sunlit glass;I touch ...The downy wings of hope, in wonder,In reverence, in need, in hunger;Alas, it burns my fingers as a flame,A sacrilege, self-defined ...I worry ...That I am alone; that in my longingI have forsaken all -- but oh, what reward,What smile divine should light the path to freedom --And how can I but heed the siren's call?I cry ...For having too much, for fear of bursting,And then, when by the pouring of my soulI lie, a vessel emptied, I cry againFor what was had, and lost;I amA woman,empty ... I understandThat life is what you make it,That sometimes, the coat of many colorsThat marks your triumphs brightly, blends onlyTo loneliest of grey ...I sayThat we are made by life, shaped,Broken, perhaps -- unmade and voided --But always, the core of us remains, waitingWith only faith, with trust, to be reborn;I dreamOf bluest waters, reachingWith unnatural hands toward the faded sky,Of dolphins that wander in seas without limits,Carrying me water-breathing past corals and clouds ...I try ...To lead by example, knowingThat merely the telling holds no power;A gift of giving is merely a day, whileA gift of knowing spans forever;I hope ...That my darkness holds you gently,That pain is halved by sharing, that feelingWields nothing past the words it summons,Except that it touch you with only healing ...
I am only A woman.

life is wonderful. we have to profit on it and do good things.everyday people died, other get sick, so when we wake up every morning we have to pray and thank god to have good healthgod is great because when you wake up and you see that you breath you can feel that you are alive.

i like thinking about people in world because of a curiosity. i want to know how other people live. i mean real life. some people are poor some are rich, but we don't have to forget that to help each other is very important because people always say one day for you and another day for another person. you can have evrything you want today,but tomorow you wil see your friend with the same thing or more than what you have had, so in this life we need to helps each other and care about. we are all human, we are also sister, brother, father, mother, kids, uncle, aunt,etc....

however forgive is a better way to forgot. it doesn't matter how many time you have been hurt, always forgive. forgiveness is a better ways to forget, but if you don't forgive you will never forget. only god have the right for revenge not human. it is human love, but is also human to forgive. forgiveness is better than revenge have faith is the key for all temptation,so i forgive and forget.
