I NEED YOU NOW

My friend, I need you now

Please take me by the hand.

Stand by me in my hour of need,

Take time to understand.

Take my hand, dear friend,

And lead me from this place.

Chase away my doubts and fears,

Wipe the tears from off my face.

Friend, I cannot stand alone.

I need your hand to hold,

The warmth of your gentle touch

In my world that's grown so cold.

Please be a friend to me

And hold me day by day.

Because with your loving hand in mine,

I know we'll find the way.

Be Focused

An ancient Indian sage was teaching his disciples the art of archery. He put a wooden bird as the target and asked them to aim at the eye of the bird.

The first disciple was asked to describe what he saw. He said, "I see the trees, the branches, the leaves, the sky, the bird and its eye..."

The sage asked this disciple to wait. Then he asked the second disciple the same question and he replied, "I only see the eye of the bird."

The sage said, "Very good, then shoot." The arrow went straight and hit the eye of the bird.

:: Moral of the Story ::
Unless we focus, we cannot achieve our goal.

It is hard to focus and concentrate, but it is a skill that can be learned.

Allow Your Own Inner Light to Guide You

There comes a time when you must stand alone.

You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams.

You must be willing to make sacrifices.

You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved.

Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged.

There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities.

Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better.

Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by.

Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.

Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way.

Thoughts...

Don't hold to anger, hurt or pain.             
They steal your energy and keep you from love!

I believe the single most significant decision I can make on a day-to-day
basis is my choice of attitude, my successes or failures, fame or pain.


It is more important than my past, my education, my bankroll, what other
people think of me or say about me, my circumstances, or my position.
Attitude keeps me going or cripples my progress.

It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hope.


When my attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too
deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me!
