Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again;
and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.
The most decisive actions of our life ... are most often unconsidered actions.
True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness.
Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.
Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments.
Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole.
Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.
Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

You are so nice Tanja. You are a wonderful young woman. I can understand your feeling, I had almost the same in my previous position. The life is not easy, mainly for the nice and inteligent people.
I don't know what to tell you, jsut I'm thinking often to you.
Take care, cheers,
Karo

How are you little sis? Weekend is here! Been out for a walk with kyra yet! Big smile! :-))))))

" RESPECT "

What is the " TRUE MEANING " of this word " RESPECT "

For the " LONGEST TIME " through out these " MANY YEARS "

" RESPECT " is a " PRECIOUS " yet BEAUTIFUL word in it's own way

" RESPECT ME " as I shall " RESPECT YOU "

SMILE,for I once said

My " WORK " is just as " HARD " for it takes " TIME and PATIENCE "
as we both know.For I " Enjoy " my work...,meeting another author...

SMILE for ME as I shall SMILE for YOU

Dawn

Blessings......
Yeah every once in a while I get to "TIRED" too, what i have found though that over the years that I seldom visit "TIRED" because I started looking at some of the ways I dealt with people's crap, how many ways I didn't honor myself in some crap and learn to control the things that were in my power to control (like the way I allow other people's stuff to inform my behavior and responses), I learn to choose my battles, not own that which has nothing to do with me, not to take everything personally, and how to articulate advocating for myself so that people, things and situations does not trample over me.

Yes you are human, a blessed one with a magnificent capacity to rise up and just be in the midst of all the crap. Peace. and keep your head up.

Lovely entry

Dear Tanja I know what you're saying, I'm going through it myself, my dear I know the feeling. Then some one told me that there are all kind of
people. To have faith, respect, love and belief in my work to do best that I can do is more important than how some may look at me. It isn't a easy
job to become a delegate in mental health where I have to deal with prejudice people. Love and take care my dear Tanja don't let go stay strong.

Faith and hope come from within............but love is shared............live for today and just do your best.....as you cant do anymore than that.
A wise man once said...........
If God, for a second, forgot what I have become and granted me a little bit more of life, I would use it to the best of my ability.
I wouldn't possibly, say everything that is in my mind, but I would be more thoughtful of all I say…I would give merit to things not for what they are worth, but for what they mean to express..
I would sleep less, I would dream more, because I know that for
every minute that we close our eyes, we waste 60 seconds of light.
I would walk while others stop; I would awake while others sleep.
If God would give me a little bit more of life, I would dress in a simple manner, I would place myself in front of the sun, leaving not only my body, but my soul naked at its mercy….
To all , I would say how mistaken they are when they think that they stop falling in love when they grow old, without knowing that they grow old when they stop falling in love….
I would give wings to children, but I would leave it to them to learn how to fly by themselves.

To old people I would say that death doesn't arrive when they grow old, but with forgetfulness.
I have learned so much with you all, I have learned that everybody wants to live on top of the mountain, without knowing that true
happiness is obtained in the journey taken & the form used to reach the top of the hill.
I have learned that when a newborn baby holds, with its little hand,his father's finger, it has trapped him for the rest of his life.
I have learned that a man has the right and obligation to look down at another man, only when that man needs help to get up from the ground..
Say always what you feel, not what you think. If I knew that today is the last time that that I am going to see you asleep, I would hug you with all my strength and I would pray to the Lord to let me be the
guardian angel of your soul….
If I knew that these are the last moments to see you, I would say "I love you".
There is always tomorrow, and life gives us another opportunity to do things right, but in case I am wrong, and today is all that is left to me, I would love to tell you how much I love you & that I will never forget you.
Tomorrow is never guaranteed to anyone, young or old. Today could be the last time to see your loved ones, which is why you mustn't wait; do it today, in case tomorrow never arrives. I am sure you will be sorry you wasted the opportunity today to give a smile, a hug, a kiss, and that you were too busy to grant them their last wish.
Keep your loved ones near you; tell them in their ears and to their faces how much you need them and love them. Love them and treat them well; take your time to tell them "I am sorry";" forgive me"," please“, "thank you", and all those loving words you know!
Nobody will know you for your secret thought. Ask the Lord for wisdom and strength to express them.
Show your friends and loved ones how important they are to you.

lots of love Robert

Hope you have a good day today! Take care, Mei

well said...

~*:.♥.:*~ because you shared a smile :o) someone's day got brighter... ~*:.♥.:*~

If they are rude with you, they don't mean you, Tanja, some clients act as if you were "the institution" itself and they hate their situation, not your person.

Dear Tanja, I know how difficult your job can be sometimes, but dont let it upset you, just do your best and ignore the bad one, but do keep them thinking they have hope! :-) and keep smile.... they might calm down a little. Take care my friend, Mei

Oh my sweet Tanja! Do you not know how deeply you're loved? Your blog is one of the most beautiful places on the entire Internet! That's just a plain fact. Every time I come here, I'm filled with joy at how wonderful a person you are, how brilliant and wise your posts always are! You are sweet as honey, and I am a bee what can't get enough! Don't let them ever sour you. That's just what they'd like. So don't give them what they like. Ignore them. Nothing is more irritating than to realize you just don't count for nothing! What goes around comes around Hun, and they will get theirs paid in full! Christ tells us they get their reward now, but yours is stored safe in Heaven for you where nothing can ever ruin it. I love you with all my heart Tanja! You just never mind them and stay here with your true friends. You are one of Gods greatest handy works! He knows that, and so do we. Kisses...

:Q xxx

I know how you Feel Tanja... you do a difficult job.. and as with my job working with Adults with Learning difficulties, some can be abusive and have challenging behaviours and we cannot retaliate even verbally ( well not as we might perhaps like to react to some of their rudeness)..Sometimes I have to walk away and make them realise that we are there to support them offering help.. However ungrateful they may seem at times... but it is our job... Sometimes the rewards come in seeing the difference we make to their lives.. But others just do not care and can be very selfish and think we have no feelings... Some days I come away mentally drained.. Especailly when on my long shift patterns.. But when we get a thank you or a hug... these are my rewards.. And I see how their lives have improved over the years since they had our support.. that cheers me..
Dont dispair.. I am sure some are really greatful for you help.. Love and Hugs xxx

I don't know what you do, but your strain is clearly showing through. If people are acting that way, warn them the conversation must stop until they speak to you respectfully. If they don't, walk away or hang up. You don't have to accept abuse.

Darling, I'm tired too of the same things, but some people don't care and don't have any respect and some have too much and get hurt...we are human being and we must do the best we can, and I know how you feel...as long as we will be part of this less than perfect world, we will get hurt, it's sad but true...just take good care ok...xxhugs, Pauline
