Be the best version of you ....

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary - Steve Jobs

FRIEND

‎"A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow".
A person that knows you for who you are exactly, a person that accepts what you have become and never judges you, and allows for you to grow and helps you along the way is a friend that you should keep around for a lifetime. These days it is very hard to find somebody brave enough to let you shine your light to the world, and even more difficult to find someone that will be in your life who's sole purpose is to help you shine your light to the world.

Mel

Stop it !!!

For some, especially for those whose interest relies heavily on pleasing everyone around them, wasting time on people who don't love them in an effort to try to convince those people to love them is a major part of their lives. If you are one of these people, it is time for you to make a change today. Life is way too short to waste time trying to convince someone that you are worthy to be loved.
Mel

Everybody wants happiness

‎"Everybody wants happiness, nobody wants pain, but you can't have a rainbow, without a little rain."

Living after the painful parts of our lives is what helps us build character, and become the best person that we can possibly become. One thing that we must remember when dealing with hurt, anger and pain in our lives is that when dealing with it, holding on to it, and looking back wishing that y...
ou did things differently when you had the chance is a good way to feel this pain longer than you need to.

We experience the pain in our lives in the moments that we do in order to best learn from them, not to hold on to them and wish that we would have handled our lives differently. What is most important in our lives is not how our life begins but rather how the last chapters in our lives end. Though it is important to cherish yesterday, it is also important to dream for tomorrow, and to live each day as thoroughly as possible

Just for u Azou

De la volonté à la passion.
De la patience à la déraison.
De l'insolence à l'abandon.
Sans aucune prétention.
Je voudrais être l'idée de tes envies.
La passion de tes folies.
En fait ! Être pour toi la plus jolie.
Que mes yeux soient pour toi les plus beaux.
Ma bouche la plus tendre.
Mes mains les plus douces !!!
Que mon corps mi démon, mi ange.
Fasse que tes nuits soient les plus blanches.
Faire de ta vie un paradis !!!
Love u Azou
Mel

Life requires us at times to be ...


Having the courage to talk to someone who you may be scared to talk to may open up doors that you never imagined would be open for you, sometimes we must be willing to take risks like talking to someone that we never knew would talk to us, and in turn we may find out that they have been the ones that have been waiting to talk to you. Life requires us at times to be ...more aggressive than we would normally like to be.

Instead of running from life, and the uncomfortable situations that we may expose ourselves to, it is important that we make our self comfortable in being in uncomfortable situations, and that we utilize the ability to take risks in our lives, because it is these types of situations that allow us to grow exponentially. We must be willing to talk to the people who we don't think will talk to us, and choose to go after experiences that we are uncertain about as well.
Mel!!!

don't waste your time on those that don't.


Wasting one's time is one of the biggest wrongs that can be committed against one's self. Time is our most valuable resource because it is something that once past, can never be acquired again. In order to make the best use of our time it is crucial that we use it doing the things within our heart that we love, with the people we love and who love us in return.

When somebody isn't willing to dev...ote their self to you, like you are willing to devote yourself to them, having a relationship with this person will more than likely lead to devastation for the person who cares most. This isn't always something that is possible to avoid but can more easily be determined even though sometimes it may be after we acquire feelings for a person. In order to be the best you, you must be willing to let go of people who have no interest in helping transform you into the best you, don't waste your time on those that don't.
Mel !!!!

Stop going back to the one who brings you more pain than happiness


The saying goes, if a snake bites you once, it may be the snakes' fault, but usually when the snake bites you a second time, it is your fault. When we are in the vicinity of something that is potentially harmful, like a relationship with a dishonest person, or a person who has no qualms with hurting us to get what they want, and they eventually do, it may not be our fault the first time that they ...do so, even if the warning signs were there.

It is only after these people hurt us and only when we choose to allow them into our lives to hurt us again, is it our fault that we get hurt again. As this passage says, people can be cruel, and they will be. This is not to say, that everyone will hurt you over and over again, and that no one deserves a second chance, but those who are chosen by you to receive a second chance, should be chosen wisely, and only with your heart's discretion.

"Stop going back to the one who brings you more pain than happiness. It's not worth it to continue to invest your feelings into somebody unworthy of your love. Everybody deserves second chances, but not for the same mistakes."
Mel!

You should give yourself a break !


