No Man is an Island

Confused?? I was too :)
In YW today Sis. Wilson wrote that up on the board. No man is an island. What the heck, right?!!
well, apparently it's a famous quote/song... yeeaahh... I've never heard it before in my life.
Basically it means you aren't alone and you depend on other people.
Still a bit confused? Me too..


My first thought while discussing this quote was
'We all see, we all hear, but pride gets in the WAY!!!'
Yeah, to most of you this is probably the weirdest, most random thing ever, which makes sense... it's an inside joke :D
 Joke or not though, it does apply.

While we were having our lesson I was thinking... 
I know, right? Me, thinking?? Haha :D

You need to lose the pride and get out of your comfort zone.
If you don't get out of your shell, extend yourself, meet new people or try new things, you won't be able to enjoy the opportunities or friendships that would have come your way.

Look at your life, look at what you could be missing out on!!!
And all you need is the desire. The desire to talk to the new kid, or sit by the person eating alone. The desire to pay a compliment or stick up for what you believe...
Once you have that desire, you need to act on it. Do something about that feeling, you don't know how it will change your life, or another person's.

Here's another quote.
"Don't box yourself in, and others out. Open your heart and share your 'treasures' with others." 
We all have something to share, whether we know it or not, it's there.
