TO: You DATE: Today

FROM: A Friend
SUBJECT: YOURSELF
REFERENCE: LIFE

· If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved, but in MY time, not yours.
· Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.
· If you find yourself stuck in traffic, don’t despair… there are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
· Should you have a bad day at work… Think of the person who has been out of work for years.
· Should you grieve the passing of another weekend… think of the person in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.
· Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance… think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
· Should you notice a grey hair in the mirror… think of the cancer patients in chemo who wish they had hair to examine.
· Should you find yourself the victim of other people’s bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities… remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them!