Messing up is a big part of life, and is a part of life that can either makes us or break us. If we sit around with regret, and focus all of our energy into trying to relive our pasts, we take away from living right now, we take energy that we could be using to create and seize opportunities that may further our futures, and let it go to waste on a part of our life that can not be relived, and not... be changed.
Sometimes in our lives there will be questions that will just remain unanswered, but we must gather enough strength and enough courage to move forward. We have to accept the fact that messing up is a part of life, and we have to be willing to dust ourselves off, and move forward. The harder that you are on yourself about your past, the harder that it will be to produce results for the future.
Mel !

Someone still loves you !


One thing about life that tells us it isn't always fair is how we ignore the ones who love us the most, yet we love the most the ones who just ignore us. Just because someone may not love you as you love him or her, doesn't mean that you should ignore all of those who love you. Doing so is a decision that all of us usually make either purposely or by default at one point in our lives, and is also ...an important lesson for us to learn from for the rest of our lives.

If someone doesn't treat as special as you deserve to be treated, and doesn't love you the way that you deserved to be loved, as a person who is uniquely and wonderfully made, chances are this person doesn't deserve to have you in their lives. Make time and effort for the people who still love you and for the people that will always love you, instead of devoting yourself to those who just ignore how beautiful of a person you really are.
Mel !

Vendredi 13

Imaginez que ce soit tous les jours Vendredi 13…
Que tous les jours soient un jour de chance. Cela est possible, voici pourquoi :

Vendredi 13 vous apporte l’équivalent de ce que vous croyez

Si systématiquement, vous chargez ce jour de superstitions négatives, vous allez attirer à vous des évènements négatifs…

A chaque Vendredi 13, vous envoyez à votre subconscient l’information que ce jour va vous apporter la malchance, et c’est ce qui va se produire si vous en êtes vraiment convaincu.
Une expérience scientifique sérieuse a été faite dans le West Sussex en Grande Bretagne et on a démontré que le Vendredi 13 semblait être un jour de malheur pour les automobilistes.
Les chercheurs ont comparé tous les Vendredi 13 et les tous les vendredi qui tombaient un 6 du mois, depuis 23 ans, et ils se sont aperçus que le nombre de personnes qui se rendaient aux urgences suite à un accident de voiture était jusqu’à 52% plus élevé les Vendredi 13, même avec moins de véhicules en circulation !
Selon eux, la nervosité était accrue chez les automobilistes ce jour-là et leur anxiété provoquait une perte de concentration, puis des accidents.
On se rend très vite compte que le pouvoir des croyances est énorme. Cela n’a rien de magique ou de mystique. Il suffit de comprendre les mécanismes psychologiques qui se mettent en place et qui par l’entremise du subconscient, influencent subtilement ce que vous créez dans votre réalité.
Si vous partez du principe, au contraire, que ce jour vous porte chance, vous allez mobiliser des énergies psychiques qui agiront sur votre comportement et par conséquent, sur votre environnement et votre entourage.
Vendredi 13 n’est pas différent de tous les autres jours, à moins d’y croire… Et si une masse importante de gens le charge d’émotions particulières, alors il se pourrait bien que ce jour ne soit plus tout à fait comme tous les autres…
Ma question est :
Voulez-vous faire de chaque jour un Vendredi 13 qui vous apporte la chance, le bonheur et l’abondance ?

JOIE !!!!!!!!!!

La joie que nous avons en tant qu'individus est quelque chose que personne ne devrait jamais interrompre ou nous juger par, et est quelque chose que nous ne devrions jamais pour acquis. Certains voient en joie une émotion, mais avoir joie est en réalité une attitude, ou un mode de vie dans lequel nous devrions essayer de garder sur une base quotidienne. Même s'il y aura des moments dans nos vies que nous sommes malheureuses, que nous ne devrions encore jamais rien laisser prendre notre joie de nous.
Mel!

I LOVE RIGNT NOW !

Loving every moment of every day is a great attitude to have to get through life. True enough, hardly anyone is truly happy at all times, but those who make a great effort to be, are usually the ones who are most content with the life that they are living. Love right now, love where you are even if you aren't exactly where you want to be in life just yet. Love the people that are around you, even ...if these people don't seem to believe in you, or even if they don't seem to support you as much as you would like.

