Don’t wait for tomorrow
Today choose to do one thing that will bring you laughter and peace in your heart.
Don't wait until everything in your life is sorted out, and then you will relax and enjoy your day. No! Find moments of fun and happiness now. Don’t wait for tomorrow.
The reality and truth that “no one is guaranteed tomorrow” is etched in my consciousness.
The way you live life is changed forever when you realize the ordinary moments of life are an extraordinary gift.
(The average life expectancy is 78 years, while the retirement age is 65. We work for 50 years to maybe enjoy 11. Start enjoying life now. No one is guaranteed tomorrow.

A true story: A spider's web
He eventually came upon a rocky ledge containing a cave. Knowing the enemy was close behind, and that he was exhausted from the chase, chose to hide there. After he crawled in, he fell to his face in the darkness, desperately crying to God to save him and protect him from his enemies. He also made a bargain with God. He promised that if God saved him, he would serve Him for the remainder of his days.
When he looked up from his despairing plea for help, he saw a spider beginning to weave its web at the entrance to the cave. As he watched the delicate threads being slowly drawn across the mouth of the cave, the young soldier pondered its irony. He thought, "I asked God for protection and deliverance, and he sent me a spider instead. How can a spider save me?"
His heart was hardened, knowing the enemy would soon discover his hiding place and kill him.
And soon he did hear the sound of his enemies, who were now scouring the area looking for those in hiding. One soldier with a gun slowly walked up to the cave's entrance. As the young man crouched in the darkness, hoping to surprise the enemy in a last-minute desperate attempt to save his own life, he felt his heart pounding wildly out of control.
As the enemy cautiously moved forward to enter the cave, he came upon the spider's web, which by now was completely strung across the opening. He backed away and called out to a comrade, "There can't be anyone in here. They would have had to break this spider's web to enter the cave. Let's move on."
Years later, this young man, who made good his promise by becoming a preacher and evangelist, wrote about that ordeal. He wrote: "Where God is, a spider's web is as a stone wall. Where God is not, a stone wall is as a spider's web."

A wise man once said ...
1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they
don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to.
2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the
person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and
character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.
3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone
is giving you a lunch/dinner.
4. Don’t ask awkward questions like: Oh, so you aren’t
married yet? Or Don’t you have kids or Why didn’t you buy a house? Or Why
don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem.
5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It
doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small
by treating someone well in public.
6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try
paying next time.
7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6
to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for
an alternative.
8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it
out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all.
9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it,
stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how
appreciative you're.
10. Say thank you when someone is helping you.
11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately.
12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s
weight. Just say: You look fantastic. If they want to talk about losing
weight, they will.
13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t
swipe left or right. You never know what’s next.
14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors'
appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say: I hope you’re okay.
Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their
personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your
inquisitiveness;
15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO.
Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will
notice if you treat them with respect;
16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your
phone is rude.
17. Never give advice until you’re asked.
18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want
to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary.
19. Mind your business unless anything involves you directly
- just stay out of it.
20. Remove your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in
the street. It is a sign of respect. Moreso, eye contact is as important as
your speech.
21. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor.
Similarly, don't talk about your children in the midst of the barren.
