15 Things to Live By


15 things to live by
Lala’s Top Picks

1. Saying someone is ugly doesn't make you any prettier.
2. The only normal people you know are the ones you don’t know very well.
3. It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.
4. Never do something permanently foolish just because you are temporarily upset.
5. People are more what they hide than what they show.
6. Sometimes people don’t notice the things others do for them until they stop doing them.
7. Don’t listen to what people say, watch what they do.
8. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie.  Don’t save it for a special occasion; today is special.
9. Love and appreciate your parents.  We are often so busy growing up, we forget they are also growing old.
10. Learn to love yourself first, instead of loving the idea of other people loving you.
11. When someone tells you, “You've changed,” it might simply be because you've stopped living your life their way.
12. No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life.  Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs
13. What you do every day matters more than what you do every once in a while
14. You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.
15. Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me


Philippians 4:13

Family Matters

FAMILY Family has many definitions but when you sum it up it’s who is closest to you that we consider our immediate family. Family is a destination where you feel at home, you feel loved and most importantly you know that regardless of what happens you will be there for each other no matter what. Each day we hear and read stories about people dying and missing although most of us never consider these situations if they aren’t close to home. Why is that? It shouldn’t take a death, or injury to wake up and realize that foolishness is foolishness and as long as you keep it going it will carry on from generation to generation. Is this fair? Must we raise our children to be biased, unforgiving, selfish and misunderstood? The behavior of a child is most often a reflection of how he/she is being raised in they’re home. Let’s consider this when raising our children ensuring that they are given a chance in life to love and not hate. The importance of having a good family relati...
