The Power Of A True Friend

‘A true friend is forever a friend.’- George MacDonald

If you can’t find a true friend, then be a true friend to someone else.

We need other great, positive people in our lives. We need people who are going to be there for us when the going is no longer in view.

We need other people to lift us up when we are down, when we are not ourselves.

We need other people to be with us, but do not wait. Do not wait for others to be your friend. If you cannot be your own best friend, you are in trouble.

If you want to live a meaningful life, start by being comfortable with yourself. If you are comfortable with yourself, you can bring other comfortable people into your life. To put it another way, you won’t have any problem attracting other great people into your life.

No one can make you feel really comfortable with your inner self, with your real self.

Be your own best friend. You can make it happen. How? You start by loving yourself. By treating other people with respect.

People want respect. People want to be around other people who treat them with respect, with love, with dignity, with compassion.

And they want to stay away from people who do not respect them, who are self-centered, who are after other people for themselves, who are not happy, who don’t know what they want, and who are not going anywhere in life.

If you are having trouble finding your best friend, do not worry. It takes time to know people. It takes time to know who we are. And it takes time to know the world around us.

Do not worry about it. There is nothing wrong with you. When the time comes, you will meet your best friend. But before you meet your best, you can be your own best friend. How about that?

Remember, you are your own best friend. Why not celebrate yourself?

How To Live A Positive Life

You can live a positive life. Because it is not about material things. It is not about college degrees. It is not about where you live, or what you do for a living. It is not. It is more than that.
A positive life doesn't mean a problem-free life. People living positive lives have problems, but they deal with their problems better than the rest of us. They know what to worry about. They also know what not to worry about. They worry less, but focus more. 
When it comes to living a positive life, it is all about living in the moment. It is all about finding love in what you are doing. It is all about finding love in the little things. It is all about enjoying what you have. It is all about focusing on what you have, not on what you do not have. It is all about turning problems into opportunities. It is all about using what you have to get what you do not have. It is all about keeping a positive outlook in the face of problems. 
When you are down, when you are not happy, instead of beating yourself up, try to think of things that make you feel good about yourself. They are out there. But to attact positive things into your life, you must think positive thoughts.
