I have learned :

I've learned

That you cannot make someone love you, all you can do is 

be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them that 

no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. 

I've learned- 

That it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to 

destroy it. That it's not what you have in your life but who 

you have in your life that counts. 

I've learned - 

That you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. 

After that, you better know something. That you shouldn't 

compare yourself to the best others can do. That you can do

 something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. 

I've learned- 

That it's taking me a long time to become the person that 

I want to be. That you should always leave loved ones 

with loving words. It may be the last time you see them. 

I've learned- 

That you can keep going long after you can't. That we 

are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel. 

I've learned- 

That either you control your attitude or it controls you. 

That regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is 

a first, the passion fades and there had better be something 

else to take its place. 

I've learned- 

That heroes are the people who do what has to be done 

when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences. 

That money is a lousy way of keeping score. 

I've learned- 

That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and 

have the best time. That sometimes the people you expect 

to kick you when you are down will be the ones to help 

you get back up. 

I've learned- 

That sometimes when I get angry I have the right to be angry, 

but it doesn't give me the right to be cruel. That true friendship 

continues to grow over the longest distance, and the same goes 

for true love. 

I've learned- 

That just because someone doesn't love you the way you want 

them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. 

That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences 

you've had and what you've learned from them and less to 

do with how many birthdays you've celebrated. 

I've learned- 

That you should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely 

or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what 

tragedy it would be if they believed it. That no matter how 

good your friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in 

a while, and you must forgive them for that. 

I've learned- 

That it isn't always good enough to be forgiven by others. 

Sometimes you must learn to forgive yourself. That no matter 

how bad a heart is broken; the world doesn't stop for your grief. 

I've learned- 

That our background and circumstances may have influenced 

who we are, but we are responsible for whom we become. 

That just because two people argue, it doesn't mean that they 

don't love each other, and just because they don't argue, it 

doesn't mean they do. 

I've learned- 

That we don't have to change friends, if we understand that 

friends change. That two people can look at the exact same 

thing and see something totally different. 

I've learned- 

That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people 

who don't even know you. That even when you think you 

have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you 

will find the strength to help. 

I've learned- 

That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent 

human being. That the people you care about the most 

in life are taken from you too soon.

I've learned- 

That its hard to determine where to draw the line 

between being nice and not hurting someone else feelings 

or standing up for what you believe. That no matter what 

happens to me on earth or how much my faith falters, 

God's faith in me never dwindles or fails. 

I've learned- 

That life's lessons never end and wisdom can always be 

passed on.

Out Dream is to Life

I suggest you read this...

Our Dream is to life, so why not live to dream? The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams and in the power or passion they bring. *Dream* But dreaming of the person we want to be, shadows the person we truly are. *Take risks* Be ambitious for better things but not too boastful. *Overcome obstacles* To see beyond the forest, you must first climb the tallest tree. Hard work always pays off sooner or later. *Love* The second best thing to do with your lips is smile so share that kiss. Love is giving someone the power to destroy you...but trusting them not to, everyones good at heart, they wont hurt you on purpose. We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly, so hold on, don't be to quick to let go, its not over to you give up.

*Believe* Faith is believing in something when common sense tells you not to. Believe you can and you're half way there, some of the most successful people, became it, because they believed. *Get stuck in* Take every opportunity and run with it, You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. *Be your own best friend* Find out who you are, and try not to be afraid of it because we live in a world full of people pretending to be something they're not. 

And if you only listen to one thing i've said, listen to this... We're not just here to casually stroll through life avoiding all the problems, Make the most of things, Grab every opportunity with both hands, Love like you've never been hurt, Dream like you meant it, because lifes a game, but you don't win or lose by playing by the rules, you only lose by not trying. Every great achievement was once considered impossible...

Truth

Make your nerves strong. What we want is 
muscles of iron and nerves of steel. 
We have wept long enough. No more weeping, 
but stand on your feet and be men. 

It is a man-making religion that we want.

It is man-making theories that we want. 

It is man-making education all round that we want. 

And here is the test of truth — anything that makes

you weak physically, intellectually, and spiritually, 

reject as poison; there is no life in it,

it cannot be true.

Truth is strengthening. Truth is purity, 

truth is all-knowledge; truth must be strengthening, 

must be enlightening, must be invigorating.

Strength

• All great undertakings are achieved through mighty obstacles. 
• Put forth your manly effort. Wretched people under the grip of lust and 
• gold deserve to be looked upon with indifference. 
• Keep up the deepest mental poise; take not even the slightest notice 
• of what puerile creatures may be saying against you. 
• Indifference! Indifference! Indifference! All power is within you; 
• you can do anything and everything. Believe in that; 
• do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are 
• half-crazy lunatics as most of us believe now-a-days. 
• You can do anything and everything, 
• without even the guidance of any one.

Mistakes

Our mistakes have places here. Go on! 

Do not look back if you think you have done something that is not right. 

Now, do you believe you could be what you are today, 

had you not made those mistakes before? Bless your mistakes, then. 

They have been angels unawares. Blessed be torture! 

Blessed be happiness Do not care what be your lot. 

Hold on to the ideal. March on! 

Do not look back upon little mistakes and things. 

In this battlefield of ours, the dust of mistakes must be raised. 

Those who are so thin-skinned that they cannot bear the dust, 

let them get out of the ranks. 

No One to Blame

The sun goes down, its crimson rays 
        Light up the dying day; 
A startled glance I throw behind 
        And count my triumph shame; 
                No one but me to blame.

Each day my life I make or mar,
        Each deed begets its kind, 
Good good, bad bad, the tide once set 
        No one can stop or stem; 
                No one but me to blame.

I am my own embodied past; 
        Therein the plan was made; 
The will, the thought, to that conform, 
        To that the outer frame; 
                No one but me to blame.

Love comes reflected back as love, 
        Hate breeds more fierce hate, 
They mete their measures, lay on me 
        Through life and death their claim; 
                No one but me to blame.

I cast off fear and vain remorse, 
        I feel my Karma's sway 
I face the ghosts my deeds have raised — 
        Joy, sorrow, censure, fame; 
                No one but me to blame.

Good, bad, love, hate, and pleasure, pain 
        Forever linked go, 
I dream of pleasure without pain, 
        It never, never came; 
                No one but me to blame.

I give up hate, I give up love, 
        My thirst for life is gone; 
Eternal death is what I want, 
        Nirvanam goes life's flame; 
                No one is left to blame.

One only man, one only God, one ever perfect soul, 
One only sage who ever scorned the dark and dubious ways, 
One only man who dared think and dared show the goal 

— That death is curse, and so is life, and best when stops to be.

Om Nama Bhagavate Sambuddhâya 
Om, I salute the Lord, the awakened

The Sweet Banana Importance

This is interesting. After reading this, you’ll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes.

But energy is n’t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

DEPRESSION
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that 

the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you 

feel happier.

PMS:
Forget the pills – eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

ANEMIA
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

BLOOD PRESSURE:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

BRAIN POWER
200 students at a Twickenham school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

CONSTIPATION
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

HANGOVERS
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

HEARTBURN
Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

MORNING SICKNESS
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

MOSQUITO BITES:
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

NERVES
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system..Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads 

to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

ULCERS
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chroniclercases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Many other cultures see bananas as a ‘cooling’ fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, 

and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. 

So maybe its time to change that well-known 

phrase so that we say, 

‘A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!’
