Four important looks

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Monday, 26 Jan '09

“The four important looks in your life - Look back and get experience, Look forward and see hope, Look around and find reality, Look within and find confidence.”

--Anonymous

My Thoughts:
This is such a wonderful quote! Just see how by merely looking at four different places can find four precious things.

Look at your past, learn from mistakes and get experience. Look optimistically at your future and see hope. Look at present and things around and you know what’s happening and Look at yourself and find out what are you capable of and be confident.

All I have is Hope

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Saturday, 27 Dec '08

“Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all they have.”

--H. Jackson Brown Jr.

My Thoughts:
I have seen and met many people in life who don’t have anything materialistic. They are penniless with no-skills, but full of hope.

And this hope is all that is keeping them alive, giving them a purpose of life. And we have to understand that many a times our words and actions could actually take away hope from people. And chances are that they are such people who may have only hope to keep them going.

Finite disappointment, finite hope

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 13 Nov '08

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope."

--Martin Luther King, Jr.

My Thoughts:
A great motivational gem from one of the greatest leader the world has seen. When we don't achieve what we had thought, we get disappointed. But let me tell you, this disappointment has a full-stop somewhere.

All you have to do is that accept this as a finite failure and start moving towards you goal. Because hope is something which has no full-stop.

I care for your Hope

"Beware how you take away hope from another human being"

--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

 My Thoughts:
When someone comes to ask to share his/her problems, we might unknowingly transfer our fears to that person. We instead of consoling him might make his situation worse.

This does not mean that you console the other person with false promises. But rather, I mean to say (in context with the above quote) that lets not take away that small light of hope from that guy. Let’s make a conscious effort!
