Keep life simple.
Avoid watching for a knock in your motor.
Learn to like work.
Have a good hobby.
Learn to be satisfied.
Like people, say cheerful pleasant things.
Turn the defeat of adversity into victory.
Meet your problems with decision.
Make the present moment a success.
Always be planning something.
Say "nuts" to irritations.
Life Journey Poems
Poet: Unknown
Are you almost disgusted
With life, little man?
I will tell you a wonderful trick
That will bring you contentment
If anything can, —
Do something for somebody, quick.
Are you awfully tired
With play, little girl,
Weary, discouraged, and sick?
I'll tell you the loveliest game in the world, —
Do something for somebody, quick.
Though it rains like the rain
Of the flood, little man,
And the clouds are forbidding and thick.
You can make the sun shine in your soul, little man —
Do something for somebody, quick.
Though the skies are like brass
Overhead, little girl.
And the walks like a well-heated brick,
And your earthly affairs in a terrible whirl —
Do something for somebody, quick.
Poems About Helping Others
by James Mudge
Have Faith in God
What though the dark close round, the storm increase,
Though friends depart, all earthly comforts cease;
Hath He not said, I give my children peace?
Believe his word.
Complain of Naught
To murmur, fret, repine, lament, bemoan--
How sinful, stupid, wrong! God's on the throne,
Does all in wisdom, ne'er forgets his own.
Be filled with praise.
Watch Unto Prayer
Think much of God, 'twill save thy soul from sin;
Without his presence let no act begin;
Look up, keep vigil, fear not; thou shalt win.
See him in all.
Go Armed with Christ
He said, "I come, O God, to do thy will."
Shall we not, likewise, all his word fulfill,
And find a weapon firm 'gainst every ill?
Put on the Lord.
Be True, Be Sweet
Let not the conflict make thee sour or sad;
Swerve not from battle: faithful, loyal, glad--
The likeness of our Saviour may be had.
Aim high, press on!
Christian Poems
Author: John Wesley
Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.
Positive Quotes
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Live your best life, whatever it may bring.
Forget the past, try new things.
Always to your values stay true.
Let go of worries clouding your view
Find joy in work and in play,
Put your best foot forward each and every day.
Life happens, so give it all you've got.
Living at its fullest - what could be better than that?
