Don't lose yourself trying to please everyone, in the end you'll only lose everyone else when you realize you need to find yourself. May your individuality be your strength. It's a slippery slope when you play the people pleasing game. Sometimes you have to do what's right for you, and you alone.  

We give because someone gave to us.

We give because nobody gave to us.

We give because giving has changed us.

We give because giving could have changed us.

We have been better for it,

We have been wounded by it—

Giving has many faces: It is loud and quiet,

Big, though small, diamond in wood-nails.

Its story is old, the plot worn and the pages too,

But we read this book, anyway, over and again:

Giving is, first and every time, hand to hand,

Mine to yours, yours to mine.

You gave me blue and I gave you yellow.

Together we are simple green. You gave me

What you did not have, and I gave you

What I had to give—together, we made

Something greater from the difference.

~Alberto Ruis

I thank God for securing my job, I ask that you pray that the good lord blesses me with wisdom and a Good wife also for protection against spiritual attacks from the enemy, protection for my family members. And also that God grants me favor in all spears of my life. Goodness and mercy to shall follow me all the days of my life.

~Sampson I.
