I might not be someone's first choice, but I am a great choice. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not, because I'm good at being me. I might not be proud of some of the things I've done in the past, but I'm proud of who I am today. I may not be perfect... but I don't need to be. Take me as I am, or watch me as I walk away.

Do not tell a friend anything you would conceal from an enemy.

If you want to feel rich, just count all of the things you have that money can't buy. 

"A happy man marries the girl he loves; a happier man loves the girl he 
marries.

Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: A man's status will be raised in Paradise & he will ask, 'How did I get here?' He will be told, 'By your Child duaa's (Supplication) for forgiveness for you.' (Ibn Majah:3660 Saheeh al-Jaami':1617) Wow. What a beautiful Hadith. Our parents deserve this from us.



When we lose a job, or find ourselves unable to marry who we want, or something is taken from us, have we ever stopped to consider the possibility that it may have been for our own good? Allah tells us in the Quran: "But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not." [Quran]

Relationship/Marriage

Relationship Is Like Tajmahal...♥ ♥
Everybody Will Wonder How Beautiful It Is.
But Nobody Can Understand How Difficult It Was To Build.



A real man never stops trying to show a girl how much he cares about her, even after hes already got her.

Life

Life whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart. Sometimes, when you don't have the time to listen... Life throws a brick at your head. It's your choice: Listen to the whispers of your soul or wait for the brick. Do you sometimes ignore loved ones because your life is too fast and busy leaving them to wonder whether you really love them?




Life is much like FACEBOOK.
People will like your problems n comment...
but no one gonna solve them,
Because everybody seems so busy in updating their own...







Nice saying by an old person...
"Just listen to my advice not because i am always right,
but because i have more experience of being wrong..."

Hard Fact About why Human Cry.....
"God Wants Our Eyes To Be Washed By Our Tears Once In a While so That We Can See Life with a Clear view Again.....




“Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.”








“Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.”






“Life is queer with its twists and turns, As everyone of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about, When he might have won had he stuck it out, Don't give up though the race seems slow, You may succeed with another blow, Success is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And be near when it seems so far, So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worse, That you must not quit.”






Life is like baking a cake


A little boy is telling his Grandma how "everything" is going wrong. School, family problems, health problems, problems with friends, etc.

Meanwhile, Grandma is baking a cake. She asks her grandson if he would like a snack, which, of course, he does.

"Here, have some cooking oil." *"Yuck" says the boy.
"How about a couple raw eggs? " "Gross, Grandma!"
"Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?"

"Grandma, those are all yucky!"





To which Grandma replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake!

God works the same way. Many times we wonder why he would let us go through such bad and difficult times.

But god knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!"

God is Crazy About You. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.




When life looks you in the eyes and tells you, "You can't." God is holding your hand telling you, "You can."

Blessings

Beautiful blessings....

*Worries at the start of the day means ur still alive
*Clothes that don't fit means u have a good appetite
*Tears in ur eyes means there is somebody u care for
*The mess 2 clean after a get together means u have friends around u
*Roof that needs fixing means u have got a house
*Taxes 2 pay means u r not unemployed
*Msgs on ur mobile means there is somebody who remembers u
Even if some of these don't apply to you - still be humble for what you do have, Cos somewhere someone is in a far worse condition than you are. Alhamdhulillah

Be optimistic because everything around you happens for a reason!

Parents

Give Your Parents Roses While The’re Alive, Not Dead.

Inner Beauty

When somebody calls a good and kind person ugly they are obviously clueless about inner beauty for true beauty comes from the heart and soul of such a person.

Friends

A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.


A simple friend opens a conversation with a full news bulletin on his life.
A real friend says, "What's new with you?




The one who doesn't change or decrease his/her love for u when u are poor or going through a tough time &does not increase his/her love for u when u r rich or having a good phase in life is surely ur best friend & loyal towards u .

Your stressful situation wont make him lose his love for u nor will he give u importance just because of ur wealth or status .SO VALUE SUCH PEOPLE IN UR LIFE BCZ THEY ARE VERY RARE.




A true friend can see your tears pouring, while others believe the smile you're faking.

We don't know what our brothers or sisters are going through at home or in their personal lives - we can't see behind the smiles they put on everyday so let's remember to be gentle with the believers and not assume we know everything about each other.




A True Friend Is One Who Talks About Ur Weakness In Front Of U & Talks About Ur Strength In Front Of Others!!




Even though we've changed and we're all finding our own place in the world, we all know that when the tears fall or the smile spreads across our face, we'll come to each other because no matter where this crazy world takes us, nothing will ever change so much to the point where we're not all still friends.”




Near Ones Are Not Dear. Dear Ones Are Not Near.
Its Easy To Remember The Near Ones,
But Very Difficult To Forget The Dear Ones…







Portrait of a Friend

I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts, or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers.
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain, nor the future with it's untold stories. But I can be there now when you need me to care.
I can't keep your feet from stumbling.


I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine; yet I can share in your laughter. Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge; I can only support you, encourage you, and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from me. I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you. I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you, but I can give you the room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself.




I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place. I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.

- Author unknown




If you are alone, I`ll be your shadow.
If you want cry, I`ll be your shoulder.
If you need to be happy, I`ll be your smile.
But anytime you need a friend, I`ll just be me.♥♥♥




Into every life a little rain must fall......Call me any time you need an umbrella!!! ♥♥♥







Always There

I’ll always be here through thick and thin
You can come to me, I’ll listen
I’m your friend, I won’t push you away
When you need a hug, my arms are wide open
When you need to talk, I have an open ear
Your growing up and getting older
Know that I’m always here, I’m not going anywhere
Wherever you are, I’m there with you
You're in my heart and my prayers
Just know I’m here, because I truly care
You're my friend, you mean so much
Don’t want to see you hurt or cry
I’ll wipe the tears, I’ll get rid of your fears
Want to see you grow up and achieve


Just believe, have faith
You can do anything
You're beautiful inside and out
You're smart and very talented
You're many things, but most all, you're my friend
I believe in you and know that I’ll never stop loving you.
