DO WE UNDERSTAND THE EFFECTS OF THE ACTIONS THAT WE ALWAYS TAKE?

DO WE UNDERSTAND THE EFFECTS OF THE ACTIONS THAT WE ALWAYS TAKE? Not very many hours ago, I attended a friend’s wedding ceremony.  before the bride and groom arrived to wedding reception, my friend and i were in a jovial mood. smiling all over like it were the first time i had attended such a function. No sooner had the couple arrived than the crowd sprung  to their  feet t like soldiers ordered by their commander to fire at the enemy to welcome them. Initially, I was in the mood, but within a split of a second, the bright smiles in my face faded like a black t-shirt turning white in colour. something ran into my mind and reminded me about my relationship that was around two months old and already was in balance.

LEAD YOUR LIFE OR BE LED

If you cannot lead life, then let others lead it, but ask yourself where will they lead it. We have all been in situations where you are faced with a great challenge and making a decision has always been hard and other people have always come in to advice us and even sometimes, tell us what to do. It is important to understand that we do not think the same way, even those very identical twins-why should you leave other people to decide for you. People will always think for you, but should never decide for you. I was one time told of a story of a certain young man who happened to be the last born in their home. He had almost all he needed during his high school. You just can’t believe that he accepted his friends to mislead him to the extent that now he is in a very deep depression where he might linger for the rest of his life. During his time at senior five, his friends ill-advised him to join a group of people who sacrifice relatives for riches. He accepted and he was take...
