The Career advise I wish I had at 25

I'm not up to 25 and many of us are not up to or older than 25 but this advise is necessary to everybody.   In the future, when we turn 50, we will each be given a ticket to a time machine and, just once, we will be able to go back in time and talk to our 25-year-old selves. Even then, time travel will be expensive and wreak havoc with frequent flyer programs. So there will only be one trip. So what if we could? What would we say? What advice would we give? I often wish I could do this. Just once. So, just in case the time machine ever comes along, this is the career advice I would give my 25-year-old self. 1. A career is a marathon, not a sprint Chill.

The 14years old girl: Afterwards they found Him guilty, they tore His clothes and put a crown of thorns on His head and gave Him an heavy cross to carry. He suffered that day, He fell down many times for carrying the cross, the soldiers were mocking Him. He was nailed to the cross, can you imagine His pain? The 40years old man: I can imagine, nailing my hands to anything noooooo. I feel for Him, He really did all things for me? The 14years old girl: Yes, He did, He died on the cross and after three day, He Resur

Scarlet (short story)

This is a fiction story, its not real. I'm only trying my hands and my brain so read and be blessed.  Scarlet entered the room and saw her child Julian, crying. She said "stop crying, you have started this morning, you don't want to go to school". She brought Julian out and they waited for the school bus and it came. Scarlet lost her husband to car crash 3 years ago, Julian was 4 years. Since then Scarlet got a job, took care of Julian all by herself. Scarlet reported to her office after the school bus went. As she entered her office an envelope addressed to her was on the table, she opened it and its a sack letter. She stormed out to the managing director's office and managing director apologized for the sack letter, that they are dropping employees. She cried and she packed her papers out of the office. She got home and the nanny asked why she is back so early, she said she was fired from her office. She and the nanny cried together. The next day Scarlet took he
