Something to inspire us all…

Let me share with you this email forwarded to me by a friend… An unemployed graduate woke up one morning and checked his pocket. All he had left was $10. He decided to use it to buy food and then wait for death as he was too proud to go begging. He was frustrated as [...]

Worry wart

I’ve read this from an email a friend sent to me… I will remain vigilant to opportunities, which come to me disguised as irritations. I will tame each situation and make good use of it. I am the type of person who easily gets depressed. For some reason, I translate a small problem into a [...]
