Friends

How to choose them wisely.There are those who you go to when you need to pour out your troubles and know that they will understand and give a shoulder to lean on,those who you will turn to if ever you need a good time out and will make you laugh,those who you can turn to and they will sort you out financially,those who you can go to for intelligent advice and there are those who are just friends by default,either both your mothers are in the same choir or they were classmates in high school or neighbors who you just cant ignore.
These friends don't necessarily bring any value to your life just like those facebook friends you accept since you both have friends in common and are sure they will fill up your wall.
The friends you have say a lot about you so its good to associate yourself with people who will bring out the good in you to others.

Do Good Today

Be a heart that gives.Wealth is not measured just by what you have but also by what you give.Approach life more differently.Doesn't there come a point in each of our lives when we start to judge our worth not just by the material wealth we have gathered,but also by what we have put back?Not just by the numbers in our bank accounts by the number of times we have acted expecting nothing in return.There is a real satisfaction in doing good.

How is your self esteem?

How do we think of ourselves?Do we just see ourselves as good for nothings or people who can achieve anything we put our mind to and get past any obstacle?Heractitus said,"The road uphill and the road downhill are one and the same."Have you ever wondered how it is that some people seem to excel with little effort?They glide graciously through life achieving extraordinary results while others toil away but have few achievements to show for all their efforts.Peak performers in all walks of life show that they have similar ways of thinking about themselves and others.
High self esteem helps us think positively,mainly the work of the subconscious.The ki9nds of thoughts whether positive or negative that we feed our subconscious become reality as it follows these instructions.Hence its gravely important that we choose our thoughts wisely-if you think like a failure you are sure as likely to become one.High self esteem is reflected in our body language,you look more confident and in control.Low self esteem is fueled by fear,we fear what others will think,what they will do so we stop ourselves from doing something just because we don,t have the guts which people with high self esteem have plenty of.
Decide that fear has no place in your mind,have the guts to do what you want and you will be in charge and you will accomplish more than you can fathom.And I ask my favorite question,after all,what do you have to loose?

'WHOONGA'

Have you heard of the new narcotic that people in Durban are smoking  called 'Whoonga'.This powder is made of laundry detergent,rat poison,and according to a pervasive urban legend,anti retrovirals (ARVs).Users sprinkle it over mariguana and smoke it.Thats just disturbing.The users use kids to steal ARVs an ingredient of the whoonga in South Africa which has the highest HIV positive population with 5.7 million of its 48 million people infected.For many the theft of their medicine seems like a death sentence,though some of them sell it to drug dealers at a profit.What is the world coming to?
