Have faith in Yourself - Have faith in the future
When things are feeling really bad, when there seems like no way out, when you think you've tried everything & nothing works, remember you don't have to do this on your own....friends lift us up, they give us pearls of wisdom, they make us laugh, they make us cry, they share our lives, our troubles & our problems & sometimes......just sometimes......they give us hope, they have faith in us when we lose faith in ourselves, they give us perspective & then they make us laugh again. All our emotions are good - even the ones that feel bad. Things never stay the same - they are forever changing & with change comes progress & new life.
Have faith in Yourself - Have faith in the future

Last night I saw a documentary about a restaurant called The Clink, set right in the middle of a prison & run by one amazing man - a chef/prison warden - the inmates worked in the kitchen cooking up michelin style cuisijne & it was a popular job for them. It gave them purpose, but much, much more than that....it gave them hope & a vision for their own future. These people had done terrible things & yet within them was the will to change, to succeed......& I watched while these people changed in front of my eyes.....because of one thing.....FAITH. They were finally being treated like human beings, being valued, congratulated, trusted.....& they could finally see where they were going, & that someone believed in them. One young guy went from nothing, no qualifications, no prospects to being offered a 19k job in a michelin restaurant on his release!
There is good in everyone....when you choose to see it Play the Cards You Were Dealt? Well, that’s the cards you were dealt, son, they say And you know; they lie to your face. They don’t even know, that they don’t know That the world doesn’t work that way. For you’re never stuck with a hand in this game Unless you ‘think’ that you are, And if you want things different, instead of the same, Then you’ll have to raise your bar… It’s ‘not’ the cards you were dealt in life; For you pick each one by name. And if you still don‘t like the hand that you made, You always can change the game. When it’s getting late, and time to cash in, You’ll find with a peaceful ‘grin’ That you never could have lost the game, You only always win!!! That’s life!!! Kevin Gregory Uhrich |
