negative emotions

In order to encourage a positive attitude from others, you should first adopt a positive attitude towards yourself because the negative emotions that you project in response to others, reflect how you feel about yourself. 

Blame

When you blame others for your shortcomings in character,you surrender the power you have to change.

Fear and Respect

We should not mistake being feared with being respected. Respect has a quality that fear does not;TRUST.

Life

 
 
Where there is life, there is hope.

Hope

Hope cannot be destroyed. What changes is where you look for it and where you find it.

Life and death

One should not live life with a fear of death as the end to all thingso, but with the wisdom of knowing that life is the iwill ugrowth in energy and death is the transfor5uyymation of energy. When someone passes on, we miss their energy in the form that we ooknew it , but their life is not over, it has founood a new beginning and our lives are not empty, but transformed to live in the spirit ofo what lthe naked eye cannot see. 

Change

The only certainty life grants us is change; what is not yet, shall be and what is will pass. How do you the prepare for change? expect it and embrace it as the evolution of life and not the end of it.

The ups and downs

Relationships have their ups and downs. The "up" is when we celebrate what we have overcome together, the "down" is when we face our weaknesses and learn from our mistakes.

Fear

What you fear in others reflects the weakness that you see in yourself.

Embracing life



Embracing life is becoming aware of a problem and choosing to face it.

Embracing life is looking for hope and finding it in the strength of your spirit

Embracing life is approaching a problem with a sense of urgency 

Embracing life is valuing time by making choices positive choices

Embracing life is accepting disappointment as an opportuniy to become more creative in solving a problem

Embracing life is solving a problem and opening the door to possibilities that expand your horizon

Embracing life is embracing pain and realising that healing begins with taking responsibility for your choices and the consequences.









Problems

The reason that we do not foresee tomorrow's  problems  is because we choose to ignore the problems that are here today.

Success

Success does not entertain self pity but innovation and creativity.

Reflections

When you use other people's opinion as your mirror, they will reflect thier perception of who you are  based on thier bias and prejudice.When you look into the Word of God to see who you are, the reflection that you will see will not show you your faults, but all your potential.

Power

Power earns you respect but only when that power is given to strengthen the weak and not consumed by subduing the helpless.

Respect and Power

Respect is not earned by exercising your power over someone  but in using  your power to love someone else.

A house of brick and mortar

Holiness is not found in house that can whether a storm because it is made of brick and mortar and stands tall in its own majesty, but in a soul that is too weak to stand on its own and is strengthened by the Word of God.

The prayer of a humble servant

Lord, I know you will reward a faithful servant. Grant me the grace not to abandon your Word in times of peace or sorrow in search for my own glory, but to wait for the glory that you will bestow upon me; which is the fruit of your Word.

Seeing the truth

 Our two eyes cannot see the truth; only the superficial. Truth is seen through an open mind; a soul that has let go of the ego to receive the Word of God.

Truth comes as whole

An inflated ego will narrow your mind to see only what you are looking for; the rest of the picture is hidden from you.When you look with a squint, you will not see the truth, because truth comes as whole.

Finding Truth

Truth is not found in what we are expecting because our expectations superimpose our self perceptions on reality.Truth is found when we do not know what we will find, and so we approach everything with an open mind.

Sorrow

Sorrow makes us realize how frail we are in our flesh.Sorrow urges us to draw strength from our spirit in order to overcome the weaknesses of the flesh.

A great teacher is one who follows his own lessons. A great student is one who is willing to face his own weaknesses in attempting a challenge.
