I go there not to be comfortable,but to conquer new worlds.
Consider not your losses,but the victories you have yet to achieve.
The more your struggles are,the sweeter also will be your success.
Protect your vision. At times it is more important than your present accomplishments.
You have a dream. You may not know it yet,but it is there,
embedded in the deepest part of your heart.
live with no regrets!
There is a whole galaxy within you,waiting to be unleashed.
Let the universe wait no more.
Be not afraid of your own beauty.
Shine forth your light and forget not who you really are.
Always reach towards the sacred center of your being.
Within it is always some hidden reserve of power.
It is not enough that you know yourself and what you’re worth.
You have to show the world who you really are.
You have a dream. You may not know it yet,but it is there,
embedded in the deepest part of your heart.
I bare my nakedness to the world
that the world may see who I am, not the mask that hides my flaws,
not the mask that hides my beauty.
“I am blessed this moment, I am embraced, I surrender only to love.”
“Let nothing frighten you whatsoever. You are a child of eternity.”
Never ever give up. There is no goal too difficult for those who believe in their destiny
Heaven is so much nearer than we often think it to be.

“My Son, let not the fair and subtle sayings of men move thee.
For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
(1) Give ear to My words, for they kindle the heart and enlighten the mind,
they bring contrition, and they supply manifold consolations.
Never read thou the word that thou mayest appear more learned or
wise; but study for the mortification of thy sins, for this will
be far more profitable for thee than the knowledge of many
difficult questions.
2. “When thou hast read and learned many things, thou must always
return to one first principle. I am He that teacheth man
knowledge,(2) and I give unto babes clearer knowledge than can
be taught by man. He to whom I speak will be quickly wise and
shall grow much in the spirit. Woe unto them who inquire into
many curious questions from men, and take little heed concerning
the way of My service. The time will come when Christ will
appear, the Master of masters, the Lord of the Angels, to hear
the lessons of all, that is to examine the consciences of each
one. And then will He search Jerusalem with candles,(3) and the
hidden things of darkness(4) shall be made manifest, and the
arguings of tongues shall be silent.
3. “I am He who in an instant lift up the humble spirit, to learn
more reasonings of the Eternal Truth, than if a man had studied
ten years in the schools. I teach without noise of words,
without confusion of opinions, without striving after honour,
without clash of arguments. I am He who teach men to despise
earthly things, to loathe things present, to seek things
heavenly, to enjoy things eternal, to flee honours, to endure
offences, to place all hope in Me, to desire nothing apart from
Me, and above all things to love Me ardently.
4. “For there was one, who by loving Me from the bottom of his
heart, learned divine things, and spake things that were
wonderful; he profited more by forsaking all things than by
studying subtleties. But to some I speak common things, to
others special; to some I appear gently in signs and figures, and
again to some I reveal mysteries in much light. The voice of
books is one, but it informeth not all alike; because I inwardly
am the Teacher of truth, the Searcher of the heart, the Discerner
of the thoughts, the Mover of actions, distributing to each man,
as I judge meet.”
-The Imitation of Christ, Thomas Kempis
Who do people say you are?
Do you believe them?
Do you hate yourself afterwards
because they have made you feel worthless?
People may be mirrors that help us
reflect the truth
and they do help us a lot of times.
But there are times when the very mirrors
we are counting on
are marred
and broken
and cannot reflect the truth that we wanted to see
Who do people say you are?
What images have they formed in your mind?
Are these images accurate after all?
Are the mirrors you’re using
clear
well illuminated
true?
