The eagle tests before it trusts.

Eagles mate for life, so when a female eagle meets a male and they want to mate, she flies down to earth with the male pursuing her and she picks a twig. She flies back into the air with the male still pursuing her. Once she has reached a height high enough for her, she lets the twig fall to the ground and watches it as it falls. The male chases after the twig. The faster it falls, the faster he chases until he reaches it and has to catch it before it falls to the ground, then bring it back to the female eagle. The female eagle grabs the twig and flies to a much higher altitude pursued by the male until she perceives it high enough, and then she drops the twig for the male to chase. This may go on for hours with the height increasing until the female eagle is assured that the male eagle has mastered the art of picking the twig, which shows commitment. Then and only then, will she allow him to mate with her!

Whether in private life or in business, one should test the commitment of people intended for partnership.

Whether it's owning a home, starting a business, or gaining respect, the journey begins with a single step. Don't get discouraged by the enormity of the goal ahead. Focus on taking that first step, then the next, and before you know it, you'll be well on your way to realizing your dreams. The key is to start, no matter how small, and stay persistent. Keep believing, and you'll see progress.

When a wolf realizes it is losing a fight against another and understands there is no chance of victory, it makes an unexpected decision: it peacefully offers its jugular to the opponent, as if saying, "I have lost, let's end this." But at that very moment, something astonishing happens.

The victorious wolf, instead of delivering the final blow, freezes. An ancient force holds it back—a silent, instinctive law. Something embedded in its DNA, or perhaps beyond it, whispers that the survival of the species is more important than the satisfaction of eliminating its rival.

What a magnificent natural mechanism: no cowardice in the one who surrenders, no mercy in the one who stops. Just a perfect balance. There is no winner or loser. Both wolves walk away, and the cycle of life continues.

This is what we call: HUMILITY.

Both mangoes are growing on the same branch of the same tree. One is already ripe, while the other still needs more time to mature.

Through these mangoes, nature teaches us an important lesson: just because others seem to succeed before us doesn’t mean we are failures. It simply means our time has not come yet.

Therefore, we must be patient, stay resilient, and not give in to frustration.

We might be just a short time away from reaching our own moment of success.

Remember, our time will come—it just takes patience, persistence, and faith.

NEVER, NEVER, EVER CUT A CHILD'S WINGS...

1. "My hands are small, and that's why I spill the milk even when I don’t want to."

2. "My legs are short. Please wait for me and walk slower so I can keep up with you."

3. "Don't hit my hands when I touch something colorful—I just want to learn."

4. "Please look at me when I'm talking to you so I know you're listening."

5. "My feelings are still tender. Please don’t scold me all day. Let me make mistakes without making me feel stupid."

6. "Don't expect the bed I make or the drawing I paint to be perfect. Love me for trying my best."

7. "Remember, I’m a child, not a small adult. Sometimes I don’t understand what you’re saying."

8. "I love you so much. Please love me for who I am, not just for what I do."

9. "Don't reject me when you're upset with me. If I come to give you a kiss, it’s because I feel alone, abandoned, and afraid."

10. "When you yell at me, I get scared. Please explain what I’ve done wrong."

11. "Don’t be angry when the night falls, and the dark feels scary. When I wake up and call you, your hug is the only thing that gives me peace."

12. "When we go to the store, don't let go of my hand. I feel like I’ll get lost and you’ll never find me."

13. "I feel really sad when you argue. Sometimes I think it’s my fault, and my stomach tightens because I don’t know what to do."

14. "I often see you hugging and caressing my brother. Do you love him more than me? Maybe because he’s cuter or smarter? But what about me... am I not your child too?"

15. "You scolded me harshly when I broke my favorite toy, and even more when I cried about it. I was already sad—I didn’t do it on purpose. Now I’ve lost it forever."

16. "You got upset because I got dirty while playing. But the feeling of mud on my feet was so wonderful, and the afternoon was so lovely. I wish I knew how to wash my clothes by myself."

17. "Today, you weren’t feeling well, and I got really worried. I tried to cheer you up with my games and stories. What would I do if something happened to you?"

18. "I’m scared of hell, and I don’t even know what it is... but I think it must be as terrible as being without you."

19. "Even though I had fun staying with my uncles, I missed you so much the whole week. I wish parents never had vacations away from their children."

20. "I’m so lucky! Out of all the children in the world, you chose me."

As adults, we often forget what it was like to be a child—what hurt us, what scared us, what made us feel loved. Sometimes, children say these things out loud; other times, they only think them silently.

The snake bit the hen, and with the poison burning in her body, she sought refuge in her henhouse.

But the other hens preferred to expel her so that the poison would not spread.

The hen limped away, crying in pain. Not because of the bite, but because of the abandonment and disdain of her own family at the time when she needed them most.

And so she left... burning with fever, dragging one of her legs, vulnerable to the cold nights.

With each step, a tear fell.

The hens in the henhouse watched her go away, watching her disappear on the horizon. Some said to each other:

— Let her go... She will die far from us.

And when the hen finally vanished into the immensity of the horizon, they were all sure that she had died.

Some even looked at the sky, hoping to see vultures flying.
Time passed.

