An Oath for a Better You


Today
I, (state your name), promise

To smile more than I frown
To laugh more than I weep
To celebrate more than I grieve
To delight more than I dislike

I promise
To admire rather than criticize
To bring joy rather than pain
To make peace rather than fight
To love rather than hate


I promise
To appreciate before I complain
To think before I speak
To listen before I accuse
To withstand before I give up

I promise
To always be kind
To always be humble
To always be selfless
To always be patient
To always be grateful

I will be responsible
To become a Better Person
With the best of my knowledge
Through the utmost of my abilities
Please help me God.

When we worry, it lessens our TRUST in God and we question His ability to keep what He says. And then we try to solve our problems on our own. We are leaning on our own understanding. We do what we think will be the solution. And the result will always be worse. Do not worry and trust God. Do not feel insecure because even though sometimes we don't see and feel God's actions in our problems, knowing that the Lord is with us is already the highest security we can have. He'll do something, just obey, wait and see.

Boredom

It's something you do when you're bored. Plus I believe, a girl can never be completely beautiful when she doesn't know how to be ugly. Hurray!