Love right now because you have life, and you have the ability to show the world what differences that you can make to it to make it a better world for everybody in it. Love right now because you are love, because love shines through you, and because there is no one on this earth exactly like you. Love right now because you are beautiful, and you enjoy all of the beauty that life has to offer.
Mel !

Comment elle voit L'AMOUR !!!!


Sahadia Etienne

Lorsque l’amour esquisse un sourire, ferveur et passion se coalisent, perturbant gaiement ces cœurs en folie qui clament des mots, sensations et émotions qui ne résonnent qu’auprès des amoureux de tous les temps. Mais lorsqu’il aura perdu son sourire, c’est au tour de spasmes douloureux, réflexions amères et silence orgueilleux de faire leur voyage à travers les échos du néant. Les amours perdus n’ont nul besoin d’être des amours blessés, tels des orphelins sans nom. Reconnaissons plutôt l’immortalité, la fragilité et l’arrogance de cette chose que nous ne contrôlons guère. Ne la vulgarisons pas. Choyons-la à son arrivée et embrassons-la à son départ.
Sahadia Etienne

Are we allowing it to happen?






Let's go somewhere ang judge people .


Someone who is extremely unemotional is said to a cold-hearted person. A cold-hearted or stone-hearted person has a heart completely devoid and immune to emotions. A cold-hearted person can never feel for anyone and is insensitive to love, pain etc. A person becomes cold-hearted according to some circumstances which mould him accordingly. Cold-hearted people are basically stoic in nature and stay ...unperturbed by circumstances. Cold-hearted people are devoid of feelings and emotions. Cold-hearted people are very difficult to deal with and they have a very limited list of friends if any. People find it difficult to bond with a person who has heart completely insensitive to emotions of any kind.
 Thomas Campbell had once remarked, “The proud, the cold untroubled heart of stone, that never mused on sorrow but its own.”
Mel!

Don't waste time on what could have been ...



There are many times in our lives when our brains force us to relive a moment that we experienced in the past, making us think of what we could have done in order to make things work out better, instead of what we did. When these thoughts come to us, we must choose instead to think about life as we know it now, and what it will be in the future. Never let your past ...mistakes, failures, or successes, cloud your dreams for the future.

What is done is done, and though we can relive our old memories in our head, we can never relive them physically. We must be willing to learn from our past, remember what made us successful, and remember what we failed in, in order to best prepare for the successes of the future. The only person that can prevent you from prospering in the future is the person that you are now, not who you were two years ago, two months ago, or two days ago.

The Secret

Once or twice a week take a few minutes and focus on seeing yourself in joy. Feel yourself in joy. Imagine only joy ahead in your life and see yourself basking in it. As you do this the Universe will move all people, circumstances, and events to bring you that joy. You can't be in joy if you have money worries, or health worries, or relationship problems with friends or family. So deposit some joy in the bank of the Universe as often as you can. from The Secret Daily Teachings !

Dreams!


The only things that should take us back to the past are the memories we made with the people that were in our lives in our pasts. What should bring us forward are our own dreams for our future. In order to set legitimate, and real goals for our future we must in a sense, forget about the past. We can't let mistakes or regrets from our pasts drive us forward in our lives.


Many of us have heard t...he saying; we can't drive forward looking in the rear-view mirror. Meaning it is impossible to focus on progress if we are always looking back at things we wished we have done, or things that we may wish we would have done in different ways. If we try to move forward based off of our regrets, our vision will be clouded, and our forward progress will be greatly limited. Remember to set your dreams upon what you really want for yourself in life, and not what could have been.
Mel!

Compassion ...


I cannot ease your aching heart,
Nor take the pain away.
But let me stay and take your hand
And walk with you today.
I’ll listen when you need to talk,
I’ll wipe your tears away.
I’ll share your worries when they come,
I’ll help you face your fears.
I’m here and I will stand by you,
Each hill you have to climb.
So take my hand lets face the word,
Live one day at a time.
You’re not alone for I’m still here,
I’ll go that extra mile,
And when your grief is easier,
I’ll help you learn to smile
Mel!

I still have hope for the road ahead.


Keeping the faith and keeping a hopeful positive attitude is one of the hardest yet most rewarding concepts to understand and to apply into our everyday lives. Through the roughest times in our lives it seems as though all we should and can do is give up. Keeping our heads up to the sky, and keeping a forward resolve, even through times of adversity is essential to making it to where we want to be... in life. Remember that the greatest of people are those who overcame some of the greatest challenges that life had to offer.

