Life




Life

"To build a comfortable existence, you must learn to play an intricate instrument called Life. When you receive the instrument, it is rough and out of tune. You must smooth it, tune it and learn to play it. As you learn, it gets easier to create what you want."
--my observation of life

When God begins to inspire and work through you, do not make assumptions or become impatient. Enjoy the moment while thanking God. Be confident in your work and be gracious with others. Assist those who wish to learn but always take care of yourself so that God may continue to work through you.
-my observations of life

If you are stupid, surround yourself with smart people. If you are smart, surround yourself with smart people who disagree with you.

When we are wrong, we must be willing to learn. When we are right, we must to be easy to live with.

Wisdom and Gifts

Wisdom and Gifts Wisdom is knowing if you should accept help from people who offer it. Whether it is a gift or a favor or a service, help usually comes at a price. Be wary of people who offer to help you or give you something with no clear way for you to return the favor with something of equal value. Think about what that person really wants from you.

Wishful Thinking and False Rescue

Jan 14, 2018 Wishful Thinking and False Rescue If you feel trapped and hope for someone to help you, be careful. Not all opportunities are good opportunities. They can turn out to be traps. When you feel desperate, it is difficult to see the potential problems that can result from a decision. Wishful thinking can be hard to resist. But, you must carefully consider how your life will change if you choose to accept help from someone. Think about what you are willing to give that person and what that person expects from you.