Much later, a hummingbird came to the henhouse and announced:

— Your sister is alive! She lives in a cave far away from here.

She recovered, but lost a leg from the snake bite.
She has trouble finding food and needs your help.

There was silence. Then the excuses began:

— I can't go, I'm laying eggs...

— I can't go, I'm looking for corn...

— I can't go, I have to take care of my chicks...

So, one by one, they all rejected the request. The hummingbird returned to the cave without help.

Time passed again.

Much later, the hummingbird returned, but this time with painful news:

— Your sister has passed away... She died alone in the cave... There is no one to bury her or mourn her.

At that moment, a weight fell on everyone. A deep lament filled the henhouse.

Those who were laying eggs stopped.

Those who were looking for corn left the seeds behind.

Those who were caring for chicks forgot about them for a moment.

Regret hurt more than any poison. Why didn't we go before?, they asked themselves.

And without measuring the distance or the effort, they all set off for the cave, crying and lamenting. Now they had a reason to see her, but it was too late.

When they got to the cave, they didn't find the hen... They only found a letter that said:

"In life, many times people don't cross the street to help you when you're alive, but they cross the world to bury you when you die.

And most of the tears at funerals are not from pain, but from remorse and regret."

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you.

I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. I receive your Holy Spirit now by faith and help me obey You and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Also get baptized fully under water and get fellowship with other christians so you can grow stronger as a child of God.

yet we considered Him punished by God, stricken by Him, and afflicted. 5 But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed.

JESUS CHRIST WILL BE YOUR LIGHT

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

A man and his wife traveled to the zoo. They found a monkey that played passionately with his female. His wife told him: "what a romance."

Then they found a lion and his lioness separated from each other; the lion was silent and alone in his corner as if the lioness did not exist. His wife told him: "what a sad scene without love."

Her husband then told her: "throw that stone at the lioness and watch." When she threw it down, the lion leaped roaring to defend his lioness. They saw the monkeys again and she did the same by throwing a stone; the monkey then jumped and abandoned his female to save his hide.

Her husband tells her later: "do not be fooled by what you see as romanticism in some, many times it is a deceptive appearance that hides an empty heart; there are others on the contrary who do not show anything, but their hearts are full of sincere love ". Unfortunately today we have so many monkeys and so few lions."

41 RULES TO STAY AHEAD OF THE GAME

1. **Privacy is your superpower.** What others don’t know, they can’t ruin. Keep your life close to the chest—people thrive on drama.

2. **Loneliness is part of the journey.** Embrace it; it’s an art form all its own.

3. **Remember, everything is temporary.** Life is fleeting, so stay grounded and humble.

4. **Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.** Be kind; it costs nothing.

5. **Your partner mirrors you.** Choose wisely. Seek out her values just as diligently as her looks.

6. **Your mental health trumps everyone’s feelings.** Be a little selfish here; it’s vital.

7. **You don’t need more time; you need fewer distractions.** Focus is your key to success.

8. **Guard your time fiercely.** Not everyone deserves a piece of it.

9. **Surround yourself with those who truly value you.** You shouldn't have to plead for respect and appreciation.

10. **Self-love is not selfish; it’s necessary.**

11. **Treasure those who lighten your load.** They are rare gems in this world.

12. **Choose your circle with care.** The right people uplift you; the wrong ones can drag you down.

13. **Peace of mind is invaluable.** Protect it at all costs.

14. **Stop chasing love; simply live your life.** The right person will come along.

15. **Seek those who embody that “grow together” mindset.** Lift each other higher.

16. **No regrets—just lessons learned.** Dust yourself off and push forward.

17. **Pursue someone proud to have you by their side.**

18. **Never surrender.** Everyone faces tough times; pick yourself up and keep going.

19. **If you feel drained, take a step back to recharge—don’t quit.**

20. **Sometimes, you need to disappear to return stronger.**

21. **Learn from the successes of others, but let their mistakes teach you wisdom.**

22. **Want to be happy?** Stop expecting anything from anyone; nobody owes you a thing.

23. **Everything will fall into place eventually.** Keep that optimistic mindset alive.

24. **Keep grinding—your breakthrough is on the horizon.**

25. **There’s nothing more attractive than mutual effort.**

26. **Stop overthinking it in places where you’re not valued.**

27. **If no one lends a hand, take the initiative yourself. Complaining won't help.**

28. **Obsess over your growth.** It’s the best investment you can make.

29. **A heart-to-heart should never end in conflict.** Open dialogue is sacred.

30. **“I’ll do it tomorrow” is just procrastination in disguise.**

31. **Aim not to stay the same—strive to be better.**

32. **Sometimes, waiting is more powerful than forcing things to happen.**

33. **Not everyone will understand your journey, and that’s perfectly fine.**

34. **Heal so you don’t become a reflection of your past trauma.**

35. **Keep your circle small and your friends insightful.**

36. **If they’re only around temporarily, feel free to let them go permanently.**

37. **People come and go; learn how to stand strong alone.**

38. **If needed, take time to disappear and focus on yourself.**

39. **Some will resent you for refusing to be controlled.** That’s their problem.

40. **Concentrate on your improvement, not on proving yourself to others.**

41. **Never, ever return to what once broke you.**

**Keep pushing forward!**
