Finding your wings

by Ernie Doc

Have you ever walked around doing things to please people so that they have nothing bad to say about you. Well that is how I feel at times, then I realize that the people who say things about me are the people who everyday get up and do things that you would not have liked. People around me are making strides doing things that other people would not exactly be pleased about. They are getting ahead while I am sitting down and trying to make everyone happy.

I have however learned that when a person lacks certain skills or isn't able to see things from your point of view, they tell you that the task you are undertaking cannot be done. I know myself and my capabilities so really I am the ultimate authority, I can reach that goal that has been holding my thoughts for years. Everyone sees things from a unique position. Sometimes I just have to sit and really try to understand what is going on around, because it is this understanding that will determine how I make my decisions.

People will always say things, one has to be wise and take from people what is important to their personal development. People can say bad things to you but depending on how you look at it you can learn a great deal.

Do your best and people will see the best in you, accept it, and be inspired by it. However do not be enslaved by your detractors.

I have always been random in what I do but in whatever I do I always try my best.

I wish you be strong despite the challenges of life, remember your family and the people around you.
