Destiny
Sow a thought, reap an act
Sow an act, reap a habit
Sow a habit, reap a character
Sow a character, reap a destiny
The 'NTU' student's psalm 23
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not flunk.
He keepeth me from lying down when I should be studying.
He leadeth me beside the water cooler for a study break.
He restores my understanding in lecture notes.
He leads me to better studying habits for my grades' sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of confusion,
I will not have a nervous breakdown,
For thou art with me.
Thy faithfulness and thy grace, they secure me.
Thou giveth me the light in moments of blankness.
Thou anointest my head with answers,
My test paper runneth over with questions I know,
Surely high grades and flying colours
Shall follow me all the subjects of this semester,
And I shall not have to dwell in NTU forever!!!!
Amen.
Be An Angel
Reach for the stars
Keep your halo polished
Share your favorite things with others
Plant a garden for the butterflies
Say something nice to someone everyday
Be patient with those who don't fly as fast as you do
Talk to the plants to help them grow
Always tell the truth
Think good thoughts
Sprinkle a little startdust wherever you go

Friends
When God gives us life,
He opens several new doorways for us,
Several paths to choose from,
Several ways to go.
He also gives us the wisdom..
To discern right from wrong,
To make decisions and to think,
To seek light when it is dark,
To find happiness in times to sorrow...
He gives us the power
To pick up people along the way
To make a special placce for them in our hearts
Share our lives and call them FRIENDS
"I wish for you..."
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Faith so that you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Have a wonderful day.
Happiness
When an explaination is asked for your behaviour, you don’t know;
you probably finished up very lamely like the man in the song and said, ‘It’s just your way'…
And in the same way that you cannot explain its nature you cannot explain its origin.
One thing is certain; you didn’t make it, it just came.
So it is with happiness. You cannot make it. She is a coquette.
Follow her and she eludes you; turn from her and focus on something else, and you may win her.
Set out with the express purpose of finding her and you are doomed to failure.
But discover the meaning that lies behind your life, and happiness will come home to you.
*~ I Just Wanted to Say....~*
If tomorrow, I should never wake up, I wanted to say I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for what I've done, and what I haven't done. I could have done more, I should have done more.
If I harmed you, yelled at you, ignored you, or didn't care... I'm sorry
If tomorrow, I should never wake up, I wanted to say Thank you.
If me and you were the best of friends, thank you for always being there.
If me and you only talked once and a while, and didn't Go to the same parties, and were.... not good friends: Thank you for humbling me.
You are not perfect, but I am not either, but thank you for having a part in my life.
If tomorrow, I should never wake up, I wanted to say everything I never had time to.
May your troubles be less.
And your blessings be more.
And nothing but happiness,
Come through your door.
Between Frenz
It's something no one can replace
It's something of emaculate grace
You're my friend through thick and thin
My favourite person that makes me grin
My buddy through good times and bad
You always stood by me when I was sad
You picked me up when I was low
Your friendship and love will always grow
I would give up the world
If friends we could be
You know you mean the world to me
I love you...
LOVING YOU AND WISHING YOU THE BEST
I asked God to send me his friends....He sent you.
I asked God to take away my pain. God said,
No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. God said, No.
His spirit was whole, his body is only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience. God said,
No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness. God said, No. I give you blessings. Happiness is up to you.
I asked God to spare me pain. God said, No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow. God said, No. You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. God said, No. I asked God to help me LOVE others as much as He loves me.
God said......Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.

The wife explains that he must be in tune with her emotional needs as a Woman.
The husband realizes that nothing is going to happen tonight and he might as well deal with it.
So the next day the husband takes her shopping at a big department store.
He walks around and has her try on three very expensive outfits.
She can't decide.
He tells his wife to take all three of them.
Then they go over and get matching shoes worth $200 each.
And then they go to the Jewellery Dept where she gets a set of diamond earrings.
The wife is so excited. She thinks her husband has flipped out but she does not care.
She goes for the tennis bracelet.

She says "I am ready to go, let's go to the cashier."
The husband stops and says, "No, honey I don't feel like buying all this stuff now."
The wife's face goes blank.
"Honey - I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while."
The look on her face is indescribable and she is about to explode
and the husband says, "You must be in tune with my financial needs as a Man."
RESEMBLANCE
We are most like beasts when we kill.
We are most like men when we judge.
We are most like God when we forgive.

Horace Mann’s gem: “Lost, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone forever"
To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing."
Kindness in words creates confidence, Kindness in thinking creates profoundness, Kindness in giving creates love."
Love will die if held too tightly
Love will fly if held too lightly
BEAUTIFUL WORDS TO LIVE BY
* Anger is a condition in which the tongue works faster than the mind.
* You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying over the future.
* All people smile in the same language.
* A hug is a great gift..one size fits all. It can be given for any occasion and it's easy to exchange.
* If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for.
If one day you feel like crying...
Call me.
I don't promise that I will make you laugh,
But I can cry with you.
If one day you want to run away--
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you to stop...
But I can run with you.
If one day you don't want to listen to anyone...
Call me.
I promise to be there for you.
And I promise to be very quiet.
But if one day you call...
And there is no answer...
Come fast to see me.
Perhaps I need you.
