" Life is a journey, not a single destination
We are all searching for happiness.
It's ok to feel 'lost' sometimes,
As it is in these lost times that we go inside ourselves
And find more of our hidden potential.
The next time you feel like life is going nowhere,
Take some quiet time to listen to the awesome power inside you.
It's there, just waiting to come out."

" While walking on the road of life, sometimes I felt helpless and tired, and life became so dark that I couldn't see a single light ahead. Suddenly, among the clouds, sparkling stars of the sky appear. I see one great power behind, which is always invisible and can only be felt; although in hard times, I always think I am alone. From that day, on which I started trusting that immortal power behind stars, I became so strong and brave. Now I can easily walk in the darkness of life without knowing the next step. Thus I hope one day, all darkness of my life will be turned into bright light."

" There are those people today who live the same life, day-in day-out - predictable, risk-free, dreamless. They are the harshest critics of those who choose to break free from this mundane existence. In this
world, too many people are afraid to pursue the life they truly desire, too afraid of being criticized by others, too afraid of failing, too afraid of not knowing the way. However, there are also those who
choose to follow their dreams, those who choose to rebel, those who strive to be free - those who live. Stay true to yourself. Break free from the chains of society - and live. May you too have the strength

" The human heart is full of dreams
Full of hope
Full of hate
Full of love
Full of fate
Full or fear
Of what we can't create
If you think you never will.... then you won't
Think of what you can, and what you wish to overcome.
Use the power of your heart, every ounce, every part
Never give up
Hold on to your dream
It must come true
For it means absolutely everything to you!
The harder you wish and the more you believe
The more you will overcome and the more you will achieve."

THE COMFORT ZONE
" I used to have a comfort zone
Where I knew I couldn't fail.
The same four walls and busy work
Were really more like jail.
I longed so much to do the things
I've never done before,
But I stayed inside my 'comfort zone'
And paced the same old floor.
I said it doesn't matter
That I wasn't doing much.
I said I didn't care for things
Like diamonds, furs and such.
I claimed to be so busy
With things inside the zone,
But deep inside I longed
For something special of my own.
I couldn't let my life go by
Just watching others win!
I held my breath and stepped outside
To let the change begin!
I took a step and with new strength
I'd never felt before,
I kissed my 'comfort zone' goodbye
And closed and locked the door.
If you are in a 'Comfort Zone'
Afraid to venture out,
Remember that all WINNERS were
At one time filled with doubt.
A step or two and words of praise
Can make your dreams come true
GREET YOUR FUTURE WITH A SMILE,
SUCCESS IS THERE FOR YOU!!"

" Happiness is the key to life. It doesn't matter how much you have, what you spend make, drive or wear. It all means nothing if you are not happy within yourself. Happiness is the richest thing we will ever own."

" Rejection or refusal is a temporary phase of life. Always give yourself another chance. Never surrender and don't give your last try in anything you may reattempt to do. Keep trying after every rejection and prepare yourself more strongly, wisely and make it happen. You are not a failure until you give up."
Written in 2011 by Krishna Sadh

Words of Encouragement.4.1.12
" Resentments are guaranteed to hinder our growth. We can never know full happiness when resentment clouds our vision. Why is it so hard for us to "forget" the small injuries of life? We have never been promised freedom from pain. Many of the lessons we are destined to learn will scuff our egos. But we will know happiness, completely, if we free our minds of resentments.
The formula for happiness is simple. We don't need material wealth, a perfect job, or an exceptional relationship. In fact, it's possible to know happiness with no job, very little money, and no significant other. Happiness is a by-product of a healthy attitude. And a healthy attitude is one that takes the normal turmoil of life. I am in charge of my attitude today. Happiness is a choice I can make regardless of what the people around me are doing."
A Woman's Spirit by Karen Casey --- Submitted by Steven Wingell
" The soul loves to meditate, for in contact with the Spirit lies its greatest joy. If, then you experience mental resistance during meditation, remember that reluctance to meditate comes from the ego; it doesn't belong to the soul."
Paramahansa Yogananda
" When I try hard, don't succeed and see only darkness; when I have no hope and decide to give it up, God shows omens of his existence and gives me the best I deserve."
