Frogs

Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs who arranged a
running competition. The goal was to reach the top of a very high
tower.

A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer
on the contestants. The race began. Honestly; no one in crowd really
believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower. You heard
statements such as: "Oh, WAY too difficult!!" "They will NEVER make it
to the top."
or: "Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!"

The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one....
Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and
higher....
The crowd continued to yell,”It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!"
More tiny frogs got tired and gave up....
But ONE continued higher and higher and higher....
This one wouldn't give up!

At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for
the one tiny frog that, after a big effort, was the only one who reached
the top!

THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one
frog managed to do it? A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had
found the strength to succeed and reach the goal?

It turned out.... that the winner was DEAF.

The wisdom of this story is:
Never listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or
pessimistic.... because they take your most wonderful
dreams and wishes away from you -- the ones you have in your
heart! Always think of the power words have. Because everything
you hear and read will affect your actions!

Therefore:
ALWAYS be....POSITIVE!
And above all:
Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfill your dreams!
Always think:
God and I can do this!
