WE BECOME WHAT WE THINK ABOUT.

 


FOCUS YOUR THOUGHTS AND ATTENTION ON WHAT YOU WANT AND NOT DWELL ON WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT.



GO AS FAR AS YOU CAN SEE, WHEN YOU GET THERE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE FARTHER.


FAITH IS SEEING LIGHT WITH YOUR HEART WHEN ALL YOUR EYES SEE IS DARKNESS.

BELIEVE, DO NOT GIVE UP - DREAMS DO COME TRUE, SOMETIMES TAKES A LITTLE LONGER.

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.

 

One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.

Until it suddenly stopped making any progress and looked like it was stuck.

Therefore, the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily, although it had a swollen body and small, shrivelled wings.

The man did not think anything of it and sat there waiting for the wings to enlarge to support the butterfly. But that didn’t happen. The butterfly spent the rest of its life unable to fly, crawling around with tiny wings and a swollen body.

Despite the kind heart of the man, he didn’t understand that the restricting cocoon and the struggle needed by the butterfly to get itself through the small opening; were God’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings. To prepare itself for flying once it was out of the cocoon.

 

Moral of the story:

Our struggles in life develop our strengths. Without struggles, we never grow and never get stronger, so it is important for us to tackle challenges on our own, and not be relying on help from others.

DECOUPAGE ON GLASS











 

Note to self: do what you can’t until you can.


 At the end of the day, people will let you down, they will label you as something you are not, it is all to make them feel better, it is about them not you. – Leon Brown


“There’s nothing wrong with hard work, as long as it doesn’t get in the way of life’s more important areas: health, relationships, passion.”


“Yesterday’s solutions may not work tomorrow.”


“The journey is less difficult when we find meaning in the struggle.”


“A paintbrush can create a masterpiece. A paintbrush can destroy a masterpiece. An idle paintbrush, however, does nothing at all.”


“You may have to endure today’s pain to avoid tomorrow’s suffering.”


“There’s often a large difference between what you want and what you think you want.”


“Dreams usually don’t cost money, but the pursuit of money often costs dreams.”


“Accept it, fix it, or let it go.”

“Being cool has nothing to do with the stuff we own: it has everything to do with the ways we act, the ways we treat other people, the ways we contribute—those are the attributes that make people cool.”



THE SERENITY PRAYER

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE;
COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN;
AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
