La Lingua L'amour
Saturday, a day of sabbath rest for some, is another day of work for me. I had a make up class this afternoon and we ended with learning new words in French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese Mandarin.
It seems that learning new things, especially learning a new language is a common hobby for a lot of people. The way we say things is interesting, especially when we can express them in more ways than one.
"What is essential is invisible to the eye." It cannot be seen and can only be felt in the heart.
"We only pass this way once, whatever good we can do, do it now, for we might not pass this way again."
Life has meaning when we love. We are inspired to do better and we expect nothing but the best. Nothing is impossible and the world is such a lovely place to live in.
When we are in love, we have a different way of seeing things and we are more tolerant, understanding and gracious of others. We are more willing to pass off mistakes and we forgive easily. We smile a lot and have a lighter diposition. We give more than what is expected of us and we simply adore being with our loved one. Our focus is total and consuming. We feel incomplete without the other and our whole being yearns for that person's presence.
"It is better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all."
There are times however when expectations and selfish ambitions change our view about a person. In our pursuit of a fulfilled life, we sometimes forget that the reason why we pursue our dreams is to share it with someone we love dearly. Success is measured not with wealth, acclaim or status. The true measure of success is contentment and the pursuit of excellence in all things. We are not content with mediocrity and we always strive to be better in whatever endeavor we undertake. Success is making this world a better place for the one you love.
Is this also your measure of success?
