The cream rises to the top

A funny thought was shared last week as we sat around the diner eating breakfast. A colleague suggested that the cream always rises to the top as he poured cream into his coffee.

Life is similiar to that cream rising to the top. A very small amount of attention, concern, love and compassion can affect one's life in a very positive way. Imagine, it only takes one pebble, one rock thrown into the sea to affect it's movement.

I believe the cream does rise to the top and no matter what you're going through, what you're fighting to overcome, you will rise to the top. What makes us special, "the cream" if you will is God's signature on our lives.

Character versus reputation. As the John Wooden always said, "Reputation is what other people think of you, character is who you are, be concerned more about your character than your reputation." Here's why, the adversary will always try to make you out to be something that you are not. Your character will be under attack simply for standing for the things that you beleive in. You have to stay strong in what you believe, you will rise to the top.

The cream rises no matter when you put it in your coffee, it does so because it's rich, made to balance and enhance the flavor. It adds to, it does'nt take away. You too, add life, you enhance life, you mix well, continue rising to the top. It's what you, "the cream" was meant to do. So continuing making an impact, one drop, one person at a time. Not only will you rise to the top, those you affect will also. Have a great day.
