SMOOTH YOUR PATH WITH NOBLE FRIENDS

What direction are your friends taking you?
Tell me who your best friends are, and i will tell you who you are. If you run with wolves you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights. Proverb says, ''A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of fiends he chooses.'' The simple true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you closely associate-for the good and
the bad.
   Think about it; almost all of our sorrows springs out of relationships with the wrong people. The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve. Anytime you tolerate mediocrity in others it increases your mediocrity. I have found out that it is better to be alone, than being in the wrong company.
     If you find yourself taking two steps forward and one step backwards, invariably it's because you have mixed associations in your life. If a loafer isn't a nuisance to you, it's a sign that you are somewhat of a loafer yourself. Choose your associations carefully. This old saying is true: ''He that lies down with dogs, shall rise up with fleas.'' thomas Carlyle observed,'' Show me the man you honor, and i will know what kind of man you are, for it shows me what your ideal of manhood is, and what kind of man you long to be'' .
written by ''John Mason''.
