The True Meaning Of Friendship

WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF FRIENDSHIP? HOW CAN WE BE A TRUE FRIEND?


THROUGH THE DESERT .

DURING SOME POINT OF THE JOURNEY,

THEY HAD AN ARGUMENT;

AND ONE FRIEND SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE IN THE FACE

THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED WAS HURT,

BUT WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING,

WROTE IN THE SAND , TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME

IN THE FACE .. THEY KEPT ON WALKING,

UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,

WHERE THEY DECIDED TO TAKE A BATH .

THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE MIRE

AND STARTED DROWNING, BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.

AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM THE NEAR DROWNING,

HE WROTE ON A STONE: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE"

THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND

ASKED HIM, "AFTER I HURT YOU, YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,

YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?" THE FRIEND REPLIED

"WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN IN SAND,

WHERE WINDS OF FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY. BUT,

WHEN SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,

WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE WHERE NO WIND CAN

EVER ERASE IT" LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND

AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.

THEY SAY IT TAKES A MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL PERSON,

AN HOUR TO APPRECIATE THEM, A DAY TO LOVE THEM,

BUT THEN , AN ENTIRE LIFE TO FORGET THEM.

TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE! DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS

YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE!

AND IF I HAPPEN TO GET IT BACK,

THEN I KNOW MY PLACE IN YOUR LIFE.

"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

How To Overcome Bad Habits

I read this to one of my favorite book and I want it to share with you. It is from West Lynn High School Seminary in West Lynn, Oregon

1. Choose just one behavior you would like to change & work on that first. It can be overwhelming to try to be perfect all at once.

2. Substitute something wholesome, positive & enjoyable for the bad habits. its easier to slide back into old habits if we don’t have something new to replace them.

3. Quit your bad habit for the right reason. Love of God & a desire to do what is right are more motivational & lasting that fear of duty or anything else.

4. Ask family members & friends to help keep you in line & to support you when you are trying to make the right choices.

5. Do your best to kick your habit & pray for help to make it the rest of the way. Gain extra spiritual strength through fasting.

6. Write your goals down, step by step. & read them regularly as a reminder of what you want to accomplish & why.

7. Stay far away from tempting situations.

8. Believe in Yourself. Remember, as you sincerely do what is right, Heavenly Father will give you the strength you need to overcome your bad habits.

9. Work. Work. Work a Habit — Good or Bad — is something we have practiced over & over until it becomes second nature. It will take work to overcome the bad habits we have been practicing.

10. Overcoming some habits requires professional help. Seek the help if necessary.

11. Remember that habits are hard to break. Heavenly Father loves us despite our mistakes. He will give up on you, so don’t give up on yourself if you falter. Keep trying!

12. Set up a reward system for yourself to encourage you to stay on track.

13. If you just need to forget yourself & stop obsessing about giving up on a bad habit, try serving someone else.

14. Turn to your bishop & your family for more ideas on conquering a bad habit.

INSTALLING LOVE

***While I was reading the bulletin posted by my friend, I was so impressed and made me realized that love is all about forgiveness. In life, we always search for answers because we want to prove ourselves that we made the right choice, but the truth is we cannot search for what is missing. Things happen because it is meant to be. That’s why we forgive people even if they hurt us, we love people who don’t love us and we smile despite of painful heartaches. At the end of the day, the answers that we've been looking for is the consequence of our decision.

Tech Support: Yes, …. how can I help you?
Customer: Well, after much consideration, I’ve decided to install Love. Can you guide me through the process?
Tech Support: Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?
Customer: Well, I’m not very technical, but I think I’m ready. What do I do first?
Tech Support: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located your Heart?
Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it okay to install Love while they are running?
Tech Support: What programs are running ?
Customer: Let’s see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge and Resentment running right now.
Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed. Can you turn those off ?
Customer: I don’t know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?
Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.
Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that normal?
Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.
Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, “Error - Program not run on external components.” What should I do?
Tech Support: Don’t worry. It means that the Love program is set up to run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others.
Customer: So, what should I do?
Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the following files: Forgive-Self; Realize Your Worth; and Acknowledge your Limitations.
Customer: Okay, done.
Tech Support: Now, copy them to the “My Heart” directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.
Customer: Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves all over My Heart. Is this normal?
Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but eventually everything gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed and running. One more thing before we hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.
Customer: Thank you, God.

My Teaching Experience

I have just started teaching Koreans online recently. I'm just new in this kind of profession but I realize that teaching is not an easy job, but it is an overwhelming profession. Teaching is part of my life. I currently teach in Primary, Sunday School and Seminary class in our church.
It's a great experience to teach english! My experience in teaching taught me to be patient and to be responsible. I am able to know the Koreans better and share the knowledge that I have. What's more amazing is that I am learning too! I am able to know their cultures and traditions.
I never imagine that teaching would be fun. My passion is to teach and my challenge is to see my students improve their English language.

I know that Koreans knows a little English but they don't know how to use it properly and accurately. A lot of Koreans think that learning English as a second language is hard, but actually it is not. It's a lot easier than they think. They don't have to travel just to study English because now we have Online Teaching and we, Filipino Tutors are here to help and guide them to use English properly.
Learning English is fun and at the same time important. It is the so-called "universal language". Universal because all nations have their own language and for us to be able to communicate with one another, we should only use one language in expressing one's thoughts and ideas so that we can understand each other well. That's how important English is in our lives.
I salute the Filipino people like me who has the initiative and perseverance to do this kind of job.

I am very honor to be one of them.

Good job my fellow online English Teachers!!! You can visit me at http://www.ontue.com/.... Vote for me, ces27! Tnx and Have a great day! :)
