The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

I Hear My Beloved Sing

He is coming to visit and he is dashing 

as a young stag leaping upon the mountains, 

springing upon the hills, there he is,

Standing at the door, trying to peer through 

the window and peep through open corner


Alas, he speaks, Come my darling,  

my fair one, come with me, 

the winter has passed,

The rain is over and gone

The blossoms have appeared in the land


The time of singing has come, and the voice of 

the turtledove has been heard in the land,

O my precious, gentle dove, you have been 

Like a dove in the clefts of the mountain rocks,

In the hidden places along the mountain trails.


Now come out from the hidden places,

And let me see you, let me hear your voice, 

For your voice is sweet and you're as 

Gracefully beautiful as a dove in flight 

Against a soft blue sky.


My love what we have together,

It is a valuable treasure,

It is like a garden of the loveliest flowers,

And in the world, let us therefore promise 

Each other to catch any foxes that could spoil


Tis our beautiful garden, when now at long 

lasting our sweetest love on us blossoms.

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
