Affirmation for October 11, 2011: A Good Friend

True friends stab you in the front.- Oscar Wilde
Thought of the Day:
It's great to have an army of friends who have your back. They perpetuate good thoughts and strengthening ideas towards us and our goals. It becomes almost like having a personal cheer team giving us pep and hope in making it over those last hurdles, even if it was ourselves who inadvertently propped them up.
But who are the friends who help us grow? Sometimes, it‘s those who appear to be on the opposing team who can help us avoid propped up extra hurdles, and who end up causing us to become stronger individuals. They teach us lessons by pointing out our faults knowing it will hurt our feelings and disturb our personal rhythms. It's these front-stabbers who know that sacrificing your happiness today can save you a lot of sadness in the future.
Trust that these people are also your friends.