Maintain hope, for hope is sometimes all you have to hold on to during times where it seems as if all is lost, and that you shouldn't continue forward. Maintain the fight, and keep believing in yourself, in doing so everything else will fall in place, and everything will work out for the greatest good!

Mel!

Your presence is a present, so live for today


Stop thinking about the past, and don't worry too much about whats going to happen in the future. Your presence is a present, so live for today, and appreciate everyone and everything you have. Stop thinking about what you don't have, what you wish you had, who walked out of your life, and whatever else that falls in that category. Think about what you have, who you have in your life, and how fort...unate you are. -Junethea Crystal Centeno
The people that make you happy are very special people and should be treated as such. One big mistake that many people make is to mistreat those who are kind to them and would do anything for them by taking advantage of them, and by not putting the same effort into the relationship as their partner. In order to show our gratitude to the people in our lives that make us the happiest we must put in work.
Doing things like surprising your partner with a trip out of town, or taking your relationship partner to a restaurant that you know they will enjoy, are just small gestures that show them that you love them, and that you want to make them as happy as they make you. Also, be sure to express in words how you feel towards them, tell them that they make you happy, and tell them that you love them. Even though the way we feel sometimes can seem as though it is a given, sometimes we all need a little bit of reassurance.

May all your dreams come true !


One lesson that we must all learn in life is that there are going to be people in our lives and in the world period who just won't understand our dreams, and won't understand the goals that we set for ourselves in life. While some won't understand, some will refuse to understand as well, some will mock you, and some will try to talk you out of going for a dream that is just "too big" for you to ac...complish, in their opinion.

The truth is, if your dreams don't scare you, then they probably aren't big enough dreams that you have set for yourself. We have to have strong faith in what burns inside of our hearts, and we must also hold to the fact that with God's grace, and with a strong undetermined will, nothing can stop us from being where we want, and know we should be in life, no matter how much negativity we receive from people in our lives.

Let your dreams guide you.


More often than not we are pushed and swayed by our problems, and are greatly influenced into following a path that we know would generate the least resistance, instead of keeping our eyes on the prize and going after what we dream of achieving. I am here to tell you today not to be swayed by tough times.

Don't let a rough day at work influence you to quit before you know you don't have any othe...
r options. Don't let your boyfriend or girlfriend talk you into cutting out your dreams in life in order to make sure that they will stick by you, because if they really loved you they would stick by you no matter what. Don't let unexpected challenges or circumstances, which arise in everyone's life, deter you from your goals and aspirations.

Let your dreams guide you. When things start to get hard, and when you feel like giving up everything, remember what you are doing it for, remember your dreams, and use them as motivation to keep going
Mel !

You are perfect .


When we are insecure about situations, in actuality we are holding on to some experience(s) that caused us tremendous anguish earlier in our lives to the point of where we don't want to allow a situation or relationship of similar magnitude to take place again. In order to get past our insecurities we must first get rid of the mindset of living in our past.

Just because you weren't good enough f...or something then, doesn't mean that you are not good enough now, just because you weren't able to accomplish something then, doesn't mean that you won't accomplish it now. Let go of your pain, and believe in the fact that the only limits that bind you, are those limits that you place on yourself. We are all perfect people with perfect imperfections. Remember to not only enjoy your life but to take advantage of the opportunities that life presents to you as well. Live every day as if it could be your last!
Mel!

Today is a new day...

Single is not a status .


Sure being in love is a great place in life to be in, but being and living single is also an important portion of life to live through as well, and also has its perks. Though 2 out of 5 people remain with their first love for life, 3 out of 5 people don't, and live single for at the least, a small while. When you are single it is very important to capitalize on this opportunity. You may or may not... enjoy being single, but you must make the best of it by gathering yourself together as much as possible.

Since you don't have to worry about maintaining a relationship with someone else, you have a lot more time to focus on yourself, the achievement of your goals and dreams, and really determine the qualities and characteristics that you may desire in your next mate. Take your time when you are single, gather your focus and strength to best prepare you for the world and your soul mate!
Mel !

Don't cheat !!!


