" IF " IS SUCH A BIG WORD ~

If Is Such A Big Word......

If you determine your worth by comparing yourself with others you
could be comparing yourself to diamonds and coal all at once. It is
because we are different that each of us is special.


If you set your goals by what other people feel important you will
be setting goals for other people and not for yourself.
Only you know what is best for you.


If you take for granted the things closest to your heart you will be
missing out terribly in life. Cling to the things close to your
heart as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.


If you let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past
or the future the past will pass you by and the future will never
come. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days
of your life.


If you give up when you still have something to give you will never
receive anything. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop
trying.


If you are afraid to admit that you are less than perfect you will
never see yourself as you are meant to and as others are able to see
you. Imperfection is the fragile thread that binds us together.


If you are afraid to encounter risks none of your problems will ever
be solved and you will never progress to the next stage of life. It
is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave and grow.


If you shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find
it will never find you in your hiding place.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love.
The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly.
And the best way to keep love is to give it wings.


If you dismiss your dreams you will be without a vision for your
life.
To be without a dream is to be without hope.
To be without hope is to be without purpose.


If you run through life so fast that you forget not only where
you've been, but also where you are going, you will never reach your
destination in life. Life is not a race, but a journey to be
savoured each step of the way.
