Lailah Gifty AkitaHow can we tell when trouble shall arise?
About This Quote
When trouble is approaching, how can you tell if it is really trouble or just the ordinary everyday life? You know it when you see it. You know it when you feel it. It will be like a cloud in the sky. It will be like a ball of fire in your stomach.
The best way to tell if something is trouble is to wait until after it has happened before you start worrying about it. Sit back and wait until after you have fallen into the quicksand before you try to get out of it again.
