Blessed July.

Interpreter took him into a dark room where there sat a man in an iron cage. “Who are you?” Christian asked.

“I am not who I once was.” He replied.

“Who were you?”

“I was once a happy and flourishing preacher both in my eyes and in the eyes of others. I thought I was on the way to the Celestial City.”

“What are you now?” Christian asked.

“I am a man of despair and shut up in this cage. I cannot get out.”

Christian asked, “How did you get into this condition?”

The man looked down and said, “I quit watching and praying. I sinned against the goodness of God and grieved His Spirit away. I provoked God to anger, and he has left me. I have so hardened my heart that I cannot ever get out of this cage.”

Interpreter said, “Put this man’s misery to your remembrance and let him be a caution to you.”

Where I see myself in

Become The Player & NOT the Spectator of Your Life

Don't waste your life being a passive watcher of things that you could be doing yourself! In life you must learn to be resourceful and build a drive force that can allow you to be involved in the field rather than to be an observant from afar. Get out of the stands and back on the field, be a part of the game, where the action is, where you get to hit, to score, to win.

• Average people use the tools they have at hand as a form of excapism from their reality, great people utilize the tools they have at hand in a resourceful manner to improve their quality of life.

• Average people use social media as a form of distraction, great people use it for business purposes.

• Average people become complacent with the routines and people/places they have grown accustomed to because they fear change, great people embrace change and allow themselves to get out of their comfort zones to constantly try new things.

• Average people are followers of the crowds, trends, other people's behaviour, lack the capacity to think for themselves. Great people are leaders, trend setters who don't rely on the approval of others to feel secure in themselves and do what's best for them.

• Average people seek comfort, even if that same comfort keeps them stagnated in the same mediocre place, great people learn to thrive in their discomfort because they know that growth can only occur when one pushes oneself our of the boundaries of what we have previously been accustomed to.

• Average people are ok with doing the bare minimum to get by, great people are allergic to mediocrity, complacency and the possibility of succumbing to reaching their maximum potential, they give their best to whatever it is the do or they simply don't do it at all!

• Great people have and seek for vitality, average people numb themselves down with cheap entertainment, fast/unhealthy foods, unhealthy comfort habits and a lack of vision for themselves and their lives.

Do you want to be an spectator or a player in your own life, to be average and mediocre or an over achiever and successful person? The choice and the power to choose that is yours.

Come to think of it.....

Sitted in a Bus. This mom keeps shouting at the child, telling him that he is Stupid. Over and Over! I don't know what this boy did... But seriously, he doesn't deserve such tongue lashing! To those parents who call their kids stupid, idiot, useless.... It will grow on them! Tip: If you have to really call them names, please use names they won't understand... Like my mom did! She probably called me a thousand things! I never knew what they were because she dug deep into our ethnic language words like 'dongomothi'... Like tf, is that even a word! (Yes, I was such a wayward child)....Now That I am grown, I laugh at such words..! They are hilarious. A kid however who hears the name useless and stupid all the time?Gosh. Not cool! Not cool at All!

hahhahahaha... that can as well be described as having an immense mad CRAVING for something.. then when you finally find it, you flash it down the toilet...

I say H_E_L_L_N_O... al take my risks...

*where are such boys anyways? #sigh #sigh #sigh.

TALL BOYS WITH PRETTY EYES AND DEEP VOICES AND MESSY HAIR WHO SMIRK A LOT ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

I don’t put restrictions on myself and neither will any of you!

Dang. The feels. Sheesh.

poem.

when i’m with you i feel like i’m on vacation; time moves slower and nothing else seems to matter.

you crept up on me slowly and now i can’t get you out of my head.

i think about the way you tease me and how i roll my eyes.

i think about how i look at you and you return the gaze with your warm brown eyes.

but even more than that i think of how you make me feel.

safe. like i’m home when i’m with you. how we can cuddle and not have a need to say anything. comfort.

you teach me new things and challenge me to grow as a person.

i think of your touch late at night when you’re not here, and i think of you when i wake up.

i don’t know how you did it, but you have me wanting to be called your girl.

i haven’t given you my whole heart yet because i’m afraid of what you might do with it.

but you’ll see it soon. because i said it feels like i’m home when i’m with you.

and you know that old saying…

home is where the heart is.
