Refuse To Be A Victim

Being in the victim role is a choice. However most do not even realize they are making this choice. It is what they have been taught or more so what they have not been taught. Yes life happens, it happens every second of everyday, and sometimes it doesn’t happen the whey we would like. Sometimes it just seems like life is passing us by or just plain crapping on us. And you know what some days it just does that’s life.

Every day one of us misses the lottery by one number, are lied to by someone we trusted, have an accident, lose a job and so on. Don’t just sit there and whine and snivel about it, and hide away. That’s not going to do any good. Yes there is nothing wrong with venting however at some point the venting has to turn to solutions, what are you going to do about it, how are you going to change thing to make it better, what was your part in it. Life is just that life; it is constantly filled with ups and downs. However most of the downs are really not downs at all it is just your perception as well as a little pity pot that things didn’t go your way. Usually the so called downs in life are one of two things they are usually blessings in disguise or they are life lessons, building blocks or steeping stones for a better tomorrow. However it is up to you to see the silver lining or how you can take this “down” and use the opportunity it presents, and look for the life lesson contained within. You can life do you or you can do life.


There was an old farmer and his son whose horse ran away one day
The neighbours said it was bad luck, but then the horse returned with three wild horses following This the neighbours said was good luck, until the son, trying to break one of the wild horses, Fell off and broke his leg. Bad luck it turned out – except that not long after the accident the army swept through the valley, taking all the able bodied young men off to war, the son, of course was spared due to the broken leg. Within every adversity lies a gift.


One cold and wet fall day, as hundreds of birds took to migration routes for the winter, there happened to be a certain bluebird who decided that he wasn’t going with the “crowd” it was just a big waste of time and effort. After all I’ll just have to fly all the way back again come spring. Not long after a record cold spell hit the area, and our little friend realized that he would have to leave. He took to the air, however it wasn’t long before the icy air was too much. His little wing became encrusted with ice and he fell from the sky, as luck would have it, he hit a haystack and rolled to the ground. Near death and just about to freeze to death one of the cows happened by and relieved himself on our friend. The warmth of the cows waste had a thawing effect on the little guy. Happy to be alive our little friend began to sing. However this attracted one of the farms cats, who came to investigate, pawed through the manure found our little friend and promptly ate him. Thus teaching us two things –Not everyone who dumps on us is our enemy and two—not everyone who gets us out of a mess is a friend.
