Avoidance

061

.

“Part of the

happiness of life

consists not in

fighting battles,

but in avoiding them.

A masterly retreat

is in itself a victory.”

.

~ Norman Vincent Peale

.

Most battles are ego driven, selfish,

self-centered desires which will benefit no one.

Stubborn, bull-headed, mean, lazy or ignorant

do not constitute good reasons to start a crusade.

Compromise, there is usually a better way.

Today, if you feel that you must fight,

pick a cause that will benefit the whole world.

Remember, even Jesus found it necessary

to confront the money changers in the temple.

Happiness is avoiding the battles.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

At A Loss

057

.

“Friend,

when you speak

this carefully

I know it is

because you don’t

know what to say.”

.

~ Leonard Cohen

.

A true friend is not there just

when the laughs and giggles are flowing,

they are there when the words cannot be found

to adequately express the feelings.

To be a true friend learn to listen

and know that a friend will always tell you

what you need to hear.

Among friends, know that silence

can sometimes be the right word.

Friendship is choosing your words carefully.

Friendship is a priceless gem

that is to be valued and protected.
