Count time by heartthrobs

Its the 14th day of Ramadan, the mid week, one more day to the children’s day celebrations at school and another long weekend I am so excited ;)). I am definitely keeping this entry short and sweet by posting this inspirational story from daily inspirations. It’s a story from a few weeks ago and I wanted to post it because of the message in the story, another one of those we can relate too.

Hope everyone enjoys this story and hopefully it inspires us all..

Have a great mid week day!

Count time by heartthrobs

We live in deeds, not years;
in thoughts, not breaths;
In feelings, not in figures on a dial
We should count time by heartthrobs.
He most lives
Who thinks most -- feels the noblest -- acts the best."
~ P. J. Bailey

English poet Philip James Bailey (1816-1902) was born in Nottingham
and was the son of a distinguished historian. "The truth of truths is
love," he said.

We live in deeds, not years...

Life is about action. Success is about action. But no matter how much
outer success you achieve, true success and lasting happiness must
come from within.

"Personal success involves not just achieving goals, but feeling
grateful and satisfied with what you have after you get it," observed
writer and psychotherapist John Gray. "Without personal success, no
matter who you are or how much you have, it will never be enough."

Enjoy the process. Celebrate each deed, each thought. "The best part
of one's life is the working part the creative part," explained
writer Garson Kanin. "Believe me, I love to succeed... However, the
real spiritual and emotional excitement is in the doing."

Feel good about every beat of your heart.
