If you see someone fall behind, slow down and walk beside them. If they are being ignored, just include them. If someone has been knocked down, take time to lift them up. You will never know how much it means to them unless you’ve fallen behind, been ignored or knocked down yourself. People need to feel they have value. One small thing to you may mean the world to someone else.

”No matter what you do, someone will always talk about you. Someone will always question your judgment. Someone will always doubt you”. So what do you do about it? Just smile and make choices YOU can live with. Trust yourself a little more. You’ve got this! You know the heart of God and truthfully, He’s the only One you need to please.

Our beliefs don’t make us a better person. Our behavior does. Our behavior should follow our beliefs. If we believe that people are to be kind and we spend our time being UNKIND, something’s wrong. If we believe that prayer changes things but we never take time to pray, nothing changes. Want to be a better person…line up your beliefs and behavior. If we don’t, we’re living a hypocritical life.

  ”If you spend too long holding on to the one who treats you like an OPTION, you’ll miss finding the one who treats you like a PRIORITY.” This is true in every area of our life…romance, friendship, business…you name it. Nobody wants to be #2 if #1 doesn’t work out. Nobody wants to be considered a last resort. Want to know if you’re someone’s priority? Sit with someone who keeps talking on the cell phone while you wait for them to remember you’re there. Trust me…you’re just an OPTION…and they chose their priority when they hit “answer”.

  What does everybody have that nobody else wants? An opinion. Opinions are a dime a dozen…When we have an opinion, it’s amazing how we suddenly think we’re brilliant and have the answers to everybody else’s problems. Kind of a shame that we don’t have the answers to our own. Be careful who you give an opinion to…they may just look at your life, see how you’ve handled it and walk off laughing.

  Are you tired of trying to figure out who is with you, against you, or walking down the middle because they don’t have the guts to back a friend? Life is too short to leave the key to your happiness in someone else’s pocket. Stop trying to find out who has one face or two. Stop trying to figure out what you can do to change their mind. Don’t give the key to your heart to people who don’t look at it as a treasure.
