TREES

I am not doing so well with posting every other day… The past month has been really busy for me, which is a good thing I guess.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to see Tyler Perry, and he said something that stuck with me. I guess you have to listen to a person who has struggled from being homeless to the point where he makes over a million dollars in a weekend, but putting on a dress and playing a character… Go figure!!!!!

Anyway, Tyler said look at your self as a TREE… You have friends that are like leaves. They are there hanging with you, and holding on during the sunny days, but let a hard breeze or storm come along and their gone in the wind.

Other friends are like branches. They grow with you, and help you become bigger and stronger. From time to time you have to trim them and let them grow on their own. Sometimes branches even try to out grow the tree they are attached to.

Lastly, some people are your roots… You don’t really see them but they are there holding you down. Keeping you grounded, and helping you keep a firm grip of life.
The roots are sometimes hard to find but they are always there.


You only fail when you give up……..
