Don’t allow people to get close to you too quickly,
because most are going to break your heart
or upset you at some point.

It’s imporatant. Whenever you plan to rest – really rest. That means that you will have to make a conscious effort to push all work-related thoughts and worries away. It’s also important that you rest your mind as well as your body. 5 minutes of stillness is better than 30 minutes in front of the TV!

| Baby’s Bittersweet First Day: Now Mom Can Be Hanged for Marrying Christian (ABC News) |
By ABC NEWS | Good Morning America, May 30, 2014
The baby girl born to a woman sentenced to hang in Sudan for marrying a Christian American citizen met her father for the first time — a moment that was captured in a bittersweet photo.
Daniel Wani, an American citizen who lives in New Hampshire, held his daughter, Maya, in his arms as she rested peacefully days after being born at a Sudanese prison.
The moment of joy was tempered by sorrow as Meriam Yehya Ibrahim Ishag, the Sudanese woman facing flogging and a death sentence for marrying Wani, gave birth to baby Maya earlier this week.
Sudan’s Islamic court considered Ishag a Muslim and did not recognize her marriage to Wani, a Christian. That constituted a crime of adultery and she was sentenced to receive 100 lashes.
The court also found her guilty of apostasy by converting to Christianity and sentenced her to be hanged.
The flogging and the death penalty were to be delayed until after she gave birth.
The couple also has a 2-year-old son named Martin and reports state that the boy had been living with his mother in the prison.
Ishag is considered Muslim by Sudan’s courts because her father was Muslim, though she raised by her Christian mother.
Wani and his brother, Gabriel Wani, grew up in Sudan but moved to New Hampshire. He returned to Sudan last week after his wife was condemned to be hanged.
She is reportedly slated to remain in jail for two years to nurse the child before she is to be flogged and hanged.
The court’s sentence has prompted statements of concern from Western governments and human rights groups.
Her lawyers continue to appeal and petition for clemency.

Cats do care. For example they know instinctively
what time we have to be at work in the morning
and they wake us up twenty minutes
before the alarm goes off.

1. Cite to yourself the bad habits that these friends have and the effect their behavior has on you. Your decision is to get away from their behavior. Don’t judge the people, judge the behavior and the effect it has on your life. Sometimes, even though you may think that you can, it is not possible for you alone to change the bad influence of your friend’s behavior. It can occasionally be best for you to break ties with them before their attributes rub off on you.
2. Practice beforehand how to confront your friends. It is hard to confront people and say that you don’t want to be with them because that might cause instant enemies. Practice some ways you can let them know that you have other things to do, without saying they are wrong or bad. It’s easier to substitute a positive behavior than think about not doing a bad behavior.
3. Ask help from your parents. You can also use your parents as an excuse even if you don’t want to let them know about your (former) friend’s behavior. Just say you aren’t allowed to do what they are asking of you.
4. If you are hurt or depressed because your old ‘friends’ have mistreated you, you can talk to a TRUE AND CARING FRIEND that you have. You know who they are. They are simply the ones who don’t let you do bad things. They are also the ones who are always there for you. Especially on hard times.
5. Make new friends. Know the type of friends you want to meet. Make a list if you like. Have faith in yourself. There are caring friends out there. Just look around you.
6. It is alright to check on the person you want to be friends with. Ask your friends if they know how the person is .
