&lt;br /&gt;
We can't live without water. &lt;a href="http://www.chacha.com/question/what-percentage-of-the-human-body-is-comprises-of-water"&gt;The human body is 68% water&lt;/a&gt;. The poem below talks about how a country like Egypt needs water to survive, just like many other countries. Water is a blessing to Egypt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lesson to Learn&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Water is life, so preserve and use it well. Do not waste it by leaving your tap on unnecessarily or taking long baths whilst wasting water. There are many other bad habits of using water which we need to avoid to make the world a better place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Thought&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Be a blessing to your neighbor and love graciously like the R. Nile&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;BE THE NILE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Flow like the ravishing&amp;nbsp; Nile, its tributary, the Blue Nile, with its fertile soil that prevents toil for food.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Flow like the ravishing&amp;nbsp; Nile, the mastermind behind the works of the Aswan High Dam, providing power that provides a glow in the nights of Egypt.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Flow like the ravishing Nile, a medium of trade for those countries that seek an economic upgrade.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;The Nile is such a cornerstone of civilization&lt;/span&gt; to those countries around.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Nile is life, water is life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Be a source of inspiration to those around you like the Nile, do not curse but bless those around you.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Speak life and not death, there is power in the tongue.

&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Show endless love to your fellow neighbor, just like the Nile shows its love to the Egyptians.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: white; color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;T&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;he Nile does not ponder acts of love, but loves graciously.

Read the poetry and prose below. Stay Blessed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAYSklYBk3SHU_22GfU8fpHHSvO2KCzKQJ0bCOrR_IK0doeaLwjBLlgyCGa0KHA2wTWUE7Ya_lYzQjyMVJUz1fYCfnwohsKEBqQB9gwgVa7GOYTvacxD7y58uKl44Iw_uEB01aVfuFe-Vd/s1600-h/music+healer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAYSklYBk3SHU_22GfU8fpHHSvO2KCzKQJ0bCOrR_IK0doeaLwjBLlgyCGa0KHA2wTWUE7Ya_lYzQjyMVJUz1fYCfnwohsKEBqQB9gwgVa7GOYTvacxD7y58uKl44Iw_uEB01aVfuFe-Vd/s1600-h/music+healer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAYSklYBk3SHU_22GfU8fpHHSvO2KCzKQJ0bCOrR_IK0doeaLwjBLlgyCGa0KHA2wTWUE7Ya_lYzQjyMVJUz1fYCfnwohsKEBqQB9gwgVa7GOYTvacxD7y58uKl44Iw_uEB01aVfuFe-Vd/s320/music+healer.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The beat goes &lt;i&gt;Tigida Tigida&lt;/i&gt; as the Queen of England steps out of the plane, she listens to the beat and smiles, as the locals of the "Pearl of Africa"&amp;nbsp; welcome her to their nation. She inhales the breath of hospitality in this nation, and feels right at home.&lt;br /&gt;
The following week, the beat goes &lt;i&gt;Tigida Tigida&lt;/i&gt; as the President of France steps out of the plane, he listens to the beat and smiles, as the locals of the "Pearl of Africa" welcome him to their nation. He is also affected by the breath of hospitality and feels right at home.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Music can improve relations between nations &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;My South African friend said:&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;"We fought apartheid, lets unite as we sing &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;Kwaito Music. It is the pride of our nation and puts the country on the world map for the right reasons and not the wrong reasons. We have come a long way. Though the word Kwaito reminds me of the barbaric activities in the gold mines, the Kwaito sounds rapidly erase those tragic memories with a state of pride and victory."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Music was a medium of hope to the people of South Africa, and the country is well known overseas for its enthralling sounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I listened to inspirational songs after every surgery, and it gave me hope. It put positive thoughts in my mind, and&amp;nbsp; I never thought, I would not make it through adversity. So whenever I listen to those songs now, they remind me of the struggles I went through, and how I overcame them. One particular song that really helped me in the latter stages of my recovery was "All ye"&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;by Coffey Anderson. This song always made me happy and rejuvenated my spirits.

The world needs healing and people with the right motives to stop the unnecessary hate. People need to change their way of thinking to impact the world positively, every human being is a gift from God and should be respected.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

When I was recovering from my nine surgeries, I always wanted to keep my brain active and learn new things. One day some friends came to visit me, when I was still in pain physically and mentally. They encouraged me to listen to &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;All ye&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/b&gt;by&lt;b&gt; Coffey Anderson&lt;/b&gt;, and the song was so encouraging that I decided, I needed to learn how to play the guitar. &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Coffey Anderson's&lt;/b&gt; music videos on youtube are instructive, teaching one how to play the guitar. I watched many of his videos and tried to replicate them. I also watched other guitar playing instructive videos on youtube.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After about six months I played my first piece. &lt;b&gt;Which is featured below&lt;/b&gt;. If it was not for people like&lt;b&gt; Coffey Anderson,&lt;/b&gt; I would not have discovered the art of guitar playing. His words in the song &lt;i&gt;All ye &lt;/i&gt;were a source of inspiration.&amp;nbsp; I believe every human being is blessed with a gift, it is just up to someone to dig deep and figure out that gift.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Six ways to find out your gifts and strengths to better life.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Ask your parent figures (people that helped raise you up} your strengths. They know you the best. .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Ask your close friends what your strengths and weaknesses are. This can provide confidence when performing tasks. For some reason your friend can pick up character traits that are hard to discover by yourself. I literally tried this recently, I went out for dinner with a group of friends, and asked everyone on the table to share their strengths and weaknesses. It is was quite interesting, my friends picked out traits in my character that I never knew. This has made me more efficient in my daily tasks,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Analyze your hobbies, they can tell you a lot about strong character traits that can help you in life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Write down your goals and ways to better your life everyday. Some how this will enhance your brain potential and force you to use gifts and strengths to overcome obstacles. Here are links that explain this better. &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERJbaFtbdRk"&gt;Increase brain potential&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpkibbwwEws"&gt;the power of thinking.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Make sure your social networks add value to your life and are fruitful. &lt;i&gt;Bad company spoils good character.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Look for a mentor in life to guide you through your field. For example, if there is figure out there that has been successful in your field of business or interest, read more about the figure and even better, try to contact the individual and form a relationship with the individual. This individual can tell you if your doing something wrong or your in the right track because of being successful and familiar with the field.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope these quotes from my life improve yours. &lt;br /&gt;
