"Thank you" over the years have become more like a cliché. It has lost its meaning and is more like a formality to be fulfilled. Whereas this little word has the power to bring a smile on a face pouring tears. It's the greatest thing you can do to make a person happy. If said by the heart. We can all become so engrossed with our work and the reason we are here, that this simple courtesy is easy to forget. I think that many of us get caught up in the story of me and forget to thank others who have helped us get to where we are today. Regardless of how little their favours might be, always learn to say thank you to those that support you one way or the other. When you do this, favours will always come across your way, for one simple reason, those that you show appreciation to will always be happy anytime they think about you and the more people have happy thoughts towards you, the more you will find yourself in situations that will make you happy.

To Succeed: You Must Seek To Help Others
If you are in a position to contribute to the development of others or help them, to do something they cannot reasonably accomplish on their own, make an effort to assist them.
Anyone desirous of good success in life and business is expected to be involved in the ministry of helps. This involves giving whatever helping hand you can to another person in need. It has nothing to do with your status, how rich or poor you are or your position in the society. Success in life has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It's what you do for others. A good criterion for measuring success in life is the number of people you have made happy.
THE DISAPPOINTMENT OF A DEAD FATHER - (A short story by Ezekiel Benson - please read and share)
He lived a loose life. Never got married. Slept with different flavours of women, had only one son, Thomas, who attended church, played the keyboard in church, talked the bible and occasionally preached to his father to repent.
Thomas, was gentle, loved by all in church and lived as one who had passion for the work of God. He would pray and read his bible. His dad scorned and mocked him, saying "there is no God. Life is short, enjoy life now boy". Then came a day, Thomas' dad was standing at the side walk of a road, waiting to cross to the other side .. A truck whose brakes had failed reeled towards him at top speed and crushed him... He died instantly.
The next moment, he appeared before God, was found wanting, judged and sent to hot hell. He screamed, cried, wailed and begged for mercy. But the more he screamed, the more the reality of the eternal moment dawned on him " there was no hope. He has lost his chance. No mercy can be given". In weaknesses, despair and pain, he fell face down to the ground, crying. Then a hand dragged him up .. the hand of the angel of the Lords judgement.
