A number of years ago heard a philosopher say," You are where you are because that's exactly where you want to be."Bought that idea and repeated it to others. A beautiful story you may read to make the point more clear.
It's in your hands,Son
Perhaps a parable will help you see the point. High on a hill top over looking the beautiful city of Venice, Italy, there lived an old man who was a genius. Legend had it he could answer any question anyone might ask of him. Two of the local boys figured they could fool the old man, so they caught a small bird in his hands and asked the old man if the bird was dead or alive. Without hesitation the old man said, ' Son, if I say to you that the bird is alive, you will close your hands and crush him to death. If I say the bird is dead, you will open your hands and he will fly away, you see, Son , in your hands you hold the power of life and death." This I say to you without qualification, and with no mental reservations whatsoever. In your hands you hold the seeds of failure- or the potential for greatness. Your hands are capable but they must be used - and for the right things- to reap the rewards you are capable of attaining.
It's what is inside you that will make you go up.
