o Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.
o Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.
o Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
o You can only go as far as you push.
o Actions speak louder than words.
o The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.
o Don't let the past hold you back; you're missing the good stuff.
o Life's short. If you don't look around once in a while, you might miss it.
o A best friend is like a four leaf clover: hard to find and lucky to have.
o If you think that the world means nothing, think again. You might mean the world to someone else.
o When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there
o True friendship never ends.
o Friends are forever.
o Good friends are like stars....You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.
o Don't frown. You never know who is falling in love with your smile.
o What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?
o NOBODY IS PERFECT UNTIL YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH THEM. (Isn't that the truth?)
o Everything is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end.
o Most people walk in and out of you life. But only True friends leave footprints in your heart
Send this on to everyone special in your life, even the people who really make you mad sometimes. Whether we realize it or not, everyone we know is very special to us.
When we look back on our younger years, we will remember the people who went to school with us, the people who made us laugh, the people who hung out with us when nobody else would, and the people who made our lives much better simply by being a part of it.
There may be somebody who is thinking about you RIGHT NOW and wishing that you were around. That's the wonderful thing about friendship-you always feel loved and cared about.
The most important thing to remember is... Always appreciate the friends that you have.
A fight may come and go very easily, but a friendship could last forever.
For every second spent in anger, a minute of happiness is wasted. So send this to your friends and let them know that you care.

10 Things Money Can´t Buy
Money was originally invented as a unit of account, a measurement tool, used to estimate the value of goods and possessions.
Before the invention of money, people used to trade quantifiable goods they had an excess of, for other measurable things they could not harvest, make or grow. Trading was the only way people had to get access to vital resources, critical for their survival and protection, such as food, animals, tools, and fabrics, which they could not get otherwise.
As societies expanded, and trading transactions became less homogenous and more complex, the trading system colapsed. This situation forced the need for a standard unit of measure, which could help homogenize the value/cost of the heterogeneous goods being traded between individuals or communities.
Ironically, thousands of years ago, people struggled to assign standard trading values to quantifiable stuff. Today people seem to struggle to distinguish between the value of things, and invaluable things.
Our educational system, combined with our current socio-economical doctrines, has lead most people in this planet to see money as an object of cult, creating what some authors call the new “Money Culture”.
The beginning of a new year is a perfect time for reflection; an excellent occasion to rearrange our priorities, and to set up new goals. A unique opportunity to make an introspective analysis of our real values, principles and beliefs.
The list below is a compilation of wise quotes and statements on the top 10 things money can´t buy. I wish 2015 brings you and your loved ones a lot of:

Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents
The handbook offers practical advice and techniques on how to create a blog, make entries and get the blog to show up in search engine results. It gives clear explanations about blogging for all those whose online freedom of expression is subject to restrictions, and it shows how to sidestep the censorship measures imposed by certain governments, with a practical example that demonstrates the use of the censorship circumvention software Tor.
The leaders of authoritarian countries are becoming more and suspicious of bloggers, these men and women who, although not journalists, publish news and information online and who, worse still, often tackle subjects the so-called traditional media dare not cover. In some countries, blogs have become an important new source of news. It is to protect this source that Reporters Without Borders has updated its handbook.

27 Bits of Wisdom from 2012 Commencement Addresses
At Goucher College last month (May 2012), Ira Glass said that commencement speakers “give stock advice, which is then promptly ignored.” He may be right. Every year, speakers spew the same old sayings: Never give up! Embrace failure! Be passionate! Here’s a look at speakers who said things a little differently this year.
