Good Friends

I posted this on the Arkansas Chat page but I wanted to share something I've learned in life with my friends of this group.

As I mature and Wisdom starts to unwind the knowlege of lifes lessons, I have come to realize that there are several important things we must find in life to find happiness.

One is peace of mind: We must first of all shed any burdens we carry by forgiving those who have used us in any way. It's not an easy task, but it has to be done. Once we forgive them, we no longer carry the burden of what they've done. Be satisfied with what you have and forgive yourself for the things you didn't accomplish in life. It's ok! Your ok!

We have to find that the Holy Spirit is indeed alive and that He lives inside us as a guide and a judge. He's there not to make us stumble, but to pick us up when we do. He's there to help us understand how important the gift of life really is and without peace of mind we can't see it.

The final lesson life teaches is Love for each other. It's easy to love someone who is always nice but to love those that are hateful to you is the accomplishment that will bring total peace of mind.

Try to make youself a better person inside, not so others will see it, but so you'll know. Experence the things of nature and walk where you'll have solutude. Sit on a rock or by a stream and think of the things you do have and be thankful.

A good friend will be someone who's walking down the same path trying to do the same things. This type of person in a way is like the Spirit inside you. They will be there if you stumble. They'll feel pain when you cry. And should you pass on before them, They'll never let your memorie die....Love each other

Bluesman,
I've said it before and I have to repeat myself.... a lot of what you're saying is already written in the Bible. As I'm reading your writings, the bible book you sound like comes to mind. Your posts have just put it in a way that most people will understand and respond to.

I think you should give this post another title and blog it so that many more people can be reached by the words of wisdom you've shared here.

Good post.
