selfish

Leave the quarters of the close-fisted selfishness and live in the edifice of an open-handed generosity. God gives to you, so you can share when it's required of you! Give out; conquer greed!

It__ unfair to see managers buying brand new cars for themselves when the salaries of their workers still remain unpaid! Good leaders are not selfish thinkers!

Simply minding one's own business is more offensive than being intrusive. Without ever saying a word one can make a person feel less-than.

Females and boys are the only creatures that propose others for friendship. As for the rest of us, friendship sort of just happens.

I think this is one bad side of a mirror; it helps us to see the reflection of the effects of our own actions on ourselves. We smile and it smiles back to us, we frown and it frowns to us. How I wish it shows us the reflections of the effects of our actions on other people as well so that we will be conscious!

Some of our friends are our friends only because we used to be friends.

If I have attached anything to sacrifice other than loss, I have at some level assumed a pay-off. And if I__e assumed a pay-off, I__ only assuming a sacrifice.

If you haven__ figured it out yet, an absolutely certain way to lose something as quickly as possible is to forget the privilege you have to possess it in the first place.

Forgiveness is almost a selfish act because of its immense benefits to the one who forgives.

These are the few ways we can practice humility:To speak as little as possible of one's self.To mind one's own business.Not to want to manage other people's affairs.To avoid curiosity.To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.To pass over the mistakes of others.To accept insults and injuries.To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.To be kind and gentle even under provocation.Never to stand on one's dignity.To choose always the hardest.

I__ a cold-hearted bastard. I__ insular, I__ jaded, a workaholic, I__ ruthless and I__ self-serving. I don__ do forever, I rarely even do ____l call you tomorrow_. And just because I__ here now it does not mean if you ask me to stay I will.

Often times you may find yourself in a relationship with a guy who looks like he is a mature adult, but then you find out that he__ just a selfish baby underneath that wonderful expensive cologne.

In some rare cases, a friendship between two people benefits both of them, and what__ more, in some rarer cases, it benefits both of them equally.

At first I did not love you, Jude; that I own. When I first knew you I merely wanted you to love me. I did not exactly flirt with you; but that inborn craving which undermines some women's morals almost more than unbridled passion--the craving to attract and captivate, regardless of the injury it may do the man--was in me; and when I found I had caught you, I was frightened. And then--I don't know how it was-- I couldn't bear to let you go--possibly to Arabella again--and so I got to love you, Jude. But you see, however fondly it ended, it began in the selfish and cruel wish to make your heart ache for me without letting mine ache for you.

I guess that__ how well you know me. You think I like hearing this news._____ sorry. This is selfish. I just need to tell someone _ outside my life. Get it out of myhead, to keep from going nuts, but somewhere safe.__he sees me as safe? This brings tears to my eyes.__ trust you, Clem. Are you pissed?

THE MOTH AND THE BUTTERFLYWhen the sun rises over the horizon,the butterfly emerges to dance in its brilliant light.It flickers its colorful wings with euphoria,To celebrate all the beauty foundin the majestic garden of life.When the moon arrives in the darkness,The moth appears at the disappearance of sunlight.It flickers its pale wings as it shakes from its deep slumber,To go search for foodTo carry it through the night.The moth prefers the moon and detests the sun,while the butterfly loves the sun and hides from the moon.Every living creature responds to light,But depending on the amount of light you have inside,Determines which lamp in the skyYour heart will swoon.

People love answers, but only as long as they are the ones who came up with them.

The best formula for a prayer that gives J.O.Y:J- 1st, Pray to JESUSO- 2nd, Pray for OTHERSY- 3rd, Pray for YOURSELFMost people distort the formula by praying selfish prayers for their own personal gains. JYO is not the spelling for joy. In JOY, O comes before Y. It means you pray for OTHERS before YOURSELF.
