Wisdom sentences. Post yours!

fastclappingWisdom sentences. Post yours! fastclapping

Never assume the obvious is true.

To turn $100 into $110 is work. To turn $100 million into $110 million is inevitable.

Never go to bed mad - Stay up and fight.

Television has proved that people will look at anything rather than each other.

Too bad that all the people who know how to run the country are busy driving taxi cabs and cutting hair.

Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character.

Even the wisest of kings needs advice.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is to not stop questioning.

Accept everything about yourself - I mean everything, You are you and that is the beginning and the end - no apologies, no regrets.

To be or not to be is not a question of compromise. Either you be or you don't be.

Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.

#1 If you lend someone 1000 baht , and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
#2 If you're too open minded, your brains will fall out.
#3 If you look like your passport picture, you probably need a holiday.
#4 A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good.
#5 Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognise a mistake when you make it again.
#5 Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused.
#6 Everyone has a photographic memory.  Some just don't have film.
#7 If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.
#8 Indecision is the key to flexibility.
#9 Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

A short story to explain a sentence  ::)

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out a way to get him out. Finally he decided it was probably impossible and the animal was old and the well was dry anyway, so it just wasn't worth it to try and retrieve the donkey.  So the farmer asked his neighbours to come over and help him cover up the well. They all grabbed shovels and began to shovel dirt into the well.

At first, when the donkey realized what was happening he cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down and let out some happy brays. A few shovel loads later, the farmer looked down the well to see what was happening and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was shaking it off and taking a step up.

As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he continued to shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, to everyone's amazement, the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off.

Consider that the moral of this tale is: Life is going to shovel dirt on you. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.  Through applying wisdom every adversity can be turned into a stepping stone.  The way to get out of the deepest well is by never giving up but by shaking yourself off and taking a step up.

What happens to you isn't nearly as important as how you react to it. smilebar

A wise, old TV hostess once said: If someone shows you how they are, believe them the first time.

That is the only thing she ever said that is worth remembering.

Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.

A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity.

Do not shame your friend in public.
Please keep on his dignity,
Because its a way of life.

If your friend is in trouble,
failed in his actions,
Do not embarrass him in public and help him.

If your friend forgets, wrong or confused,
Correct and show him the right way privately.

Something everyone should know.

The less you know
the more you think you know
because you don't know
you don't know.

they must be felt with the heart."

สิ่งที่สวยงามที่สุดมิอาจสัมผัสได้โดยสัมผัสทางกาย ทว่าต้องรับรู้ผ่านหัวใจ
To love is nothing. To be loved is something.
To love and be loved is everything!!

"I can't know, do I know too much or too less."
Because something might enough for me but in the same time it might not enough for someone.
But I know that
"people are different".

Small bird flew south for the winter. It was already cold and the bird's wings stiffened and it crashed into the field. When it was lying there, a cow came along and dropped a pile of dung on top of the bird. Manure was warm and soft, and warms the little bird. Bird enjoyed the wonderful warmth and, began to chirp. A passing cat heard the chirp and went to investigate where the sound comes from. It found a little bird dug it out from the manure and ate it.

 moral of the story

Not everyone who throws shit in your neck, are your enemies.
Not everyone who lifts you up from shit, are your friend.
If you are in deep shit, its better to shut up.
