Separate Rooms
The Anderson family just moved into their new home when a neighbor asked 5-year-old Tommy Anderson how he liked it.
“It’s great,” Tommy said. “I have my very own room and my brother Alex has his own room, and Jamie has her own room too! But poor mom, she is still with dad…”

One little corner
There's one little corner of your life where you can make an improvement today. Take the opportunity to do so.
There's one little corner of the world where you can make a difference right now. Go ahead and be the person to make that difference.
One little corner may not seem like much. One little corner may not appear to be worth the trouble.
Yet when you get things working well in that one little corner, something wonderful happens. You discover how delightful, inspiring, fulfilling and compelling the experience of achievement can be.
And then you start looking for other little corners where you can work the same magic. One little corner after another, you begin to have a major positive impact.
To achieve great things requires no great effort, just a modest effort repeated again and again. Start right now by improving one little corner, and you're on your way to change the world.

Joke
Learning to Talk
There was a man who couldn't talk and he wanted to learn how.
So he went to an oprera and heard the singer go "Meeeeeeeeeeemeeeeeemeeeeeeee."
Next he went to a pottery store and heard a salesman going "Forks and knives, forks and knives."
Next, in the street he heard a kid go "He stole my lollipop!"
He walked around all day learning these phrases. While he was practicing he accidently walked on a murder scene and practically tripped over the dead guy in the street. Before he knows it, he's talking to a policeman who asks "Who killed this man?"
"Meeeeemeeeeemeeeeee"
"Well, how did you kill him?"
"Forks and knives, forks and Knives"
"But why did you kill him?"
"He stole my lollipop!"
"Okay, you're coming with me mister!"

Life itself
Appreciate beauty, and suddenly you are the beauty. Experience joy, and you become the joy.
There are times in your past that can bring a smile to your face whenever you recall them. Though those particular circumstances have long passed, the joy from them is still with you.
That joy continues to live within you. It is a part of who you are.
Because you are who you are, joy is able to experience itself again and again. Beauty is able to know how wonderfully beautiful it is.
Through your life, love is able to feel its presence. Truth is able to know that it is so.
You are life itself. And in this moment, the magnificent possibilities beckon.

New Flight Attendant
An airline captain was breaking in a new flight attendant. The route they were flying had a layover in another city. Upon their arrival, the captian showed the flight attendant the best places for airline personnel to eat, shop, and stay overnight.
The next morning, as the pilot was preparing the crew for the day's route, he noticed the new flight attendant was missing. He knew which room she was in at the hotel and called her up wondering what happened.
She answered the phone, crying, and said she couldn't get out of her room.
"You can't get out of your room?" the captain asked, "Why not?"
The flight attendant replied, "There are only three doors in here." She sobbed, "one is the bathroom, one is the closet, and one has a sign on it and says "Do Not Disturb!'"
Ice Fishing
An old man walked out onto a frozen lake on a bitter cold winter day. He drilled a hole in the ice, sat on his bucket, put his fishing line in the water and eagerly waited for a fish to bite.
He was there for almost five hours without even a nibble when a young boy walked out, drilled a hole in the ice and sat on his bucket not far from the old man. It only took about one minute and BAM! A huge walleye bit his hook and the boy pulled in the fish.
The old man couldn't believe it and figured it was just luck. Yet, the boy put his fish line in again and within just two minutes he pulled in another huge walleye!
This went on and on until finally the old man couldn't stand it any more. He hadn't caught a fish all day. He went to the boy and said, "Boy, I've been here nearly all day without even a nibble. You have been here only a few minutes and have caught TEN huge fish! How do you do it?"
The boy said, "Oo af o rep ra rums rm."
"What," asked the old man?
Again the boy said, "Oo af o rep ra rums rm.”
Freezing and impatient the old man yelled "Look, I can't understand a word you are saying."
So, the boy took off his gloves, spit a clump of stuff into his hands and said, "You have to keep the worms warm!!"

"Mind is consciousness that has assumed limitations.
We are naturally unlimited until we assume a mind.
Then the evolution begins of progressively limiting
ourselves until we can no longer bear it. When life
becomes altogether unbearable, we then start the
devolution. We reverse the process by letting go of
thoughts more and more until the complete peace and
total freedom from thought is reestablished.
"One makes life easier by recognizing the laws of nature,
which are only the laws of cause and effect. When one
discovers that mind or thinking is the cause, and what

Let life come
What you most sincerely and fundamentally desire, you have already. Drop your shallow pretenses, and you will see.
The power and purpose you seek, are with you even now. Let go of those doubts that have become so comfortable, and you will know.
Stop seeking to classify and to judge every moment, and you'll start seeing each moment's unique treasure. Let life come to you with whatever it brings, and you'll find it bringing more value than you could ever desire.
Those dreams that fill you with joy are no mere illusions. They point to who you truly are.
Those dreams are as real as you allow them to be. Allow them to live at the front of your awareness today.
Right now the richness of life is all around you. Let it carry you along with peace and joy and fulfillment and love.

Compassion With an Umbrella
A Western Buddhist woman was in India, studying with her teacher. She was riding with another woman friend in a rickshaw-like carriage, when they were attacked by a man on the street. In the end, the attacker only succeeded in frightening the women, but the Buddhist woman was quite upset by the event and told her teacher so. She asked him what she should have done - what would have been the appropriate, Buddhist response.
The teacher said very simply, "You should have very mindfully and with great compassion whacked the attacker over the head with your umbrella."

Positive Thought for the Day
Taken From “Acts of Faith” by Iyanla Vanzant
Your crown has been bought and paid for. All you must do is put it on your head.
There is nothing you need that you do not already have.
There nothing you need to know that you do not already know.
There is nothing you want that does not already exist.
There is nothing that exists that is too good for you.
There is nothing anyone has that you can’t have.
There is nothing more powerful, more intelligent, more sacred that you.
You are the stuff life is made of. You are the essence of life.
You have been chosen at this time to be among the living.
You come from a long line of successful living beings.
You are one of the King’s kids.
Born into the world to inherit the kingdom.
You are equipped to handle everything.
You live by grace, built by love.
You are the cause and the reason of everything you see.
You are one with God.
You are creative.
You are alive.
What else could possibly matter?

You are free
You are free to follow the demands of your ego. You are also free to let go of those demands.
You are free to imagine and impose all sorts of limitations upon your life, your actions and who you can be. You are also free to move beyond every one of those limitations.
You are free to think positive, empowering thoughts even when faced with situations that could be considered hopeless. You are free to act in such a way that will bring value and meaning to your life and your world.
You are free to take difficult problems and turn them into spectacular opportunities. You are free to take ordinary moments and turn them into special treasures.
You are free to take whatever may come your way, and direct it toward positive purpose. You are free to fail a thousand times, and then to get back up and achieve stunning success.
You are free to find the beauty and value in all that you experience. Remember always that you are free, to live, to love, and to bring the very best possibilities brilliantly to life.

Marriage Math
I just read that last year 4,153,237 people got married. I don't want to start any trouble, but shouldn't that be an even number?
Blood Race
The junior officers challenged the senior officers at an Air Force Base in North Caroline to see who would donate the most blood.
After trying several times to locate a vein in the left arm of a young first lieutenant, the medical technician applied a Band-Aid, and then inserted a needle into the right arm, drawing blood this time, and then put a Band-Aid on that arm as well.
As he left the collection facility, the lieutenant passed a colonel. Noting the two bandages, he looked at the first lieutenant and shook his head, saying, "I knew you young guys would find some way to cheat."
