No matter how bad you think you have it! someone else has it worse! when you look at what you have,think about the person who has less,when you look at yourself feeling you have nothing,say to yourself, if i change my circumstances,i can change my life;

Then you’ll say,how can i change my circumstances?,well, it starts threw hard work; because we all came in the world bare backed and naked,and what was given to us after that,is
not what made us;when you find the heart to care as much for someone else, as you care for yourself, then you have found the true you;

Learn to share the good thats inside you,and it will be given back to you;It may not be when you think it’s coming, but keep sharing, and it will come;just by helping someone else,you help yourself;by accepting a compliment on something you’ve done, is showing gratitude;If you look at life as a blessing rather than a curse,you can find direction in your life;
Know this, your body is not for just housing your life,but it houses your soul,your body falls to pieces daily,but your soul gains strength, evey monment in a day;
gravity is not your friend, its taking you back to the dust of the ground daily,without a doubt!
So whats this all saying, strengthen your heart of hearts, and your body will follow,whether with one limb or two,its the soul that houses the good or bad pleasures in life;take care of your soul, because its the only thing you have to give back;the rest of your body is promised to gravity,or to the dust of the ground,but your soul will live on for ever, whether it’s good or bad;Think!these truths are self evident, that all men, are created equal;
your friend Marvin Davis

When you’re young starting out to make a family;you are so excited because you want that first little baby,you just can’t wait!you are jumping inside,like a kid in a candy store;

Everyone is happy for you and your family,and you just can’t wait to make this beautiful family of your own,because you are like any other man with built up pride,saying to yourself i’m going to have the greatest family anyone has ever seen;

Then reality sits in after the baby comes, all the fun seems to go away,you’re up late at night,the baby is wet all the time,he crys endlessly,hes hungry,he spitsup on you as you are
headed out the door for work, and everything seems upside down for you;

But the thing you must remember!you started your family and no matter how many problems you face.you’ll have to work it out! with help of course; because there are others who have been there, and know you don’t have an easy job; Also, remember, theres better days ahead;
Its not unbroken ground,and you don’t have the first baby born;so if you keep doing the right thing,you’ll have a wonderful family,they inturn will have their family aswell;

Sometimes we must look at the little things and work them out to solve the big things in life;
The big things are always going to be there,and as long as you’re aware of them,you can work them out too;with help of course;This is very important to remember,know one wants to see you fail! although it seems they add to your load;

A very old down home saying,don’t worry about the mule going blind, just load the wagon and hold on to the lines; When you took the job of being a good father,everything was put in your lap;But it really wasn’t, because it takes a village to raise a child;
Keep your head up, and your mind made up, that you’ll have a great family, and you will;

your friend, Marvin Davis

We should influence,our younger generation to be all they can be; If a young person is influenced in a positive way,then, they can do some positive things to make this world pay attention in a good way;

The young people will be the ones to bring about change, to this world,but we must give them all the good influences we have to give them,so they can see the out come before it actually happens;A better world,a brighter future;

We must rid the world of a lot of negitive hold backs for our kids,nine times out of ten,we put the negitive thing or things in their hands and minds;now we need to begain taking it back from them and let them know we were wrong!

To have given them the negitive thing or things about this or that;We have to be willing to admit we were wrong in what we’ve taught them;just to save them from the negitive that will disrupt them and everything and everyone around them;but they need to hear it from us;That we were wrong;

We are their heroes, and they feel we can’t do any wrongin their eyes;Until they hear it from us that we were wrong, and we are sorry for misleading them,they won’t understand, and will go on feeling what they feel is right;sometimes hating and mistrusting others,and in a tolded state of confusion;

If we want to save our kids, we must make them see, we’ve been wrong in some of the things we’ve put in their hearts and minds;We must begain siting down and having heart to heart talks
with our kids, to bring them to an understanding, not, to put everything and everyone all in one category, because everyone is different;thats the way we were all made,all different! no two people are the same;

Maybe just maybe they can turn their lives, one hundred and sixty degrees around;Its worth
their lives to try and have that heart to heart talk with them;Thats if we know we’ve instilled somethings that was toldly wrong in our kids minds;Its time,that we all come together on this;

We will never agree on everything,but theres one thing we can all agree on, we are not perfect! and we’ve made mistakes, and will continue to make mistakes,but we need to agree on those imperfections,just to move forward,and to make things right for our kids and their kids;
your friend, Marvin Davis

We’ll always have good and bad;There is no two ways about that,its the way of the world;The good news is,there is more good than bad;

If it wasn’t, instead of everything being posisble,everything would be imposisble,and we know thats not the case;so we move threw the bad and continue reaching for the good;

In the end, we’ll find everything isn’t so bad after all;no matter what the case may be;
There’s always something good that comes out of everything;

Keep looking for the good, its there,sometimes its hard to find,but once you find it,it’s all good;and remember, what we put into a thing ,is what we’ll get out of it;

your friend, Marvin Davis

There was once a young man who went from door to door in his neigborhood asking people if could cut their grass; he was 14 or so,he finally got some clients;every week he would cut their grass; he did a wonderful job,so well they won’t him to do their hedges also;they would tip him very well because he was a good hard worker and they all appreiated his work;

Well this one older man would watch him all the time cuting grass and doing hedges all over the neigborhood;One day when he came to cut the mans grass and do his hedges also,
the man asked him,young man tell me,why do you work so hard? don’t you like to play with the other kids your age?

Well the young man looked at the elderly man and said sir,the reason i work so hard,there are
so many people in the world with nothing and some day i would like to help them;so i’m working and saving my money, because i want to become a Philanthropist,the elderly man had tears in his eyes when the young man told him why he worked so hard, because he was looking for someone just like this young man to share his money with;after the young man finished telling the reason for working so hard,he said to the elderly man, you have a great day sir.i’ll see you next week;

Well the elderly man was very rich and he had no family,so when the young man came back that following week he call him and said young man when you finish cuting my grass and hedges would you mine coming inside please? so the young man finished his work,and came
on the porch and knocked at the door,and said sir i’m finished.

The old man looked at him and said,son i don’t have any family now and i want to do something for you,to help your dream come true.The young man got excited! he thought to himself
oh hes going to give me a big tip for cuting his grass and hedges;

The elderly man said son,i want you to put this check in a mutual fund until you’re 21,when you’re 21 i want you to fulfil your dream;The young man said, kind sir how much is the check for?
the elderly man said it’s made out to you for the sum of three Million Dollars,it’s alot of money!the young man broke down and sobed like a baby! then thanked the old man,over and over!
The young man did what the old man asked of him; He begain to work even harder in that neighood until he formed a crew,to work with him,then his business started to grow, his clients grew until he was all over the city,eventually, the whole state, until he became a Millionare,in his own rights;
One day as he was taking care of some business he got a phone call,from his lawyer, the old man had died and lefted him everything he owned;come find out, the old man was a Stock Broker
and a very good one at that, he lefted the young 21 Million Dollars!! the young man went on to become a wonderful “‘Philanthropist”who helped many,many families all over the world;

The moral of this story, if we work hard and believe, all thing are possible;
