Quote: A true friend.
"A true friend never gets in the way unless you happen to be going down."
By, Arnold H. Glasgow
Giving advice is often popular and sometimes offered too freely. When someone asks for advice, consider the wise approach of always being cautious. The advice of others when asked is not necessarily what someone really wants.
Perhaps it is just an opportunity to voice the issue, ponder it, work through it and then to hear options that might resonate. But a true friend believes and has faith in the capabilities of their friend; enough so that advice usually need not be given.
As human beings we seem to need to go through experiences for the purpose of a higher learning regardless of friendship input. It is only in dire circumstances when one sees a friend's general well-being become threatened that a genuine friend will step in to protect, defend or rescue from a disastrous outcome. Being a wise friend, one knows "what" and "when" to say something and when it's best to say nothing.
That's the true mark of a true friend. Consider honing your friendship skills with a loved one. Recognizing and reacting lovingly when a friend is going down may test the endurance of a friendship and it may also save a life. Consider praying for Godly wisdom regularly. Allow Him to guide you so that "His Will" will be done and not yours or the will of someone else.

Quotes: Be Thankful.
"I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder."
Gilbert K. Chesterton - British writer (1874-1936)
Welcome and invite a sense of wonder in your life. Put on new lenses. Avoid judgements. Banish complaints. Decide ahead if time that when things go wrong you'll give yourself the chance to respond with openness and flexibility. Perhaps you will find novelty and enrichment where you least expect it. Then be thankful. There is power in seeing novelty in the world around you. How amazing it is to see a tiny ant carrying a treasure many times it's size and weight. Wonder strikes our imagination and sense of awe at such sights. Nature is abundant with examples. Many people react warmly to openness and acceptance and often kindness results. Gratitude grips us in our heart when we embrace the beauty in the world around us. Perhaps you'll have a chance to respond with openness and flexibility today and just maybe you will know happiness doubled by wonder. Begin with new eyes and be amazed
