Think of times when someone or a group of people have miss-judged you. They drew their own conclusions to the truth. Was it painful and frustrating?

You are in a unique position to do something different. Why? Because you know what it is like and you didn't like it.

When you are dealing with someone that seems to deserve your judgment, don't do it. Most often, they are already being kicked when they are down. Will it hurt you to stand up for that person? Maybe others won't understand or they might ridicule you. What about the person you defend? You will be the only light in their current dark world. They will feel some love in a less than loving situation. Their heart will be uplifted.

Instead of joining the crowd of others that are kicking and punching with their words, do something different. Make a difference! You should do it without reward, but you may find yourself rewarded just because you did.

An example from my experience:

For years, I have working providing free dental services to people. Sometimes I would hear volunteer professionals (and others) talk about how pathetic patients were. After all, why didn't they just brush and floss? Any opportunity I got, I had to put in my two cents. It went like this: "If they grew up with their basic needs being met and their daddy was a dentist, maybe they would have known what was needed."

After years of being very angry that some people would assume the patients were slack or on drugs, I came to my own realization. All of that time, I defended the patients as not knowing better. The truth is that the others were ignorant and I shouldn't judge them either. They knew their worlds and not much more. How could they understand the plight of a person that struggled to find something to eat and was exhausted at that end? How could they understand how someone might not know certain things that were 'common sense' to them? They, themselves were unaware.

The bottom line- No one is in a position to judge anyone else. You have not walked in the other's shoes, so you will never understand.

My two cents,

There are so many convincing circumstances, and critics, that tell me that I am worthless.

I can't find a job, I can't get certain things just right, I don't fit the model types on tv or in my magazine.  I'm not the most intelligent, or the most talented in any one certain thing.  I am beautiful in my own genuine way, set apart from anyone else, my beauty comes from my heart.  I Have a mind that thinks outside the box regularly, and yet, I can be logical, or poetic.  I am my own toughest critic, and worst enemy.  I can be innovative in my thinking, so innovative, that it's impossible, because of the world we live in.  But then again, nothing is ever impossible.  Hurricanes, earthquakes, and turmoil around us happen all the time, and yet, every once in a while survivors happen.  But what about those who are lost, what can we do?

PRAY, and TRUST IN GOD!

Because HE ALONE sees all and can be where no one or thing else can be.

And our only link to Him Is Jesus Christ, Son Of God.

So many can debate the name, or what ever else they choose to debate over.

Fact is, We are given Locked doors, and keys, not just because of mans invention, but God gave us this very insight to let us know, His door is Locked to us, unless we come to Jesus, The Key to Our Salvation and Hope.  For this reason, I am going to learn the Hebrew language, to open my heart and mind to the language of His People.  And to Open my heart, mind and soul, to HIS UNDERSTANDING, which is too much for any one of us to handle.

But as I do with all tough projects, I take it, one step, one day, one tough lesson after another.

As I learn, I grow, As I grow, I understand, just a little more.

I became chronically ill about a year ago. It has taken sometime to get used to that. I am a little better as long as the doctors give me medicine to keep me awake. I now take medicine to wake up, medicine to walk, medicine for tears and saliva. Well i am awake with a mess on my hands. I have down sized to something affordable for a sick person. I still need some getting started money. Or is it getting caught up money? It is all about survival. I feel i could make it in this apartment if i can get my gas turned on and get my tooth fixed. Does anyone help a person with dental bill? It really is making me sick. i think i could get off of pain pills and antibiotics if i could get this tooth fixed. I do not make enough saliva and i have had to fix two other teeth already this year. well a big task when you are this sick. I guess i need all of the help i can get these days. But just getting this last tooth fixed would be a dream come true. It is broken pretty deeply. I just payed deposit money for an apartment. I do not have the gas on yet but i am working on it. At least i have a place of my own. For months now i have been cancelling dentist appiontments because the money has to go for food or medicine. And even that is hard to come up with some days. I think i could get a part time job if i get my tooth fixed. I don't think the community understands how badly auto immune disease can disable a person. I sat for two hours with strepthroat for a food voucher at Salvation Army last week. I did get some food, only because someone else left and did feel like waiting. I stayed because i had no food. They only helped 15 people. I was scared that i might not get any food. I was thrilled they gave me a voucher for $50.00. I would rather be well and work for a living of course. But it is going to take a little work for that to happen.

I am here to help if I can..I am a true giver, I would like firstly to say always remember to say "I love you" to your wife, or husband and family, because one day you may not be able to..and always be positive, no matter how dark the world seems, there is light there, and there is hope, and are people who can help and live to do so....the door can only open for you, if you are honest with yourself, and can look in the mirror and say I am ok! ...xxx please feel free to email me and If I can help at all, I will .....God bless xxx Peter

I am a 28 year old female of 3 chrildren two boys and 1 girl. Thier ages are 13,5, and 10 months. I have been living in Columia,S.C. for about 1 month and while I have been living here I have been living with my aunt who have been nice to take us in. I have always been a fool for love due to the fact I never was loved by my mother or father(both gave their lives to the street)that why I moved to Columbia. I have just started a job making eight something an hour,I do not have an car and I do not have a place to live. My 30 days are coming to have an adress of my own in order for my children to stay in school which I feel I will not have by friday(11-24-07). At the same time my aunt has given me the same deadline as the school to be out of her home. She is willing to help just not keeping her door open. I have over due bills every where and I do not have an way to pay them. I am a hard working female who have been to college drgee and I became an CNA. I do not want to be that type of female that want to live on welfare(food stamps only) all of her life. I have goals and dreams. I do want to be somebody and go somewhere and let my children know that african americans can come out on top if you wowrk hard. I have bad credit and that is why it is hard for me to fine a place to live that is a safe place for my children. If there is anyone out there thats willing to help please do so. If you have any question I am willing to answer.

Hi, hope this finds you all well today. I found a product not long ago that is truly a medical breakthrough for those who have any kind of medical concerns especially serious ones. I educate people who are sick on how to get well. There is help at last for many things. And it is all natural. I am not here to sell you anything, I am in need of some help myself. But if you would like to know more please contact me.

  To tell you a little about myself, I had heart surgery about 4yrs ago. It has slowed me down a bit and I can't hold down a regular job now. I am single and on SSI. My rent takes most of what I get and I don't qualify for food stamps etc. I fall between the cracks since I am not 55 or older when it comes to the food programs.

  I am also trying to but a home. Since I am low income and disabled I know I qualify for differnent government grants etc but I don't have a clue on how to apply or write them. There has to be an easier way. If there is anyone out there who has any ideas on how to get the help I need please contact me. My email address is godgrace33@yahoo.com  or if you know of any other programs of any kind that maybe of help.

  Some of my interests are fishing/ camping, reading, photography, yard sales and flea markets, crossword puzzles, rodeos, volunteering for things that people need etc. I like Chinese, Italian, almost any kind of food. I love animals and gardening. I like old and new movies. I have a variety of likes. Most music except rap or heavy metal or the sad country songs.

  Thank you much for stopping by. I hope to hear from you. Take care and God bless.
