Not all things are what they seem.
We think that when things are bad, they can’t get any worse, well we know they can and do.
When all seems lost it isn’t.
When all things seem great they are not.
When nothing seems just, it is.
How do we deal with this? How do we ever know what is true and right?
Most of the time our worries hang on one little thought that we mull over and over in our mind and is generally not worth worrying about.
Have you ever done or said something and other people have taken the credit. Well don’t get hung up on these little things your reward will come your way eventually. Probably, not from where you would expect it!
Be careful of walking in pride it will come back to curse you. The wheels grind slowly but grind very fine. As someone once said the halo you carry on your head will slowly slip down and turn into a noose.
Have you ever said I have been humbled by this or that experience, and have truly learned from it?
If it hadn’t been for him! If she hadn’t said! If that person hadn’t done! If the company hadn’t! Well we can place blame wherever a person wants but it really boils down to looking inside and being at peace with yourself.
I know, but this is a bunch of scattered thoughts that have been bouncing around in my brain over the last couple of weeks.

ReplyDeleteThis comment is a Life Lesson that I was taught in Kung Fu and has always stuck with me.
Jeff talked about not worrying about people speaking your words on behalf of themselves and it has carried me a long way in life. Thank-you for one small lesson amongst the many I have taken with me from my time with Silent River. Love and light...