Sometimes in relationships we feel that we owe the other person too much loyalty to just leave, and commit act of disloyalty such as cheating in order to try to fulfil ourselves in parts of our life in which we aren't getting fulfilment. Whatever the "excuse" is, whether we are unhappy, or if a relationship is leaving you unsatisfied, there is never any good reason to commit any acts of disloyalty..., especially cheating.

First of all, the truth is no matter what we are going to be attracted to others that we are not in a relationship with, these desires are an instinctual portion of the human psyche, plain and simple, it is inevitable. The main point to remember is that the best way to show your lover that you aren't happy is not to cheat, but is instead to communicate to your love directly how you feel and why you feel the way you do. Be honest with your partner and if things can not be worked out, go your separate ways, instead of inflicting more emotion pain on them by being dishonest and unfaithful.
Mel !!!

Trust yourself and trust the Universe.


So you feel your loved Ones do not Understand you? What other people think of you is none of your business. Your Being is asking you to be yourself in strength. When you share yourself in joy you can easily be a threat to those who do not because they will reflect off you. Your radiance is enlivening them but they have to move in order to feel it and that is scary. So rejection or put down of you ...or even avoidance of you is their way of coping.

By all means temper what you feel but do not hide what you are. You are learning another lesson in being yourself without doubting. It is another opportunity to become stronger, surer of who you are. And sometimes it will mean that others will drift away from you and you from them. This is the Shift, things are all changing and the more you are willing to change the sweeter it will become. Trust yourself and trust the Universe.

It is conspiring to bring you greater opportunity to spread your wings of love that you have so longed for. Don't try to change others just strengthen your own radiance. It will always touch others. What they do about it or with it is their business. This is how we are changing the world, touch by touch.
Feel your radiance and Shine irrespective of what is happening around you.
Mel !

“If there is anything in the world more annoying than having people talk about you it uncertainly having no one talk about you


Yes, there are many annoying people who have no other intention than to annoy others. Some of them are intentional while others are unintentional. Offering advice to others, especially to those who do not care for them, is highly annoying. Advice is offered free of cost and the irony is that most of the people who offer advice do not practice it in real life so, hearing such advice is annoying. Si...milarly certain people have annoying behaviour like, talking loud, interrupting the conversation between two persons, indecent manners and so on. Annoying people can never be corrected unless they realize their bad behaviour. Oscar Wilde once said, “If there is anything in the world more annoying than having people talk about you it uncertainly having no one talk about you “. It is also an annoying behaviour to interfere in the personal and private maters of others
Mel !

BABY, you lost ME !


Fake friends are a term used to describe fair-weather or selfish friends. True friends are like diamonds (precious and rare), while fake friends are like autumn leaves found everywhere. A faithful friend is the medicine of life. Friends are rightly called an alter ego and they are perhaps those people with whom we can share our joys and sorrows. Adversity is the litmus test of any friendship. Fake... friends are those friends who deceive us and break our trust somewhere down the line. They talk behind our back rather than talking face to face with us. In times of adversity, they desert others and leave them in a lurch. One should be careful while choosing friends and keep such fake friends at arm’s length. Joan Jett had once rightly remarked, “You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.” It is always good to keep fake or fair-weather friends at arm’s length. Remember, a man is known by the company he keeps.
Mel!

The Shadow of the past holds the future hostage !


The shadow of the past will hold the future hostage only if you let it. The wonderful thing about life is that we all have a chance in every single second of it to change our future. Think about it, with every breath we take, with every thought we think, and with every word we utter, we have the chance to become someone who we never presented ourselves as before.

To a certain extent the past mig...ht always have at least a portion of the future hostage, but truthfully if we are willing to transform our lives and use the past as a stepping-stone for our future endeavours the shadow that our pasts will cast on our future will barely be visible. We must never forget where we came from, but we must also never forget that as long as we believe, there is always hope for a brighter future.

LOVE


When we love someone a lot of times the best way to show it is to not only let them use their own wings to fly, but is also to encourage them to fly as well. Loving someone isn't about keeping them all to yourself so that the world isn't able to see their light shine bright, but is instead holding them up as a candle to the world to create more light. Seeing someone that you love happy will make o...ne feel a thousand times more fulfilled than them being happy themselves alone.
Never be afraid to let your love's light shine bright. You will quickly realize how important it is that when you are in a relationship with someone, seeing them happy makes you just as happy, while seeing them sad or angry will also affect you in those ways. Positive energy produces positive energy, while negative energy produces the opposite.

