My Friendliness And My Friends...

A faithful man will slightly feel or not even be lonely for so long, he surely is on demand that if the “author of reality” put a mark on him indicating that he is a faithful man, we would make him the leader of the world. This is what everyone wants to see in anyone he or she will find and call friend; a faithful person he or she can trust; a leader.

A friend told me that he wishes he had friends like mine and I told him,
"If you want a good friend, make sure you can see a ‘good friend’ in yourself. It's only when you are confident that you’re a good friend that people, good people, are attracted to you."

If you become a good friend, a trustable friend, you'll be a friend to friends of your friends, and they'll trust you like or even more than they trust your friends – who knew them before you and introduced them to you or you to them.

You see, it's not easy for a friend, any friend, to introduce you to his or her friends as a good friend and ask them to trust you just as much as he or she trusts you... or, and introduce you as a very faithful, trust worthy, friend... someone he or she can relay on. It's not easy at all, that’s why many times we are not known to friends of our friends.

Giving a friend a description of a trustable friend before friends means you are ready to take on the blame in case that friend does anything funny. And, this is what many of us can’t do for the people we call friends; we know them, we know who they are and what they do or can do, so we can risk our integrity and other friendship ties by convincing other people [friends] to trust them…

This precisely explains the reason why many friends keep their friends [good friends or friends that matter] to themselves. They simply fear that introducing them to some of their friends may compromise their treasured friendship.

A good friend encourages his or her friends to introduce him or her to their friends.

A good friend attracts trust from anyone around him.

A good friend attracts good friends.

A good friend is a good friend indeed.

You And Your Activities...

Sometime back I read a certain text were it was quoted that if you don't give people what belongs to them, who will give you yours? And from the day I read this piece of work my attitude towards serving others [work] and taking my share [I mean what belongs to me] changed. This text taught me that it's through giving others what belongs to them that I earn what belongs to me; my share.

In some other book, one author also wrote that one of the prime principles of success is making your self more important. And, when I thought about this very well, in different perspectives, I realized that this also means that giving people what they deserve, want or need can make someone successful; realize his or her dreams, ambitions or plans.

Now, many of us are employed somewhere and this simply means we are under someone care, responsibility, observation or supervision, and so we are accountable for our activities in our place(s) of work. But what most of us don't know is that our activity in things that belong to others or that have an effect on others has a direct relationship with our dreams, ambitions and plans.

Now friends, put this on your mind and never forget it; when it comes to work, no matter where you apply your knowledge and effort, every effort you make is like a brick added to your dream house [your dreams, plans or ambitions], so put it carefully. Be sure it'll make your dream come out just the way you want it... Serving those around you is the beginning of making your dream(s) come true.

The YOU Tomorrow

It’s a good thing to desire.

It’s a good thing to dream.

And, it’s a good thing to have hope.

All these things are simply good to have no matter what age you have.

It is one thing to have a dream, but it’s another thing to be able to live up to your dreams; this takes more than words or an effort. For your dreams to come true you need to build a character that suits your dreams, a character that will help you live up to the day when your dreams will come true – and one that will help you achieve the challenges you’ll meet while you try to achieve it.

For you to realize your dreams you’ve got to stay alive, and to stay alive you’ve got to keep breathing… This way your dreams will come true.

Desire is a good character, but greed is the evil side of it… it’ll means you get no satisfaction in anything.

Hope is a good thing, but put together with carefulness is a better thing; you’ll never go wrong.

As a youngster, have many desires, dream big and believe in tomorrow, this will help you build a good personality; it’ll give you a reason to live… a reason to respect life (your life) and the lives of all those around you.

The Cracked Pot - What an inspiration!

Looking through my mails I met one titled "the cracked pot"... and I curiously wondered what it was all about, and you can imagine... i opened the mail to read it. A few lines down the story, one statement attracted me to another and so I read it all the way to the end.
This is a very educativew and inspiring story... let's share it;

An elderly Chinese woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a Pole Which she carried across her neck.

One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and Always Delivered a full portion of water.

At the end of the long walks from the stream to the house, the cracked pot Arrived only half full.

For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home only One and a half pots of water.

Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable That it could only do half of what it had been made to do.

After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the Woman one day by the stream.

"I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in my side causes water to leak Out all the way back to your house."

The old woman smiled, "Did you notice that there are flowers on your side Of The path, but not on the other pot's side?"

"That's because I have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower Seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you water Them."

"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate The table.

Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to Grace the house."

**********

Each of us has our own unique flaw. But it's the cracks and flaws we each Have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding.

You've just got to take each person for what they are and look for the good In them.

**********

SO, to all of my crackpot friends, have a great day and remember to smell The flowers on your side of the path!

Without changing any word, that's a story written by an amazing wise individual. It's true that all our weaknesses have an importance, both good and bad, but if you look at the good side, you'll find a reason to comprise with anything faulty around you. Oh, it's really amazing...

About Tommorow...

You see, you won't know how much it hurts when you're despised until you are despised yourself. It really hurts, and it's challenging... it really stirs ambition...

Reaching this far hasn't been so easy, though I've loved all the experiences I've gone through; though some of them haven't been easy at all, but it was worth it that I passed through them all.

I told a friend time back, "when you see someone needy, don't laugh... in a minute you may need him even much more than he needs you now..." And, she took it at heart. A few days later, her mercies were rewarded after she had felt the same for someone needy.

Patience and respect, regardless of what, are such a good character of the heart. And understand is the only way you can prove that you have an idea about the myseries of life.
Those who have them will see amazing things everyday.

People's lives schedules are not like mathematical principles, no, many times they are even challenging to those "calculators of life".

Turning your eyes to the left you'll see someone crying, but by the time you turn you eyes to the right and then back, the person you saw crying may be more happy that you... so, respect humans even when you see them crying... needy...
