A Motivational Story 1 - The Power of Appreciation
7:09 PM | 
Posted by Admin 
A member of one of our classes told of a request made by his wife. She and a group of other women in her house of prayer were involved in a self-improvement program.
She asked her husband to help her by listing six things he believed she could do to help her become a better wife. He reported to the class: “I was surprised by such a request. Frankly, it would have been easy for me to list six things I would like to change about her - my heavens, she could have listed a thousand things she would like to change about me - but I didn’t. I said to her, ‘Let me think about it and give you an answer in the morning.’
“The next morning I got up very early and called the florist and had them send six red roses to my wife with a note saying: ‘I can’t think of six things I would like to change about you. I love you just the way you are.’
“When I arrived at home that evening, who do you think greeted me at the door: That’s right. My wife! She was almost in tears. Needless to say, I was extremely glad I had not criticized her as she had requested.
“The following Sunday at house of prayer, after she had reported the results of her assignment, several women with whom she had been studying came up to me and said, ‘That was the most considerate thing I have ever heard.’ It was then I realized the power of appreciation.”

The advantage about the funny pictures is that you can watch them along with the
family. Every day many new websites are coming on the internet,
which can be used for all sort of access to stuff that
can make you smile. While almost every cat is a work of aesthetic beauty,
they are often animals that combine silliness and a fierce disposition.

proud to call news, and if it ever goes completely out of style, may the Lord help us, for it will be the end of civilization as we know it.

Instead of eating to make yourself feel better find other methods to
cope. It is important that you realise that if you do
miss one of your exercise sessions it is not the end of the world.
Another item to consider is to buy resistance bands,
which help with stretching and yoga.
