Starting the Day...

I woke up early today.

There’s energy, warmth and peace after a good night’s sleep.

Outside I noticed the bright sunrise. I love its golden rays. 

(These are old photos, actually :) 

Then I remembered some good thoughts ..

In the morning,  (1) it’s good to sharpen my pencil and  
(2) get rid of the dusts after sharpening.

Sharpening means  I need to refine my thoughts and my ways. 

Since my mind is uncluttered, it is good  to renew strength and vitality.

It is best to sustain  learning and appreciation. 

Then (2) get rid of all the dusts. 

Get away from all the infections caused by worrying and whining.

No matter how difficult it may seem, I need to keep motivation and enthusiasm.  

It is my  responsibility to uplift my thoughts and spirit.

Let's get up and embrace this new day, friends!

Let's welcome friday!

God bless us!

New Leaf

Resolutions:

I’ll be better next year,

I’ll be wiser next year,
I'll be healthier next year,

I’ll be wealthier next year! 

And … I already said that last year. 

(Just like the other previous years) 

Again, I’ve realized …

Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. ~Proverbs 19:21 

It is good to make resolutions, but don’t expect much. Don't expect for things to happen the way you've always wanted. Blessings come in different ways and in different forms. Just act today, do your best, appreciate each day and  be grateful.  At the end of the day, only  the Lord’s purpose prevails.

Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. ~Lao Tzu
