Let me say first that, for the most part, humans are stable, consistent animals. But every now and then, you meet someone who teaches you a valuable lesson. Have you ever known someone who is constantly “back and forth” on “life”? They may go back and forth into relationships, constantly keeping the other half of […]
That's Life
Respect Yourself And Be With People Who Truly Value You
Some people are just not going to like you. No matter what you say or do, some people just won’t ever like you. And that’s not on you. That’s something to do with them. It’s who they are. Either they like you or they don’t. Never try to convince somebody of your worth. If a […]
Most Of All, I’ve Learned
I’ve learned. A lot. And I learn every day and I pray that I continue to learn every day until the day I die. I never, ever want to be at a place where I stop learning. Isn’t that what life is all about? Learning? In my life, I’ve lived, I’ve loved, I’ve lost, I’ve […]
Grin Like A Chicken
You have to live your life for yourself. You can’t let anyone else’s opinion change who you are or what you do. Once you start changing who you are to please someone else, you can become stressed, less confident, less self-assured and depressed. No matter what you do, someone will talk about you. Someone will […]
Life Is An Echo
Some people call it Karma. I’ve always felt that the way Life happens for me is that God works in mysterious ways. Life is an echo. Oh yes, it is, my friend. You’ve heard this quote in many versions, I’m sure. What goes around, comes around. What you do to others, will be done to you…and […]
We Don’t Meet People By Accident
We don’t meet people by accident. I’m sure you’ve heard this a million times. But have you ever stopped to think about it? Everyone you meet, every single one you meet, you meet for a reason. The person you met at the gas station when you stopped to fill up? There’s a reason. The person who […]
Old Roads, Old Dogs, Old Folks And Old Ways
Let’s slow down for a second. Inhale and slowly exhale. Just breathe. Isn’t our world fast? Today everything just seems to be so sped-up! You hurry to get showered and dressed for your day. You hurry through your first cup of coffee. You hurry to get out the door, drop the kids off and hurry […]
Love Your Own Company
Are you comfortable with your own company? No one else…just you. You are? Me too. As a matter of fact, I love my own company. I probably love my own company a little too much. Sitting alone and enjoying your own company is better than being surrounded by fake people. ~Unknown Humans are wired to be […]
Back In The Day
I always have a flood of memories at this time each year. When I was younger, this was the perfect time for staying out all day long, into early evening. Summer hadn’t quite lost its grip, the air was still hot, but just a little bit cooler in the early evening and time spent outside […]
Life Is All About Balance
Life is all about balance. Be kind, but don’t let people abuse you. Trust, but don’t be deceived. Be content, but never stop improving yourself. ~Unknown. Whether you’re going slow and easy, or you’re running hard and fast, you must maintain a balance in your life. If you can’t find a balance, you burn out–quick. […]
