7 Lovely Logics and What They Mean to Me

Found a wonderful quote-pic which lists "7 Lovely Logics" and indeed they are quite lovely. No doubt, just like me, every person could read them and supply their interpretation of what these logics means to them.

1) Make Peace with your Past, so it doesn't spoil your Present.

This saying is so true. You need to realize that very few people go through life without making mistakes, without doing some things they regret, etc. Nobody is perfect and sinless. There may be people who won't forgive you and choose to make peace with you. But if you can open your eyes every day and find something productive and profitable to do for the Present time that you have, then, DO IT! You can't FORGET your Past. Nevertheless, it's over! You can't go back to relive that time in order to do things differently. But you can make peace with yourself and Carry On.


2) What others Think of you is None of your Business.

Take this advice with a grain of salt. There are those who love you dearly and think very highly of you. They want others to think highly of you too. What they think of you IS YOUR BUSINESS. Listen to them and weigh their words very carefully IF they criticize what you say or what you do. They are very likely telling you something that's for your own good. But as for the HATERS? You don't need to give their words half an ear. IGNORE THEM!


3) Time Heals Almost Everything. Give the Time, Some Time.

I have lived long enough to know that time does heal almost everything. “Almost”. There is some pain you feel in your heart that doesn't heal, no matter how much time passes. The hurt doesn't go away. You just learn to live with it.


4) No one is the Reason for your Happiness, except You yourself.

Don't rely on or depend on others for your happiness and joy in life. But if there is someone or some people who ARE THE REASON for your happiness, count your blessings.


5) Don't compare your Life with others. You have No Idea what their journey is all about.

I wonder if the person who wrote this quote knew my mother. My mom used to tell me that constantly. Don't wish for the life of other people because you don't know what's happening in their lives. I took her advice on this.


6) Stop Thinking too much. It's Alright not to know all the Answers.

I say: There's no such thing as thinking “too much”. You should think as much as you want. But your thoughts won't always produce the answers to all of your questions. And that's OK. Lots of people live their life with unanswered questions. They still live!


7) Smile. You don't own all the Problems in the World.

Smile BECAUSE you don't own all the problems in the world. I would also like to add some advice that I once heard from a psychologist. She said: Recognize when the problem is YOUR problem and YOU need to solve it. Don't take on somebody else's problem and make it your problem. If it's their problem, they need to solve it.

Can I get an AMEN?

Four (4) Flowers I Love and What They Mean | Forum Coin

For the new year 2020, one of my new year resolutions was to try each day to brighten someone else's day by sharing a positive message and or sharing lovely pictures of flowers. Flowers often make people happy not just because of their diverse beauty but for what they symbolize.

African violets, Baby's Breath, Cape Primrose and the Desert Rose are four (4) flowers that I love.  I would like to share with you what they mean.

African violets are native to Tanzania and Kenya and they are remarkably easy to grow, indoors or outdoors. African violets are one of my favorite flowers because of its rich purple color. (It grows in other colors but I like the purple ones.) I love it even more since I learned that they are symbols of friendship and faithfulness.

Baby's breath flowers symbolize many things and it's easy to see why they are often included in a bridal bouquet. They represent not just romance and love, but everlasting love. They also symbolize innocence and purity, compassion, sincerity, and trust. Key ingredients in everlasting relationships. Don't you think so?

Cape primrose is a flower that has several species and is native to South Africa. One doesn't usually associate fairies with Africa but somehow people have associated these flowers with fairies. There is a whimsical belief that fairies care for them. What do they symbolize? Just about everything one would desire in this life. Perfect health. Good luck. A brand new start in life. Spiritual paths that lie ahead. Purity. Honesty. But most importantly, love. FUN FACT: Cape Primrose is a cousin of African violet.

I wanted this article to be just about flowers. But I have had to stray from the path a little bit. Popular singer/songwriter Sting sings a song he titled “Desert Rose”. The song is about a woman of course; but I became curious as to whether there is such a flower. It turns out there is a flower by that name and also a gemstone.

~ Desert Rose, the flower
The flower called “desert rose” is not a rose. It is an adenium plant and adeniums have various meanings to various cultures. The Chinese call it fuguihua which means Flower of Prosperity. I like the sound of that. Do you? Adeniums are evergreen ornamental plants and it is said that they make great houseplants as they are easy to grow, come in lots of different colors, and there are numerous hybrids.

~ Desert Rose, the gemstone
The gemstone that is known as “desert rose” has been credited with having awesome healing powers, mainly for treating mental and emotional health problems. Supposedly this stone can be used to calm you, relieve your anxiousness and worry, help you think more clearly and makes your thinking more flexible. The stone has come to symbolize strength, perseverance, having the confidence to succeed, and standing your ground. When referring to the flower, it means “prosperity”. When referring to the stone it means “energy flow”. The folklore that has developed around this gemstone claim it has almost miraculous healing powers such as controlling epileptic fits, straightening out your spinal column, and removing energy blockages. Consequently, some believe the desert rose possesses a spirit guardian, and so they use them as protective talismans. Better safe than sorry. Unlike most gemstones, the desert rose actually feels like soft rose petals. Have you ever touched a gemstone that felt soft like a flower?
