Live A Life That Matters....The Choice Is Yours!!!

Live A Life That Matters Post settings Ready or not, someday it will all come to an end. There will be no more sunrises, no minutes, hours or days. All your possessions & collections - whether treasures or baubles... Will pass to someone else. Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance. It will not matter what you owned or what you were owed. Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies will finally disappear. So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans, and to-do lists will expire. The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away. It won't matter where you came from, or on which side of the tracks you lived. It won't matter whether you were beautiful, handsome... Brilliant, rich or dull.   Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant. So what will matter? How will the value of your days be measured? What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built   Not what you got, but what you gave.   What will matter is not your success, but your significance. What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught. What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, or sacrifice... that enriched, empowered or encouraged others to emulate your example. What will matter is not your competence, but your character. What will matter is not how many people you knew.... But how many people will feel a lasting loss, when you’re gone. What will matter is not your memories.... but the memories that live in those who loved you. What will matter is how long you will be remembered, by whom and for what... Living a life that matters doesn't happen by accident. It's not a matter of circumstance but of choice. Lets make that choice NOW !  To live a life that matters Let others say that  there lived a man who lead  an exemplary  life to  others!  Source: Ronald D'Silva Secunderabad

Ann's Blog: R is for Reading

An Enthusiast Little Reader, Pic. by Ariel

We learn to read in our childhood days and at a later stage we read to learn. OK this is understandable, then why do we read even after our adulthood or our education is completed?

Is it really required after passing through such a stage of completion?

Yes, this kind of thinking stops people from reading.  in fact reading is fast diminishing in these age.

Reading is one of the important activity in education, please don't think that way and stop reading, instead It's a continuous process and I think it should be continued till our death.

U is for Usage: The Wonder Working Usages of Honey And Cinnamon

Picture Credit:  www.ankarascene.com 

Honey is the only food on the planet that will not spoil or rot. What it will do is what some call 'turning to sugar'. In reality, honey is always honey. However, when left in a cool dark place for a long time it will "crystallize". When this happens loosen the lid, boil some water and sit the honey container in the hot water, but turn off the heat and let it liquefy naturally. It is then as good as it ever was. Never boil honey or put it in a microwave. This will kill the enzymes in the honey.

Lessons from Trees - Devotional Thoughts for the Day - May 7th 2013 ~ Daily Devotionals

Picture by P V Ariel

"Whoever comes to Me [Jesus], and hears My sayings and does them...is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock. But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great." - Luke 6:47-49 (NKJV).

Z is for Zeal: Zeal is the Word for Today

Zeal is the word for today

Picture Credit. Squido.com

Zeal is the word for today at A to Z blog challenge the brain child of the wonderful blogger cum writer ArleeBird

We are at the finishing line, though few left behind, many could touch the finish line.  There is a reason for my selection of this word for today. 

I am sure we all had this zeal in the initial stage of this challenge, and that zeal lead us to reach here at the end of the challenge. 

Zeal: The dictionary meaning says = Enthusiasm, Passionate, ardor etc… Yes, our enthusiasm brought us thus far.

We all need this zeal in our daily life to lead a victorious or successful life. 

Though on the way we may face different kinds of hurdles, failures and problems, if we have the zeal to go forward it that surely takes us to reach the goal.

We know many such people in the pages of history, even in spite or their problems and difficulties the zeal they had helped them to reach to the success line.

let us look into few of such examples, since we are all involved in the field of writings, I am sure this will be an encouraging one to move forward, and no doubt, their zeal for their goal will be a guide to all of us.

Sometimes you may be surprised to know this.  Many of the world famous writers and their works were rejected several time by the publishers, but they did not looked back instead they sacrificed their time and energy to go forward.  With a great zeal they went forward and reached at the success line.

margaretmitchell www.goworldtravel.com

The famous book "Gone with the Wind" written by Margaret Mitchell was rejected by twenty five publishers, and later it bagged the famous Pulitzer Prize. 

So is the case with George Orwell’s "Animal farm" and "Ann Frank’s Diary", sixteen publishers rejected these works and later become famous and counted as the great works of 20^th Century.  

The list continues, the following famous writers’ writings too were rejected several times.

William Gold’s "Lord of the flies", (Later he got Nobel Prize for literature)

Joseph Heller’s "Catch 22" (greatest work of 20^th Century)

J K Rowling’s  ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” (more than 4 crores of books sold out later in the series of Harry potter)

William Falkner’s  “Sanctuary” (he bagged Nobel Prize for literature)

Irving Stone’s  “Lust for Life” (later more than two crores sold out)

Rudyar Clippings stories,(later he got Nobel Prize for Literature)—the publishers just rejected his writings with a note saying “do not know how to write in English”

The interesting part is that they never got dejected or looked back, instead with great zeal they went forward and achieved their goal.

We need to have this kind of zeal in our life, not only in writing field, but in any field one need to have a kind of zeal to achieve the goal, definitely he can win the race with flying colors, yes, for this we need to have great patience along with the zeal.

Let us take one or two leaves from their life.  May these wonderful people’s life be an example or guide to us.  Let us have the same ZEAL that they all had.  As one of the A to Z face-page story said, "This is not the end of it," yes, let us continue our journey along with BLOGGING!!!

We at Philipscom Wish You All A Happy Blogging!!!

Have a wonderful time of friendship and blogging.

Thanks to Arlee Bird and Associates for allowing us to take part in this wonderful and great event.

Best Regards
