My advice is to be around people who make you feel good........ They do so much that just make you smile

Be proud of the things u can do and not dwell on what u can't.

Love ur self, u are Gods creation.

If the flower is drowning, believe in God, who will lift the flower out of the dirty water to float.

In a forest, a pregnant deer is about to give birth.

She finds a remote grass field near a strong-flowing river.

This seems a safe place.

Suddenly labour pains begin.

At the same moment, dark clouds gather around above & lightning starts a forest fire.

She looks to her left & sees a hunter with his bow extended pointing at her.

To her right, she spots a hungry lion approaching her.

What can the pregnant deer do?

She is in labour!

What will happen?

Will the deer survive?

Will she give birth to a fawn?

Will the fawn survive?

Or will everything be burnt by the forest fire?

Will she perish to the hunters' arrow?

Will she die a horrible death at the hands of the hungry lion approaching her?

She is constrained by the fire on the one side & the flowing river on the other & boxed in by her natural predators.

What does she do?

She focuses on giving birth to a new life.

The sequence of events that follows are:

- Lightning strikes & blinds the hunter.

- He releases the arrow which zips past the deer & strikes the hungry lion.

- It starts to rain heavily, & the forest fire is slowly doused by the rain.

- The deer gives birth to a healthy fawn.

In our life too, there are moments of choice when we are confronted on αll sides with negative thoughts and possibilities.

Some thoughts are so powerful that they overcome us & overwhelm us.

Maybe we can learn from the deer.

The priority of the deer, in that given moment, was simply to give birth to a baby.

The rest was not in her hands & any action or reaction that changed her focus would have likely resulted in death or disaster.

Ask yourself,

Where is your focus?

Where is your faith and hope?

In the midst of any storm, do keep it on God always.

He will never ever dissapoint you. NEVER.

Remember, He neither slumbers nor sleep...

I dont think thats a good habit.. i forgot why but i remember reading somewhere you shouldnt do that: go to people that say good things about you just for that sake .. it was paired with dont go to you relatives/cousins house if you have no reason to go there.................... thanks I kinda forgot about that book I think im gonna get back into it I was like half way through it... I could post a snippit of where it said that in more detail if you want otherwise sorry for disapproving your advice.

No I don't mean go to somone who will say good things about you I meant surround yourself around positive people... Not negativity

I understand what your saying though... But it's not what I meant

People who will help you and give by telling you what you need to change... Sort of like constructive criticism... Hope that makes sense
