"Slow down and pay attention"

I was walking through a very busy shopping centre earlier today and ahead in the distance I saw an old man with a walking stick trying to bend down to pick up some medicine he dropped on the floor. In the time it took for me to reach him I could tell he would struggle for a while so I picked them up, put them in his hand, made sure he was okay and then went on my way.

Now reflecting back I think it was kind of a sad but enlightening moment. There were so many people rushing passed this man left and right, even stopping in front of him as if he was in the way and then just passing him. Clearly I don't know what everyone else had going on at the time and maybe it was just luck that I happened to just be idly strolling home at the time, but it just made me think....

Sometimes we are rushing around so much that we don't notice the people who are struggling in front of us and may just need a simple helping hand or words of encouragement.

I guess there are 5 words that sum it all up....."Slow down and pay attention"

Have a POSITIVE ATTITUDE...!!!

1) Heavy rains remind us of challenges in life. Never ask for a lighter rain. Just pray for a better umbrella. That is attitude.

2) When flood comes, fish eat ants & when flood recedes, ants eat fish. Only time matters. Just hold on, God gives opportunity to everyone!

3) Some people always throw stones in your path. It depends on you what you make with them,Wall or Bridge? Remember you are the architect of your life.

4) Every problem has (n+1) solutions, where n is the number of solutions that you have tried and 1 is that you have not tried. That’s life.

5) It’s not important to hold all the good cards in life. But it’s important how well you play with the cards which you hold.

6) Often when we lose all hope & think this is the end, God smiles from above and says, relax dear its just a bend. Not the end. Have Faith and have a successful life.
