Guiding Lights: Embracing Friendship and Support Through Life's Challenges

Michael

Feeling like you're stuck on life's roller coaster, waiting for a hand to lift you over the hurdles? Let me take you on a trip to the whimsical land of Mike Believe, where we discover the profound strength found in friendship and support during challenging times. Think back to when I was battling an illness in college—my doctor's suggestion of a temporary remedy sparked a realization about the importance of having someone to help you through life's bumps. From career setbacks to personal storms, we all need that special someone to offer emotional, physical, or financial support, and we can also be that person for others. 

As we paint a vibrant picture of this supportive journey, I challenge you to identify who guides you through the ups and downs and consider how you can be that rock for someone else. Reflect on how a simple ride, a word of encouragement, or lending a helping hand can mean the world to someone. We'll explore how small acts of kindness can help navigate everything from creative frustrations to spiritual struggles. Join us for an inspiring conversation about the power of connection, compassion, and living life boldly—dreaming like there's no tomorrow but seizing each day as it comes.

Hello, it's me, the M, the I, the K to the E, hailing from the D, the Y to the T that's the abbreviation for the city called Daytonton and I'm sending you good sensations and vibrations. And remember, I'm just saying I want to talk to you from the subject of just to get you over the hump. Just to get you over the hump. I remember in college I was uh going through, uh, some sickness, uh, and the doctor was like uh, did you want some of this medicine just to get you over the hump In the meantime, while you're waiting for the other medicine? And I was just thinking about that, do you have anyone in your life who is ready just to get you over the hump? That can be emotional support, that can be physical support, that can be financial support. Or are you the person that can get somebody else over the hump? A lot of times we don't need a hand out, we need a hand up and we need somebody to help us in between the processes. So just think about that. Take a moment and think about if you have somebody like that, or if you are somebody like that. For example, if you lose your job, you may need somebody to help you to apply for jobs, to go to interviews, if you lose your car, somebody who may need to just supply you with the ride, or somebody who may need to just assist you with looking for a car. In the meantime, they're there to support you just in case you need to go somewhere. And of course, I know you're not just going to just do something and take advantage of somebody, but I know that you're going to be able to help them and show them some appreciation for them, giving you that ride or helping you and you're using services from them. But sometimes, every now and then, you very well might need to be a person who does something just to do it for good, not always for profit. And I'm not being unreasonable, because sometimes, if you're going very far, you may need gas, you may need this, you may need that, but just to get you over the hump. There is nothing like a great friend who can get you over the hump.

Speaker 1:

You may be going through a divorce, maybe going through a breakup, maybe going through a down and out moment, for whatever you're doing with your hopes and dreams, maybe perhaps your music is not going like it should. Maybe perhaps your book writing is not going like it should. Maybe perhaps your business, your entrepreneurial business, isn't going like it should, or just plans of life, and maybe your spirituality is not going like it should, but you need somebody to help you get over the hump, and sometimes getting over the hump is praying, and there are times when you are sick and not feeling well and somebody can get you over the hump by just calling you, checking on you, assisting you with things while you're getting over the hump. I just want you to just take a moment and think about getting over the hump and think about being that person, or think about that person who did that for you, and I want you to take that in and just sit there and let it resonate with you Getting over the hump.

Speaker 1:

You have once again come into the land of Mike Believe, a place that makes Emerald City look like a pile of green rocks. Never, neverland wished that it was never created and Wonderland wondered why it was ever created in the first place. And I encourage you to dream like you'll live forever, but please live like you'll die today. Bye.
