WHAT'S THIS?

 Time flies. When I started posting here, I wrote random thoughts for the sake of writing, but as time passed, they were more thoughts that came about when I saw my heart growing weary and I set to think of something nice to keep me positive each day. How weary this world makes you as life progresses... but life really isn't about the situations that come up in life, but how each situation is tailored positively into life. No matter how much I want to, I can't say I'm exactly who I want to be yet or never will be because God is reavealing more and more of my weaknesses to me each day, but with each weakness revealed, God's grace makes it's appearance like clockwork everytime. Perhaps perfection is supposed to be out of reach to keep us humble in God's sight. A saving grace... And as grace shows up day after day, I realize God's steadfast faithfulness and the depth of his love for me.  Perhaps this a good place to stop writing after these few years as "yoodchang". I'm not sure why today, but I just dont' feel like writing anymore., but that's ok. All things don't have to come with a reason...

People are often unreasonable, illogical, selfish; Forgive them anyway
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; succeed anyway
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; build anyway
If you find sincerity and happiness, they may be jealous; be sincere and happy anyway
The good you do today people often forget tomorrow; be good anyway
Give the world the best you have and may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway
You see in the final analysis, it is between you and God, It was never between you and them anyway

-Mother Teresa

The fox gazed at the little prince, for a long time.

"Please-- tame me!" he said.

"I want to, very much," the little prince replied. "But I have not much time. I have friends to discover, and a great many things to understand."

"One only understands the things that one tames," said the fox. "Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me..."

"What must I do, to tame you?" asked the little prince.

"You must be very patient," replied the fox. "First you will sit down at a little distance from me-- like that-- in the grass. I shall look at you out of the corner of my eye, and you will say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings. But you will sit a little closer to me, every day..."
