DROP THE BONE

A dog has taught me an important lesson in this encounter. I was in a car commuting from home to my daily errands. The car was speeding at about 80kms per hour.
Suddenly I saw a dog running so fast trying to overtake the car so that it could cross the road.
I was frightened that the car will run the dog over, the was fast approaching the dog, then I saw the dog suddenly increase it's speed and was able to cross the road successfully. Little wonder when I saw that something fell off from the dog before the dog could increase it's speed.
I asked the driver to please reverse, I need to see what fell off from the dog.
When I saw what fell off, one of the greatest lessons sunk into my thick skull. The dog let go of the BONE, it was that SIMPLE. It reach a point where the dog had to let go of the BONE in order to gain speed and save it's life.
WHAT IS THE LESSON?
Let go of the BONE.
There are bones we held onto in 2017, if we succeed to let go of 2017 "BONE" then we will do wonders in 2018 and years beyond.
There are so many types of BONES which for sure have held us back :..
(1) failure to seek new thought or new way of doing things is a BONE.
(2) Not having a home business and staying on the informed side to elevate your self and the generation is a BONE.
(3) Thinking that money alone is the source of happiness, that is the HARDEST BONE.
(4) Going to work late and acting irresponsibly is a BONE.
(5) Not worshipping God, be it in the CHURCH or MOSQUE is a tricky BONE.
These are only few examples, the list is endless.
Let us drop the BONE, so that we can have a prosperous 2018 and years to come.
This is my new year welcome bulletin.
