He had six times to lead his troops into battle against the aggressors from England, but six times the battle, his army was always beaten battered by the enemy, to defeat and was forced to flee into the forest.

Finally, he himself is also hiding in an abandoned hut in the wilderness.

One day, pouring rain, through the rain from the leaky roof on the face of Bruce, so he woke from his sleep. For a moment he contemplated his fate is unfortunate because it could not defeat the enemy, although he has put all the effort.

The more he thought about this, his heart more painful, and almost hopeless.

At that time, Bruce's eyes looked up across the wooden beam above his head, there is a spider was weaving its web.

He carefully monitoring the gestures these spiders, businesses count the spider has six times in a row trying hard trying to connect one end of the string to a wooden beam in the opposite, but ultimately failed.

"Really sorry for this little creature."
Bruce said, "You should just give up!"

However, Bruce was beyond expectations, despite having six times the spider failed to connect the end of the string, then he does not despair and give up trying, he tried again for the seventh time, and this time he succeeded. Seeing this, Bruce was amazed and forget the fate that had befallen him.

Bruce finally stood up and took a deep breath, then he shouted out loud: "I'll fight again for the seventh time!"

Bruce finally really get the spirit back, he quickly gathered and train more troops remaining, then set the strategy and stormed the enemy again, with difficulty and struggle relentless, Bruce finally managed to expel the enemy and reclaim their homeland .

Even The Maya also Disgusted With Doomsday 2012

Where it comes from 2012's Resurrection begin? As reported so far, the end of the world taken from the 2012 version of the Mayan calendar that will "run out" at December 21, 2012.

So how did the response from the Maya themselves? Apparently, they too are fed up, annoyed, and angry with this.

Apolinaro Chile Pixtun really tired of being bombarded with questions about it. Pixtun is a Mayan. "I returned from England last year, and people keep asking, I'm sick of this!" He growled.

Pixtun Chile, is from Guatemala, said that even the theory of the spring end of the West, not from the ideas the Mayans.

Huchim Jose, Yucatan Maya archaeologist said, "I went to some Mayan-speaking communities and asked them to tell what will happen in 2012, they say, they do not know. That the world would end (in 2012)? They do not believe it! We have real concerns about what happened today, like rain. "

Stuart, a specialist in Mayan epigraphy at the University of Texas at Austin is also an opinion. "The Maya never said the world would end, they never say anything bad will happen by itself."

Conversely, Guillermo Bernal, an archaeologist at the National Autonomous University of Mexico said that the end of 2012 was "very Christian." According to Bernal, it may be because Western society has been feeling "tired" with their lives without a purpose. Well! (sa / msnbc)

Life is a choice

always in good spirit and always had a thing

Many ministers in the restaurant out if Jerry moved
work, so they can continue to follow the
one restaurant to another restaurant. Reasons why
the waiters followed Jerry out
is because of her attitude.

Jerry was a natural motivator. if employees
was having a bad day, he was always there in
there, telling the employee how to look at
the positive side of the situation being experienced.

Seeing this style really made me
curious, so one day I met Jerry and
asked him, "I do not understand! No way
someone becomes a positive-minded people
all the time.

How can you do? "Jerry said,
"Every morning I wake up and say to myself, I
have two options today. I can choose to
is in a good mood or vote in
a bad mood. I always vote in the atmosphere
good. Every time something happens, I can
choose to be a victim or I learned from
incident. I always choose
learn from it. Each have someone deliver
complaints, I can choose to receive complaints
they or I can take the positive side ..
I always choose the positive side. "

"But it is not always that easy," I protested. "Yes,
it is, "Jerry said," Life is a
choice. When you remove the whole problem, each
it is a choice. You choose how
responding to all the circumstances.
You choose how people around you
affected by feeling.
You chose to exist in good condition or
bad. It is your choice how you live. "

A few years later, I heard Jerry had
disaster unthinkable happened in
the restaurant business: do not let the back door
locked in one morning and robbed by three men
armed. When trying to open the safe, his hand
shaking with nerves and one dial
combination. The robbers panicked and shot him.
Luckily, Jerry was found quickly and immediately taken to
hospital.

After undergoing surgery for 18 hours and a week
intensive care, Jerry was able to leave home
pain in several parts of the bullet was still in
in the body. I saw Jerry about six months after
the disaster.

When I asked Jerry how he was doing, he
replied, "If I can be better, I'm more
like to be twins. Want to see the former
my wounds? "I looked down to see his wounds,
but I was also asked what the
his mind as the robbery.

"The first thing that comes to mind is
that I had to lock the back door, "Jerry replied.
"Then after they shot and I
lying on the floor, I remembered that I had two
choices: I could choose to live or die. I
choose to live. "

"Are you not afraid?" I asked. Jerry continued,
"The great medical experts. They kept saying that
I'll recover. But when they wheeled me into the room
emergency room and saw the expression on the faces of doctors
and sisters I was so scared. Their eyes said 'People
This will die '. I knew I had to take
action. "

"What are you doing?" I asked. "There is
fat nurse who asked me, "said Jerry." He
asked if I had allergies. 'Yes' I replied ..

The doctors and nurses stopped working and they
waiting for my answer. I took a deep breath and
yelled, 'Bullets! " Amid the laughter of their I
say, 'I choose to live. Help me
operated as a living, not dead '. "

Jerry can live because of the expertise of doctors, but
also because of his amazing life. I
learned from him that every day you can choose
whether you will enjoy your life or hate it.

One thing that yours truly could not
controlled by others is the attitude of your life,
so if you can control it and all
things in life will be easier.
