I've had some very busy days at work and at home and haven't really had a chance to post. I've been meaning to post a quote of the day for the last week but I had to today because I just know God wants me to. I was watching a movie and had to rewind it 3x's to listen to this line again and again:
"Who you chose to have around you, let you know who you are."
I've heard this quote before but stated differently as I'm sure you have too, "Birds of a feather flock together", but for some reason when I heard it in that movie it made so much more sense to me. Then today I received an email with the following message:
Who are you around?Are the people around you your idea of who you wanna be? If you want to be in fashion, go to 7th Ave!! Wanna be a movie star??? Go to Hollywood!!! Ducks hang with ducks! Frogs jump with frogs! Where are you going? What is your aim? Watch the company you keep!!! (Remember!) If you keep going to the barber shop, you're bound to get a hair cut!!!
I knew I had to make this post and stop putting it off. Someone out there needs to read it. Maybe it was me or maybe it's you but I know it's important not to put things off as coincidences. God makes all things happen.

What a true and profound statement. That's why it is important that we know who labors among us. I have a mindset is of an eagle and I need eagle mentality people to be around me.
Thank you Nikki for posting this blog. You just don't know how much I needed that reminder.
I am currently reading a book by Elizabeth Brown - Living Successful with Screwed up People. (this blog in ON-TIME!!!!)
Very true indeed!!!! As my grandmother instilled in me as a very little girl. Watch the company you keep and birds of a feather flock togther.Well those two statements are a part of my life just like taking a bath!!! You previously had something like this statement in one of your Blogs before.I think it was knowing your surroundings????
Thank God for your Obiendence.
God tells us We are to do this very thing.
For whom ever this is for including yourself ....you did what he asked
and didn't put it off.
