Dear Reena,

Efforts worth appreciation.

I personally feel that it would be real good to read atleast one such quote daily and to think about it for a moment.
I would like to suggest that it would be really good idea to flash one such quote everyday on the site itself, so that as soon as someone open the site along with rest of the things, something like "Quote of the Day" could be displayed.
You can discuss it with the adminstrator that they can work out something of this kind, which I am sure would be benefical to everyone.
It was merely what I felt about it, rest is for you and others to consider.

Regards,
Shashi Verma

simple thoughts!!!

Anger is a condition in which the tongue works faster than the mind.

You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying over the future.

Love...and you shall be loved.

All people smile in the same language.

Everyone needs to be loved... especially when they do not deserve it.

The real measure of a man's wealth is what he has invested in eternity.

Laughter is God's sunshine.

Everyone has beauty but not everyone sees it.

It's important for parents to live the same things they teach.

Thank God for what you have, TRUST GOD for what you need.

If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for.

Man looks at outward appearance but the Lord looks within.

The choice you make today will usually affect tomorrow.

Take time to laugh, for it is the music of the soul.

Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears.

Love is strengthened by working through conflicts together.

Harsh words break no bones but they do break hearts.

To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it.

We take for granted the things that we should be giving thanks for.

Love is the only thing that can be divided without being diminished.

Happiness is enhanced by others but does not depend upon others.

For every minute you are angry with someone, you lose 60 seconds of happiness that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can, with what you have, and where you are.
 
Good work Reena

Atleast you are cotributing something creative

Hats off to you
 
Thanx RKRji
