Virtue...!

If you want to be strong, be patient, thoughtful and understanding. Anyone can be rude, but it takes real strength to be kind and polite.

If you want to be strong, be persistent. Enduring strength does not come in an instant, but is steadily built over time.

If you want to be strong, get in the habit of taking action. The strongest people are those who act while others only talk or wish.

If you want to be strong, be humble. Put your focus on doing, rather than worrying about getting credit.

If you want to be strong, be joyful. When you enjoy what you're doing, you are far more effective.

If you want to be strong, be yourself. The real strength you have is in the authentic person you are.

Vision...!

A young couple moves into a new neighorhood.

The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young women sees her neighbor hanging the wash outside.

"The laundry is not very clean" She said...

"She dosnt know how to wash correctly, perhaps she needs better laundry soaps"

Her husband looked on but remained silent. Everytime her neighbour would hang her wash to dry, the young women would make the same comments.

About one month later, the women was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to herh husband...

"Look, she sas learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this"

The husband said...

“I GOT UP EARLY THIS MORNING AND CLEANED OUR WINDOWS...!"

And so it is with life. What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look...!

SWOT...!

When John D Rockefeller ran the Standard Oil Company one of his senior executives made a mistake that cost over $2 million.

The other executives thought Rockefeller would come down heavy on him and probably fire him.  But he didn't.  Before he called the man in, he sat down, took a notepad and wrote across the top of it:

'Points in favour of this man...' 

Then he listed the man's strengths, including how he'd once helped the company make the right decision and earn them millions of dollars.

One of the senior executives who witnessed it later said,

'Whenever I am tempted to rip into someone, I force myself to sit down and compile a list of the good qualities they have.  By the time I have finished, I have the right perspective.  And best of all, my anger is under control.  I can't tell you how many times this habit has prevented me from committing one of life's costliest mistakes-losing my temper.  I recommend it to anyone who must deal with people...!'

So before you jump to conclusions about someone, stop and ask God for wisdom, then sit down and make a list of their best qualities.  If you do you may come to a different conclusion.  One thing is for sure, you'll approach them with the right attitude and you won't say things you'll later regret.

The Pain...!

The old Master instructed the unhappy young man to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and then to drink it.
"How does it taste?" the Master asked.
"Not good at all," spat the apprentice.

The Master chuckled and then asked the young man to take another handful of salt and put it in the lake. The two walked in silence to the nearby lake and when the apprentice swirled his handful of salt into the lake, the old man said, "Now drink from the lake."

As the water dripped down the young man's chin, the Master asked,
"How does it taste?"
"Good!" remarked the apprentice.
"Do you taste the salt?" asked the Master.
"No," said the young man.


The Master sat beside this troubled young man, took his hands, and said,
"The pain of life is pure salt; no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains the same, exactly the same. But the amount we taste the 'pain' depends on the container we put it into...

So when you are in pain, the only thing you can do is to enlarge your sense of being... Stop being a glass. Become a lake...!"

Mirrors...!

There was place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors.

A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house.

He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself...
 
"This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often...!
 
 
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.

When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself,
 
"That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again...!"

All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet...?
 
Stay tuned, be aware and reflect on the reflections...!
