Think Right, Act Right

It amazes me to see how much

we have eluded ourselves of certain truths

So much that take fun out of living

I am perplexed when I see people go around

complaining bout how much their life would be better 

if they had a spouse

Some are quick to complain

bout how badly everyone treats them

No matter the group you fall into

Please take your time and read this post

Ponder on them and share your views

For those who think they are treated unfairly

Make no mistake about this truth

People are programmed to treat you unfairly

Believe it or leave it

It takes One a true friend or

secondly, a refined mind to treat you differently

So expecting everyone to treat you fairly

is the number one recipe for depression

My question is this

Must you always rely on people?

Do you not have the capacity to rely on yourself?

Why would you expect so much from others

to the extent that you get devastated

when they behave otherwise?

Even the bible declares that

"it is better to trust in  the Lord than to put confidence in man"

Jeremiah declares that "Cursed is the man who trusts in man"

Friends instead of putting your trust in flesh and blood

Trust God and believe in yourself

Treat yourself well

Cos it is an illusion to expect people

to treat you better than you treat yourself

For those who feel they need to be in a relationship to feel complete

I want to tell you a true life story I watched on "Trisha"

(Trisha is a program that is aired on Sony Entertainment TV every weekday")

There is this lady who was amputated at age 6

And she grew up been looked upon as a disabled

But she said that while in school she decided she will prove

The Doctors wrong cos she was told she can never give birth

Cos she was amputated from below the waist

She decided to live as normal as she can

And navigates using a customized skate board

she was living a normal, jolly life.

One day at the grocery store she met a guy

They talked for a while and later became close friends

According to the guy he was attracted to her cos

Despite her condition she was so positive minded

And was of a jolly disposition

Later they got married and she fulfilled her dream of

Defying the doctors report

She now has 2 kids

Amazingly her husband is not disabled in anyway

Ask yourself this question

If a lady who had no laps, no legs and

moves about on skate board Can condition her mind

to see beyond disability and live a normal life

(went to school, engaged in sports and kept friends)

What excuse do you think you have?

You who is whole, hale and hearty

And you think you are disabled cos you don't have a spouse

Such that you go about with bitterness and anger

Know this

Nothing can take the place of self development

Consciously develop your mind and think differently

You cannot continuously feed your mind with junk

and expect your body not to feel like a waste dump

No matter how pretty you are

You will repulse eligible spouse with your bitterness and anger

It doesn't matter how much your wig,

perfume, clothes or accessories cost

If you feel like shit internally, it will reflect outwardly

Your life will be better if and only if your mind is right

Feed your mind with the right thoughts

Only then will your poise be on point

And you will attract not just every Tom, Dick and Harry

But the right kind of friends and ultimately

The spouse you so desire

Think Right, Act Right.
