"Dear friend, if bad companions tempt you, don’t go along with them...Oh, friend, don’t give them a second look; don’t listen to them for a minute. They’re racing to a very bad end, hurrying to ruin everything they lay hands on." Proverbs 1:8-9, The Bible (The Message Version)
When you are on your journey of greatness to pursue your ultimate goal or dream.
It's easy to find people who want to burst your bubble - pushing you to the extreme.
Rather than to support you, they attempt to instill fear or to distract your direction.
They may tempt you to give up your dream and to cloak your goals in rejection.
This scripture reminds us that we should take care of who surrounds us day by day.
Some family and friends can be supportive, while others are best to keep at bay...
While they race ahead - not desiring better, you stay focused and go ahead.
Rather than crying about your life's regrets, you'll be the one laughing joyfully instead!
