Random Thoughts 1

random thoughts

I often sleep and  wake up early even before  sunrise. 
I believe that most uplifting ideas are hidden  in the morning
especially when we have uncluttered thoughts.

Birds are awesome and happy creatures. 
I admire them. Every morning,  I can hear them singing. 
Their melodies might be the same each day  but they would
remind me to remain cheerful  and care free!

I spend enough time for physical activities like  sweeping, walking, cleaning... 
I would do them enthusiastically. 
I believe that 'happy hormones' are being released into our brains during those times. 
It’ll be good for  mental and  physical well-being.

‘Anger’ and ‘Envy’ are powerful and effective facial creams.
In no time, they’ll make you ugly. (inside out)
***
I don’t wanna be perfect. I’m starting to appreciate 
my imperfections. 
Experience tells me that ‘perfect people' or
'perfectionists’ are unhappy people.

Take good care and respect  Mother Nature. 
She’ll take care and provide for you in the future. 
My father keeps on planting trees and nurtures them. 
Now, we’re reaping the fruits of his labor. 
Most probably the produce will  last for more generations.

Green-eyed Monster

Envy, a monster  we often fail to recognize.  A fierce foe to conquer because he will squeeze the  joy and life out of his victim. And yes, I have to deal with him too,  from time to time.

Envy is the art of counting the other fellow's blessings instead of your own. ~Harold Coffin 


Envy is a symptom of lack of appreciation of our own uniqueness and self worth. Each of us has something to give that no one else has. ~Elizabeth O'Connor 

Our envy always lasts longer than the happiness of those we envy. ~François Duc de La Rochefoucauld 

Blessed is he who has learned to admire but not envy, to follow but not imitate, to praise but not flatter, and to lead but not manipulate. ~William Arthur Ward 

Instead of focusing on what others have that I don’t, I thank God for what I do have. And before I know it, I forget what I’m envious about because I’m drowning in a sea of blessings. ~Rissa S. Kawpeng
