It took a long time for me to realise..

If we don’t like something we need not choose sad emoji. 

If we don’t like someone we can still pick up their calls or be there when needed

If we don’t approve someone’s actions we can express our displeasure without being rude or hurtful

There is always no competition for things that are left because no one chooses them. They will be the most exquisite!

There is power in waiting…. Wait for the right opportunity, right person, right time, right feelings and wait for the right words.

Don’t feel hurt for the words of someone who is suffering. Pain makes people say and do things they will regret.

If they care they will be there.

Life is beautiful only when you can be happy when alone.

Gratitude cannot be taught but when learnt can create miracles.

End conversations when people talk about others to avoid being the topic of their next conversation.

If you have kids be careful of what you do. They will bear the effects of your karma.

Law of attraction works. If you truly want something it will end up in your lap.

Not all battles belong to you. Don’t be a warrior in every war you witness.

Guilty get angry. When angry on someone find out if you are guilty of something.

Jealousy brings bad luck. Everyone is fighting unseen struggles. Be kind and wish well.

Life is precious. Be kind to your loved ones. 

Words and thoughts have more power than you think. Never utter anything you don’t wanna manifest. 

Love is unconditional. Give it to receive it. 

Ego is the cause for all fights, letting go will bring peace. 

It’s impossible to teach someone to love enough to cross mountains to be with you. If someone does it respect them. If someone doesn’t respect their choice too.

Those who lie to escape from helping or from responsibility, will never be by your side when in distress. If someone says the truth on your face embrace them with full grace. 

Never respond regret reply or curse when angry.

Never talk about others in front of your children. Never create opinions in their virgin brains about people. You will never know who they will end up needing at different walks of their lives. 

Watch what you utter in front of kids because you are creating an image of yourself in their brains. If you speak bad of others they will think you are bad! 

Expectations result in disappointment. Be open and see how grateful you become.

Don’t show love for things instead show ur for people, plants, experiences.

God never punishes. There should be no god fear. 

Talk to your friends. They will understand you better. 

Social status is not measured with money, possessions or job. It’s measured with smiles, laughter, food and love. 

Imagine the person you are speaking about to be sitting next to you when you speak. Automatically you will know what to say and what not to. 

Sleep is underrated.

Books can help declutter mind. 

Only buy what you will use. Your kids shouldn’t be sorting

Why old people should talk more?

*Why do older people need to talk more?*

A well wisher once told me, that I must talk more when I am old, because there is currently no way to prevent Alzheimer's disease. 

Talking more, may be the only way.

*_There are at least three advantages for the elderly to talk more._* 

*First*, speaking will activate the brain & keep the thinking agile, because language & thinking communicate with each other, especially speaking quickly, which naturally exercises the rapid reflection of thinking & also enhances memory.  

An elderly person who is not talkative, is particularly likely to have Alzheimer's disease.  

Therefore, some people who have retired, are prone to Alzheimer's disease, because they no longer speak.  

*Second*, speaking can release a lot of psychological will, expel mental illness & reduce stress. We often say nothing, but bury it in our hearts & suffocate it. This is the truth. So, it is a good thing to be able to make parents nag more.  

*Third*, speaking can exercise the active facial muscles & at the same time, exercise the throat organs & even the lung capacity, so that it can reduce the decline of eyes & ears & reduce hidden dangers, such as dizziness & deafness.  

To summarize, when one is old, talking as much as possible, being able to interact with people, is the only way to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, because this disease is currently the most terrifying of all diseases for the elderly. There is no way of treatment, as yet.  

Not only is all memory gone, there are no thoughts & even knowing family members is difficult; one becomes a burden to others & is more like a living dead.  

It is hoped that medical development, will solve/treat, this problem soon.

 

*_So, friends, let your parents talk as much as possible & don't dislike the old people nagging; this is also a kind of filial piety._*

Cheers.

Before we speak

Before we speak, let our words pass through three gates:
Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind?
