Unity in diversity

Cultural differences should not separate us from each other, but rather cultural diversity brings a collective strength that can benefit all of humanity.

Thinking of you

As I walked outside, And looked up at the sky, It seemed like the clouds wanted to cry, They were so nice,  They reminded me of your eyes, Now all I can think of is you, Calling me by your side, As I continue to walk,  I couldn't help but to let out a sigh, As tears rolled out of my eyes, And wishing I could be once again by your side.

Forgive others, Not because they deserve forgiveness, But because you deserve peace.

FOREVER DOES NOT EXIST

Everything is ephemeral. On a long enough timeline, everything ends.

The relationship you are in now will end. The happiness you will experience tomorrow will end. The depression you feel today will end. Your life will eventually end. Nothing lasts forever, not even those diamonds in the advertisement.

And yet we live our lives like the best things will continue into perpetuity, like the good stuff will stick around and the bad stuff will go away once we obtain everything we want. But, good or bad, life is limited, everything is eventual, the ending is inevitable.

Feel warm and fuzzy yet? No? Well maybe you should. The most important reason to live in the moment is that nothing lasts forever. So why not enjoy the moment while it’s infront of you? Why not be present? Why not accept life for what it is: a finite span of time with infinite possibilities.

Why not treat your friends with utter respect? Why not treat your lover to your full attention? Why not treat today like it matters? You can do so if you live in the moment.

We needn't wait until a special occasion to show the people in our lives that we love them. We simply need to say the words and show it in our actions. We can do so today—not on their birthday or Christmas or next week—we can do it today.

One of the best ways we've discovered to live in the moment is to clear your plate. Give it a shot—for a day, a week, a month, forever (or until your forever ends).

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, But by the moments that take our breath away.

“May the New Year bring you courage to break your resolutions early! My own plan is to swear off every kind of virtue, so that I triumph even when I fall!”

Nothing in the year gone by can be called bad as even the unpleasant incidents have given you a lesson and added to your experience. You cannot build a brighter tomorrow without coming out from the ruins of the past. 

Hope you are blessed with sunshine of laughter, new beam of energy and raindrops of happiness as you step into another brand New year.

Make every moment worth remembering so that when you grow old and look back you can enjoy it the second time. Happy New Year 2014! Let this New Year be the one to see introduction of new changes that will make you a better person.

May success kiss you feet and prosperity chase wherever you go.

"Malala Yousafzai becomes a symbol of peace"

The teenage protestor has been standing up to the Taliban since she was 11, advocating for children's education. Last year, she was shot in the head, and it didn't look like she'd survive. She did, wrote a book about the experience, and continues her mission. She was rumored to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize this year at 16, which would make her the youngest nominee ever. (Nominations are kept secret for 50 years.) Yousafzai didn't win - the honor went to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) - but her dreams remain big: She hopes to one day become the prime minister of Pakistan.

"Diana Nyad swims from Cuba to Florida"

The professional distance swimmer tried to stroke her way through over 100 miles of shark- and jellyfish-infested water four times between 1978 and 2012, failing each attempt. In September on her fifth attempt, the 64-year-old Nyad finally completed her ambitious swim. Her story and success inspired her fans, whom she told: "You're never too old to chase your dreams."