Happiness also stems from living...


A couple of things in this lifetime that many of us never find before our lives end are our real true selves. Not being able to find one's self, will limit a person in so many ways, mainly because they never get to live life as their self, but also because they can never really live up to their truest potential because they aren't living as whom they really are.

Happiness also stems from living ...as who we really are on the inside, trying to live life as someone that we have no business trying to be will only lead to a life full of emptiness, temporary joy, and dissatisfaction. Sure it may be easy to gain acceptance from our peers and society by living as someone as we really aren't, but we must remember, the easiest path, or the path of least resistance, is the path that those who lose in life take. Be you, find you, and be happy with who you are.

Histoire positive ...

Deux hommes, tous les deux gravement malades, occupaient la même
chambre d'hôpital.
L'un d'eux devait s'asseoir dans son lit pendant une heure chaque
après-midi afin d'évacuer les sécrétions de ses poumons, son lit
était à coté de la seule fenêtre de la chambre.
L'autre devait passer ses journées couché sur le dos. Les deux
compagnons d'infortune se parlaient pendant des heures. Ils
parlaient de leurs épouses et de leurs familles, décrivaient leur
maison, leur travail, leur participation dans le service militaire
et les endroits ou ils avaient été en vacances.
Et chaque après-midi, quand l'homme dans le lit près de la fenêtre
pouvait s'asseoir, il passait le temps à décrire à son compagnon de
chambre tout ce qu'il voyait dehors.
L'homme dans l'autre lit commença à vivre pendant ces périodes
d'une heure où son monde était élargi et égayé par toutes les
activités et les couleurs du monde extérieur.
De la chambre, la vue donnait sur un parc avec un beau lac, les
canards et les cygnes jouaient sur l'eau tandis que les enfants
faisaient voguer leurs bateaux en modèles réduits. Les amoureux
marchaient bras dessus, bras dessous, parmi des fleurs aux couleurs
de l'arc-en-ciel, de grands arbres décoraient le paysage et on
pouvait apercevoir au loin la ville se dessiner.
Pendant que l'homme près de la fenêtre décrivait tous ces détails,
l'homme de l'autre coté de la chambre fermait les yeux et imaginait
la scène pittoresque.
Lors d'un bel après-midi, l'homme près de la fenêtre décrivit une
parade qui passait par-là. Bien que l'autre homme n'ait pu entendre
l'orchestre, il pouvait le voir avec les yeux de son imagination,
tellement son compagnon le dépeignait de façon vivante.
Les jours et les semaines passèrent.
Un matin, à l'heure du bain, l'infirmière trouva le corps sans vie
de l'homme près de la fenêtre, mort paisiblement dans son sommeil.
Attristée, elle appela les préposés pour qu'ils viennent prendre le
corps.
Dès qu'il sentit que le moment était approprié, l'autre homme
demanda s'il pouvait être déplacé à coté de la fenêtre.
L'infirmière, heureuse de lui accorder cette petite faveur,
s'assura de son confort, puis elle le laissa seul.
Lentement, péniblement, le malade se souleva un peu, en s'appuyant
sur un coude pour jeter son premier coup d'oeil dehors.
Enfin, il aurait la joie de voir par lui-même ce que son ami lui
avait décrit. Il s'étira pour se tourner lentement vers la fenêtre
près du lit.
Or, tout ce qu'il vit, fut un mur !
L'homme demanda à l'infirmière pourquoi son compagnon de chambre
décédé lui avait dépeint une toute autre réalité.
L'infirmière répondit que l'homme était aveugle et ne pouvait même
pas voir le mur.
Peut-être a-t-il seulement voulu vous encourager, commenta-t-elle.
Épilogue :
Il y a un bonheur extraordinaire à rendre d'autres heureux, en
dépit de nos propres épreuves.
La peine partagée réduit de moitié la douleur, mais le bonheur, une
fois partagé, s'en trouve doublé.
Si vous voulez vous sentir riche, vous n'avez qu'à compter, parmi
toutes les choses que vous possédez, celles que l'argent ne peut
acheter.
Aujourd'hui est un cadeau, c'est pourquoi on l'appelle présent.
Faites passer
Mel!
