    Not Today

    Today is not the day to worry. Today is not the day to panic. Today is not the day to focus negative thought. Today is not the day to fight. Today is not the day to doubt. Today is the day to love. Today is the day to appreciate what you have. Today is the…

    Smiles

    Share smiles not frowns. If you are like me you are sad that you can’t hug your friends right now. I am even limiting how much I hug my family. We can share a smile at no risk. I am a smiling fool. Every time I see a sad or more often a scowling person…

  • Words

    Words

    I love words. They can be heavy or light. Words can be harmful or hurtful. Words can be helpful or wise. Words have power. In this crazy new normal we find ourselves in, be mindful as to how you use words. Do not deliberately use them for false information. Use them instead for spreading kindness…

    Trust

    Warning: Today’s thought is deep. Who do you trust? It’s easy to say, “I trust you”, do you really though? What does that mean? The trust I have for coworkers and friends is different from the trust I have for my children. The trust I have for my children is different from the trust I…

    It’s a New Day

    When the chaos of this life causes you to be exhausted and anxious remember tomorrow is a new day. As much as I detest old worn out sentimental expressions, I have to admit this one is a fact. Do not under estimate the power of a good night’s sleep and a snuggle from your mate,…

    To Each Their Own and Be True

    It is no secret that I am a Christian. I do not often say that out loud or write it because it sets preconceived images of who you think I am in your head. I am not a traditionalist. I often say that I practice no B.S. Christianity. You might be exposed to several different…

  • Thank you, Elders

    Thank you, Elders

    In this crazy world that we find ourselves in today I am thanking my grandparents. My mother’s parents in particular today. They taught me how to live well on very little. My grandparents grew up in rural Alabama in an age where if something was broken you fixed it. They grew vegetables, baked bread and…

    Panic Helps No One

    When has worry and panic ever helped you to relax or think logically? Right! Never. Calm down y’all. This too shall pass. Be smart about it. Read facts. Ignore media hype. Listen to the experts. The trouble is going to complete its natural development to the end. Then a great new trouble will arrive. I…

    Luck? No, Thank You.

    I believe in human free will and initiative. If you want something to happen make it happen. I hear those who know me asking, “What about prayer? You believe in prayer.” Yes, I do. I believe in thanking God, by whatever name you choose to invoke, for things you need and asking if it is…

  • Have Fun

    Have Fun

    With all the bad news out there it is important that you take time to have fun when you can. One of my habits is to surround myself with quirky and unique things. They mean nothing to anyone else and they are nothing of any monetary value. Things given to me or things I have…
