Success

Success

We must respect each other’s successes. The successes might not be ones we would pursue and the trials may be different from our own, but we must remember they were achieved through hard work, persistence and intellect.

We must also remember and respect our own successes. They are easy to forget as we come up with more desires in life. But we must remember the blessings we have that came as a result of our hard work, persistence and intellect. If we remember our blessings and appreciate each one, we will be driven to hold onto them.


Excellence is an attitude. It is a belief that your efforts should produce high quality work. It is a belief that you should hold yourself to high standards. Therefore, place routines in your day that will build up your mind, body and spirit. Keep physically fit, stretch your brain by reading and problem solving and socialize with people to keep your people skills sharp and your spirits up.

Don’t Be Afraid to Feel Emotion

1/20/2018 Don’t Be Afraid to Feel Emotion Do not be ashamed to feel different kinds of emotion. To feel emotion is human. Love, desire, anger, jealousy, disappointment, sadness and fear are only a few of the emotions we experience in life. It is alright to cry. But, don’t let these emotions cause you to do destructive or irresponsible acts. You can feel an emotion as long as it doesn’t cause you to do sinful behavior. Do not act on emotions that are destructive. Emotions are motivators. Make sure they cause you to do positive actions rather than destructive ones. If you are in love, work on developing a skill that will impress the person you are courting. If you are jealous, work on obtaining something similar to what causes your jealousy. If you are angry, try talking out your problem with your opponent. If you are sad, try spending time with people you love and appreciate the blessings you have. If you are afraid, be brave and confront your fear or try using a new strate...

The Spiral- Earth Day April 22, 2019

Earth Day  April 22, 2019 The spiral is an important symbol. It depicts both stability and change. We are always moving forward in time yet, the repeating cycles of life never end. As we spiral through time, we can adapt and change. The spiral is a good symbol for the cyclic passage of time. It represents the cycles of life, the ecosystems and human cultures through time. It shows the forward movement of existence while emphasizing the cyclic nature of that existence. A spring coil is a good representation. A person's faith is represented by a spiral or coil. The ups and downs of blessings or trials can be seen in the cyclic circular spiral. A person is never trapped in a repeating circle or closed loop because of the linear passage of forward moving time. Even when people suffer, the hardship does not last forever. Each new day represents another step through time and a step closer to the end of the hardship. The forward momentum of time can be a solace while the familiar c...

Love

12/7/2017 Love Women and men, do not be the paramour of a married man or woman. There are many single people in the world and you will find one who is right for you to marry. Marriage is sacred. It is an agreement that two people will stay together as partners. Do not cheapen yourself by being a subordinate lover to someone. Do not cheapen your respect for the object of your affection by driving him or her to take on a paramour. Do not cheapen the love and heartache you feel by turning it into lust. If the object of your affection truly is a worthy match to you, the friendship and connection you share can manifest in non-sexual ways later in life. Separate yourself from your temptation. God will help you find a worthy and available spouse. Find appropriate people and resources to build your life in an upright way. Time heals all wounds. It calms all desires. Given enough time, it can end jealousy because eventually the situation becomes irrelevant to your life. Time helps pe...
