![]() The friend who holds your hand and says the wrong thing is made of dearer stuff than the one who stays away. Barbara Kingsolver. True Friends We are made for Friendships, But a real friendship is never accidental, they are cultivated over time. Friends are those who will help you to be wise. Friends are part of our education, & how we learn. Proverbs 13:20, "He who walks with Wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed." Do your friends help you make wise decisions? Or lead you astray? Do they bring our the best in your life? As Iron sharpens Iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friends. Proverbs 27:17 True friends are those who will share your burdens. A friend can be counted on in a crisis. Galations 6:2, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ." A True Friend is somebody who sees you through when others let you down. They are people who are not self-centered. True Friends are not those who only look out for themselves. True Friends are people who will help you grow spiritually. We all need spiritual encouragement to grow. True Friends will pray with us and lift us up, spiritually and help us keep the course for the Lord. Hebrews 10:24 - 25, "And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as in the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching." Pursue Friendship with people who know God, and have a strong relationship with Him. True Friends are not just people to socialize with and have fun with, they help us grow in God. They pray with us when we are discouraged, they stand by us. They guide us and do good for the glory of God. Life is full of people who will make you laugh, cry, smile till your face hurts and sooo happy that you think you'll burst. But the ones who leave their footprints on your soul are the ones who keep your life going. A True friends' friendship is like the sun coming up each morning, its something I can count on to warm up my whole world &brighten up my Life. I'm sorry if I have hurt you, But I have tried my best to be a True Friend. I have put in my best into our Friendship. Its like a beautiful web, but Right now I'm stuck and I want to get out.

![]() He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city. Proverbs 16:32 Anger Management. Mainly in this world, we live in constant stress by work and life. And what comes out from stress and other mixed emotions, is Anger. When we are stressed or when we're having mixed emotions, we get easily angry with everything, that doesn't go out way. Then often we ask, How do I manage my anger? 1. We can actually, reflect before we react. Thus dont be impulsive. -Whenever we say things or do things out of anger, we'll regret later on. -What Proverbs 29:11 says is that, "A fool vents all his feelings, but a wise man holds them back." -You know what? Whenever you're angry, you can ask yourself, Why am I angry? What do I really want? How can I get what I want? -Anger is never really the root problem in your life; its a symptom. 2. We'll have to release our anger properly. -We can exercise! Running helps you vent anger! -Admit that you're angry! -Read books! 3. We can renew our mind/mindset. -Lets change the way we think! -Put ourselves in the other persons' shoes. All anger is learned, so lets not be angry but, ask yourself those questions. &reflect. Lifes' a Roller Coaster! Life is like a roller coaster, at somepoints you're up. Some points you're down. The roads are bumpy. But we'll always have our friends and family with us. We'll its the journey not the destination, so why not enjoy yourself while you're on it! Scream! Have fun! Life sucks. Whenever someone says Life sucks, do you agree? We may think that we lead a truly hard life. Earning money, being a good student. And whenever we cant get what we want, in our way. We often say Life sucks. Why not look at those who are Unfortunate, sick, dying people, the needy. They go through everyday with a smile. With a never ending hope that tomorrow will be a better and a brand new day! They never stop giving up and never look down or pity themselves. If we say Life sucks, what about them? Dont you think that we should be ashamed of ourselves? Forever complaining, never satisfied with what we already have. Dreading tomorrow. We face tomorrow with no hope and not even with a smile. If the needy can, why cant we? Life's a roller Coaster, why not enjoy it while we can? Think about it.
