Choose kindness

EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE, I LEARNED FROM NOAH'S ARK

1. Don't miss the boat

2. Remember that we are all in the same boat

3. Plan ahead.  It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark

4. Stay fit.  When you are 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big

5. Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done

6. Build your future on high ground

7. For safety sake, travel in pairs

8. Speed is not always an advantage.  The snails were on board with the cheetahs

9. When you are stressed, float a while

10. Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals

11. No matter the storm, when you are with God, there is always a rainbow waiting

He restores my soul

DEAR SELF

Dear Self,

Promise to treasure your time

Don't fall in love with potential

Remember that just because you want it, doesn't mean it deserve to have you

Be patient, but don't procrastinate

Be hopeful, but not naive

When it is right, you will know

You don't have to force it
