Snakes and Scorpions vs People

Some people are like snakes. When they move their mouth, you can’t tell for sure whether they are trying to smile at you or getting ready to bite you. 

Negative talk is like a verbal scorpion

Emotional scorpions can poison our attitude

Choose your influencers carefully

Cultivate friendships with positive people

Good association builds positive attitudes

Words can inspire and words can destroy.

Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate, and to humble.

The best world shakers were the ones who understood the true power of words. They were the ones who could climb the highest.

Speech has power. Words do not fade. What starts out as a sound, ends in a deed.

Relationships; Friendship

يَا وَيْلَتَى لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِيلًا

Oh, woe is me! Would that I had not taken so-and-so for a friend!


Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:65
وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ الَّذِينَ اعْتَدَواْ مِنكُمْ فِي السَّبْتِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُمْ كُونُواْ قِرَدَةً خَاسِئِينَ

And indeed you knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath (i.e. Saturday). We said to them: "Be you monkeys, despised and rejected."

The wrong one will find you in peace and leave you in pieces, but the right one will find you in pieces and lead you to peace.


Poisoned Society


Allama Iqbal replies to his father, that my people are so emotional that they don't care whether it is life water or lethal poison.
