DO YOU REALIZE THAT

We are born with two eyes in front,
because we must not always look behind.
But see what lies ahead, beyond us.
We are born to have two ears one left – one right so we can hear both sides.
Collect both the compliments and criticisms, to see which are right.
We are born with a brain concealed in a skull.
Then no matter how poor we are, we are still rich.
For no one can steal what our brains contains.
Packing in more jewels and rings than you can think.

We are born with two eyes, two ears, but one mouth.
For the mouth is a sharp weapon, it can hurt, flirt, kill.
Remember to talk less, listen and see more.
We are born with only one heart, deep in our ribs.
It reminds us to appreciate and give love from deep within.
Learn to love and enjoy being loved but do not expect people to love you the way or as much as you had loved them.
Give love without expecting love in return and you will find love more beautiful.

God bless
People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
