The Company You Keep!

It is better to be alone than to be in the wrong company.Tell me who your best friends are ..And I'll tell you who you are.If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl. But if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights, "A mirror reflects a mans face, but what he is really like is shown by the kinds of friends he chooses." the simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you closely associate with-for the good and the bad.The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve. any time you associate mediocrity
in others it increases with negative thinking and negative acting people. as you grow , your associates will change. They will want you to stay were they are. Friends that don't help you climb will help you crawl.Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dreams. Those that don't increase you, will decrease you. Consider this: Never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, Because those who never succeed themselves are always quick to tell you how! Not everyone has a right to speak into your life. You are always certain to get the wrong end of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person. Don't follow anyone who is not going anywhere. With some people you spend an evening: with others, you invest in it.Be careful where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life. Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships.

Let's Talk about It

Today I want t0 talk about marriage. I have been married for 7 years to a wonderful man. He treats me like a queen. He still takes me out and opens car doors for me and cooks for me. He does whatever is needed to make me happy. And I do the same for him. What I want to talk about is the men and women who are in unhealthy relationships and can't seem to find their way out. What happens when a man or woman is mentally and verbally abusive? What do you do? What happens when there are children involved? Now don't get me wrong.....we have been there done that! But....What about those who can't seem to break away knowing that this relationship is going nowhere? Over the years I have met so many wonderful and beautiful women in a relationship with what I would call the devil. What I can't understand is why do they stay? Let's talk about it!


I really married my husband because of his difference. It is not my job to make him over, but rather to discover and value that difference!
