Story of Two Friends Walking Through the Desert


This story tells of two friends walking through the desert. During some point of the journey, they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand, and now, you write on a stone. Why?" The other friend replied, "When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand, where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. When someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone, where no wind can ever erase it." Learn to write your hurts in sand, and to carve your benefits in stone.

Just for Today


  • Decide to be happy today, to live with what is yours - your family, your business, your job, your luck. 
  • If you can't have what you like, maybe you can like what you have.
  • Just for today, be kind, cheerful, agreeable, responsive, caring, and understanding. 
  • Be your best, dress your best, talk softly, look for the bright side of things. 
  • Praise people for what they do and don't criticize them for what they cannot do. 
  • If someone does something stupid, forgive and forget. After all, it's just for one day.
  • Who knows, it might turn out to be a nice day.

Forgive Them



People are often unreasonable, 
irrational, and self-centered; 
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, 
people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; 
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, 
you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies; 
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere 
people may deceive you; 
Be honest and sincere anyway. 

What you spend years creating 
others could destroy overnight; 
Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, 
some may be jealous; 
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today. 
will often be forgotten; 
Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, 
and it may never be enough; 
Give your best anyway. 

In the final analysis, 
it is between you and God; 
It was never between you and them anyway.

Realize Value of Time


Always Remember



Always remember to forget 
The things that made you sad 
But never forget to remember 
The things that made you glad. 

Always remember to forget 
The friends that proved untrue. 
But don't forget to remember 
Those that have stuck by you. 

Always remember to forget 
The troubles that have passed away. 
But never forget to remember 
The blessings that come each day.

Rumi Quotes

  • One day You will take my heart completely and make it more fiery than a dragon. Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
  • Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.

It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace. ~ Dalai Lama

      • All things are created twice. There’s a mental or first creation, and a physical or second creation of all things. You have to make sure that the blueprint, the first creation, is really what you want, that you’ve thought everything through. Then you put it into bricks and mortar. Each day, you go to the construction shed and pull out the blueprint to get marching orders for the day. You begin with the end in mind. ~ Stephen Covey

      • Circumstances may cause interruptions and delays, but never lose sight of your goal. Prepare yourself in every way you can by increasing your knowledge and adding to your experience, so that you can make the most of opportunity when it occurs. ~ Mario Andretti
