Courage

Sunset with Lighthouse
… coming at you from all directions at the same time.

It takes real courage to work in the safety field.

Sometimes resistance is coming at you from all directions at the same time.

Here is something I wrote some time ago in my book Serenity! Serenity! Living the Serenity Prayer.

Courage—That stuff of which

Heroes and heroines are made.
God, I need a ton of it
And more for what I must soon do.
To change those things I can—
Courage—that will be a start.
The courage to live my life,
Twenty-four hours at a time.
The courage to face the next moment,
The next day.
And God, if you will renew that courage
On a daily basis then I can make a good life of it.

Say Something Good

Fireworks. I love to see them, I love to hear them, I love the smell of them exploding and I know that they can often be unsafe when misused but still and all, I love them.  May God bless America and keep us all safe from those fireworks and also keep our troops from harm.

Points To Ponder

He who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.  Saint Basil

A Little Humor

THE SENILITY PRAYER: Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Quote of the Week

You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want. Zig Ziglar
