    Negativity

    Whenever you are shocked, taken aback, upset, angry, lost, sad, emotional, irrational, TELL YOURSELF, "Self, there has to be some other explanation". Change your mind. There is always a better thought! Tell yourself anything that makes you a happy productive person. Your thoughts are under YOUR contol, or at the very least, they can be. Find out what you need to be a happy productive person.

    Death

    Is a certain mindset inherent to those who die, based on how they lived? Those who want to die do not seam to be afforded a bold tragedy or quick painless death. Those who do not care one way or the other, but hope and be and do everything the best they can, so that they will be spared in the nicest way.....are.

     

    The way someone dies may be the actual visible measure of someone's invisible success. Die slowly if evil more than good occurred in your lifetime, and die quickly and painlessly for those that blessed more than took. Of course that would leave everyone in between with a death equivalent to the life they either respected or didn't.

    Happiness

    It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. So remind yourself everyday that you are lucky to have it, because any moment it may be gone. And even though once it was your choice, one day it won't be.

    To get what you want you have to be willing to live without it, or put major effort into earning it. That's why you see people with "it all" that are never happy and ironically those that are happy, don't appear to "have it all". Become complacent with anything and watch it's future change.

    The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes their way. Because only then can they live without regret if they have lived each day to the fullest trying their hardest.

    The Art Of Letting Go- Acceptance

    Accept the things you don't want to happen will, if you can accept this, it won't bother you when it happens.
    Accept the things you don't want to know will be revealed even faster, whether you want them to or not, but mostly because you don't want to know. 
    Accept that the people you think you can't live without, you can, then YOU will.

    The more uncomfortable IT is, the greater the reward. The more comfortable It is, the greater the loss.

    Cherish you and everything around you, or life will teach you the hard way.

    Live everyday like it was your last, but know that you'll live forever.

    Being worried is psychic for OMG. It was when you knew, but didn't know you knew.

    Whatever you do, life is about respect. Respecting how much impact the smallest things have.

    Love Quotes

    Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the romance and you find out you still care for that person.
    ~~~~~
    The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not twist them with our own image - otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
    ~~~~~
    It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
    ~~~~~
    “If you have love, you don’t need to have anything else.     If you don’t have it, it doesn’t matter much what else you have.”
    ~~~~~
    What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?
    ~~~~~
    Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.
    ~~~~~
    Love is when you forget about yourself because anothers happiness makes you happier than your own.
    Love is when you can't imagine imperfection.
    Love is being completely compelled to do something like you have never dreamed of doing.
    How u know when you are loved... 
    When they worry more about your happiness than theirs.
    When they forget the whole world when they are with you.
    When you are the first person they wake up to the thought of and the last they think about when they go to bed. When something beautiful reminds them of you.

    Word

    Imagine how much more refined our communication would be if we were to use the method below....if we knew we could never take back what we said in anger or ignorance....
     
    Jewish scribes solidified the following process for creating copies of the Torah and eventually other books in the Old Testament.

    1. They could only use clean animal skins, both to write on, and even to bind manuscripts.
    2. Each column of writing could have no less than forty-eight, and no more than sixty lines.
    3. The ink must be black, and of a special recipe.
    4. They must verbalize each word aloud while they were writing.
    5. They must wipe the pen and wash their entire bodies before writing the word "Jehovah," every time they wrote it.
    6. There must be a review within thirty days, and if as many as three pages required corrections, the entire manuscript had to be redone.
    7. The letters, words, and paragraphs had to be counted, and the document became invalid if two letters touched each other. The middle paragraph, word and letter must correspond to those of the original document.
    8. The documents could be stored only in sacred places (synagogues, etc).
    9. As no document containing God's Word could be destroyed, they were stored, or buried, in a genizah - a Hebrew term meaning "hiding place." These were usually kept in a synagogue or sometimes in a Jewish cemetery.

    The final item is why we have no original manuscripts of the Old Testament today.

    After Jerusalem was sacked by Rome in the First Century, the process was lost. While a Hebrew version of the Old Testament continued to exist, the language wasn't spoken by many. Greek and eventually Latin versions continued to be copied.
