The Butterfly Effect


So often, we neglect the little things we ought to do thinking that it won't make a difference in the life of other people. It could be in the form of:
  • Saying Thank You upon receiving a favor.
  • Disposing your thrash or waste properly.
  • Cutting the trees without planting something in return.
  • Offering a seat to elderly people.
  • Eating healthy foods upon each meals.
  • Buying small gift to your wife or family.
  • Encouraging problematic individuals.
  • Visiting sick people.
  • A word of kindness to everyone.
  • Appreciation
  • And there still a lot more...
It maybe seemingly insignificant for you, but it has an awesome repercussion to anyone who might be on the line. What I'm trying to say is, those little things we often neglect matters not just for us but for those people who surrounded us. We might not notice it, but somehow these little things we faithfully do may give meaning to those people whom we might not have known ever since. So be mindful of the little things! Even the things you've thought to be so insignificant can be very significant to the people on the other side of the world. As they say, LITTLE THINGS can be likened to a flapping butterfly wings. So tiny and insignificant yet it can whip a storm for someone who gives meaning to it! That's what you call, the BUTTERFLY EFFECT!


Have a Great Day!

Lessons From Our Own Mistakes

 
I had a great time last night when we had our lighthouse prayer fellowship! We were having fun as we tackle about the topic "MISTAKES". We were laughing at our own personal experience of committing errors, even just in simple ways, as we share to the group. It's a mere proof that we are just normal humans. Born to make mistakes! As we were pondering upon it, there are certain representations or lessons we get once we commit mistakes and these are the following:

Let me start with letter:

M - Messages we get out from our committed faults and errors.

I - Interruptions that causes us to reflect and evaluate the appropriateness of our actions.

S - Sign post that directs us to the right path.

T - Test that will push us towards growth or maturity.

A - Awakening that restores our right mentality.

K - Keys that we can use to unlock the next door of opportunity.

E - Exploration that leads us to a journey where we've never been before.

S - Statements of our developmental progress.

Sometimes, our mistakes are the ones that causes us to be GREAT by learning the lessons we get behind it. So don't be afraid to commit one! Just don't make a habit of making one. Cause as humans, we ought to commit mistakes. The good thing there is, "We become better people when we learn the lessons we get from our own MISTAKES!"


 
God Bless You and Have A Great Day!!!
