Food for thought to everyday!!!
Na 4a feira fui agraciada com um e-mail do meu best ever amigo Rafael agradecendo por ser meu amigo. Ah, puxa.... Acho que ele sabe o quanto é importante na minha vida, o quanto sou feliz por sua amizade, carinho e atenção. Mesmo morando longe um do outro, eu aqui, ele em DC (cidade que nos 'uniu') uma amizade que nunca se distanciou nesses 7 anos.Com Rafa passei uma das mais scaring situações na vida e que hoje anda em voga: fortes turbulências durante um vôo! Rs... Hoje eu dou risada, mas lembro das nossas caras apavoradas naquele vôo de DC para Ft. Laudardale. Só faltou a gente se despedir um do outro, agradecer à família e amigos e esperar a hora final. Hahaha... Nosso avião SÓ passou por cima de uma formação de tornado, entre os estados da Carolina do Sul e Geórgia.
Antecipando a moral da história abaixo: Antes só do que mal acompanhado! Love u, my friend!
THE COMPANY YOU KEEP: It Is Better To Be Alone, Than In The Wrong Company
Today's lesson deals with friendship - The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve. Any time you tolerate mediocrity in others, it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people. As you grow, your associates will change. Some of your friends will not want you to go on. They will want you to stay where they are. Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dream. Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you.
Consider this:
* Never receive counsel from unproductive people.
* Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has a right to speak into your life. You are certain to get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person.
* Don't follow anyone who's not going anywhere. With some people you spend an evening: with others you invest it.
* Be careful where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life.
* Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships.
If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights. "A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses." The simple but true fact of life is that! you become like those with whom you closely associate - for the good and the bad.
