Quote(s) #11 The Wedding Homily of Love

I will never forget the homily of the priest on my sister's wedding. It was overall a simple message, but so full of lessons. It was so practical, and funny enough to make me laugh and remember the message all throughout my life.


Here are the snippets of the homily I remember:

1. Do not yell at each other unless the house is on fire.


2. Always be humble and let the other win the argument. (Priest to the couple): Wife, always let your husband win the argument. Husband, always let your wife win the argument.


3. Strive to give words of compliment to each other everyday, for often this habit is lost when couples become married.


4. Do not bring up past mistakes. Live in the future. Let bygones be bygones.


5. Do not go to sleep with an argument left unresolved. Even if it takes the whole night to sort out the problem, resolve the argument before sleeping.


Whatever I've missed, I'll be sure to update here. :)


And again, congratulations to you both! Many blessings and grace to your married life ahead.

Quote(s) #2 Wisdom Quotes






14 Words of Wisdom for the Day

1. Rise with the sun to pray. Pray alone. Pray often. The Great Spirit will listen, if you only speak.

2. Search for yourself, by yourself. Do not allow others to make your path for you. It is your road, and yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.

3. Do not take what is not yours whether from a person, a community, the wilderness or from a culture. If it was not earned or given, it is not yours.

4. Respect all things that are placed upon this earth - whether it be people or plant.

5. Honor other people's thoughts, wishes and words. Never interrupt another or mock or rudely mimic them. Allow each person the right to personal expression.

6. Never speak of others in a bad way. The negative energy that you put out into the universe will multiply when it returns to you.

7. All persons make mistakes. And all mistakes can be forgiven.

8. Bad thoughts cause illness of the mind, body and spirit. Practice optimism.

9. Nature is not FOR us, it is a PART of us. They are part of your worldly family.

10. Children are the seeds of our future. Plant love in their hearts and water them with wisdom and life's lessons. When they are grown, give them space to grow.

11. Avoid hurting the hearts of others. The poison of your pain will return to you.

12. Keep yourself balanced. Your Mental self, Spiritual self, Emotional self, and Physical self - all need to be strong, pure and healthy. Work out the body to strengthen the mind. Grow rich in spirit to cure emotional ails.

13. Be true to yourself first. You cannot nurture and help others if you cannot nurture and help yourself first.

14. Respect others religious beliefs. Do not force your belief on others.
