What goes around comes around
Walking in the streets of a big city, you find a mother pushing a big bulky and stuffed stroller, a limping man, a homeless person, and many other healthy and fast walking individuals.
The woman with the stroller goes inside a coffee shop on the side of the long and wide street, trying to escape the heavy rain outside, and reaching for some adrenaline kick that can help her survive the rest of the day. She pushes and she jams, but no one inside the coffee shop helps her pass through, although all the sitters seem physically capable, are in no hurry and are very much enjoying their coffee. Instead of offering help, by pulling their chairs away from her way, they look down on her with a degrading look, as if she was not worthy of that coffee she was ordering, the same coffee they were enjoying on their tables.
Outside on the streets, the limping man is struggling to get to work, which - on an ordinary day – is only a 2-minute walk from where he lives. His foot got twisted while he was running the other day, so he had to wear an ankle brace to help him go around for the coming 4 weeks. Walking under the rain, he steps in water puddles, in the corner between the pavement and the street, which makes it uncomfortable for him to have a wet foot and a wet ankle brace, but he moves on anyway. Both hands busy, he was carrying a business suitcase and some plan rolls. Entering the building where he works, is not an easy task. With a limp and two busy hands, he struggles to keep the door open and enter. A man having breakfast at the cafe next to that door was watching him struggle with total emotional detachment, as he finished his breakfast. and he did not get up to open the door for that limping man.
Finally, the homeless already familiar with the crowd’s non-stop streaming flow, he stands at the side of the road, and repeats: “God is good. God is great. God is making no mistakes.” Still, no one gives him attention. He just sings to stay alive, because if he stops believing in what he sings, he will die.
It is certainly worth wondering why has the crowd lost their sense of chivalry? Is it because they are in a hurry, or because no one had helped them when they had really needed help in the past?
If that’s so, then maybe what goes around, comes around, and these willingly unhelpful people may end up needing help someday and not have it, because other people maybe in a hurry too.
We believe that there is nothing better than helping one another, because when you do, you are most likely to receive help when you most need it. Finally, I would like to conclude with what Ellen ends her show regularly: “Be kind to one another”.
What Is Standing In Your Way?
Most of us have dreams, and we really want them to happen. Yet, between our dreams and our desired results lies something that keeps us from getting to where we want. Do you what it is? Can you name it? If you’re to visualize it as a thing, what would it be?
One of the greatest minds in the twentieth century, Mr. Napoleon Hill, author of the well-known book Think and Grow Rich. Click here to read some of his remarkable quotes.

Where Do You Find Your Peace?
When we think of Holidays, we tend to think of beaches, exotic countries, swimming pools, sea side, etc. We may constantly link the concept of ‘relief and relaxation with a location that is ‘out there’. In addition to that, we may link ‘relief and comfort’ with objects (like food, clothes etc.) or activities (playing volleyball, suntanning, hanging out with friends, etc). Yet, we may never stop to notice that our key source of peace lies within ourselves, and it’s accessible at any time, provided you are really attuned to it.
If we’re in a stressful situation, instead of heading off for a cigarette or the fridge, we may want to take some ‘Time Out’ with ourselves, where we could truly access our true self, see what it is really telling us regarding the matter, and understanding our emotions.
Some people I have met in my life don’t even know what their own self is about. They never pay attention to it in their daily lives. They had never learned to access it or listen to it. Other people consider ‘feelings or emotions’ a weakness so they have learned to disregard them when making decisions.
But what if I told you that the answer to most of your life queries lied in you? What if you were able to know what you really want and have the abilities to access it?
Have you seen the movie “Journey to the Center of the Earth”? Most movies we are used to journey a planet outside of Earth, Armaggedon, Apolo 13, etc. What if I can take you on a Holiday to the Center of Yourself? I wonder how that would look. Don’t you?
We’ll be guided by your own inner compass in this journey, so sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. So many things will start making sense to you, as we go along. Just after you get there, you’ll get back to your daily life a completely changed person, whose life is one that is 100% worth living to the max.
We believe that Wisdom is Within You, and you hold the answers to your own life’s mysteries.
If you want to be on board of the most exciting adventure of your life, make sure to contact us, and we will start the preparations!
