Rediscover The Light Within

An interesting analogy we all need to take to heart…. The man doesn't know that there is a snake underneath.
The woman doesn't know that there is a stone crushing the man.

The woman thinks: “I am going to fall and I can't climb because the snake is going to bite me! Why can't the man use a little more strength and pull me up!"

The man thinks: “I am in so much pain! Yet I'm still pulling you as much as I can. Why don't you try and climb a little harder?!"

The moral is: You can't see the pressure the other person is under, and the other person can't see the pain that you're in.

This is life, no matter whether it's with work, family, feelings or friends we should try to be patient and understand where each of us is coming from. Especially when someone acts a little differently than normal such as withdrawing or lashing out.

We need to be kinder, more accepting of each other, to think a little differently and perhaps more clearly to understand what the other person may be facing. This could help us communicate better with one another better and stop unnecessary anger, arguments or division.

These days, a little thought, patience, caring and understanding can go a long way when dealing with others.

Often, when we strive for perfection, we don't move forward. It's okay to not be perfect! Those who win take imperfect action!

If you never try, you could be missing out on something wonderful!

What is a time you felt pulled backward but then realized it propelled you forward in life later?
Times may feel tough now but just like an arrow, sometimes we need to be pulled backward in order to propel ahead in life.

How do you react when faced with fear?

Go through the process, go through the pain, and if you stick through it, you will have success! So... What's the obstacle you're facing or going through right now?!? Whatever you do, don't give up!!!

We often see bumps in the road as setbacks, but when we look back on them, we see that those bumps were more spring boards that made us into the person we are today! Even to this day, I am still discovering how what I thought were setbacks were really just blessings in disguise.

Sometimes we let fear get in the way of our dreams and our goals. But just like working a muscle, we have to work at overcoming our fears & putting aside our fears and having courage instead. That's where the magic begins!

Laughing is so important for our mental and physical health! Have you had a good laugh today?

With all that’s been going on in society the last while, I thought this story below was fitting! Who Shook The Jar?

"If you collect 100 black ants and 100 fire ants and put them in a glass jar, nothing will happen.

But if you take the jar, shake it violently and leave it on the table, the ants will start killing each other.

Red believes that black is the enemy, while black believes that red is the enemy, when the real enemy is the person who shook the jar.

The same is true in society.

Before we fight each other, we must ask ourselves:

Who shook the jar?”
