Early morning wisdom

Misunderstanding is preceded by lack of communication therefore make swift toward conversation.

Be swift in letting others know you value the friendship and relationship.

You can't say for anyone else what is due them. You just have to know what is due you.

Ladies, let not looks and charm be the illusion to draw you away from what you know to be right and pledge not to hurt friends because of it.

Make no excuse for trying to delay happiness when you yourself are wrapped in the arms of the one you love.

Don't accuse one of not being swift in their actions, only to follow them around and hinder their progress.

Don't profess the mountain achievable to climb if you are going to be the one striving to pull them down.

Don't take the bread nor the crumbs that one has created either by vision or accomplishment and then pity them when they have no food after you have taken it to make wealth for others.

To every woman who supports and encourages another, who shines their light so others can see, who has been a virtual mother, inspiration, and given wisdom to many- I salute you this day. For that too is one of the highest acts of civility known to mankind

Just thinking

Love is the thing that makes you smile, knows when you need a hug, supports you when you need uplifting, is a calming force, an ally when needed, but more importantly a hand to hold in times good, bad, and otherwise. Love is not be feared. But we should fear never giving ourselves and truly loving.

A Nice Breeze and a Bit of Perspective

As I stated yesterday I went for a walk and enjoyable it was. It was windy and I loved it. 70 degrees and a breeze didn't make for a bad time outdoors at all. Needless to say it brought yesterday's earlier agitation (read totally perturbed) to a simmer and provided an interesting perspective. I relished the blowing air and thought about my time in college. It was great and I got through it with out too much drama or incident (with the exception of a few memorables, which is for another day another post). That being said, I didn't drink, smoke or experiment with drugs. I don't say that as some type of badge of honor because that's not the case at all. But it was apparent, that somewhere along the way I truly believed what my grandparents told me growing up about character, honor, and integrity. However, the older I get I've grown wary or maybe even cynical at what maybe appears to be watered-down standards we've immersed ourselves in society. Notice I say

Movie Watch

Keep the reel running. Just kidding kinda. Actually I say that because I was not a big TV person(literally). It was not uncommon for several weeks to go by with out me turning it on. But I've probably watched more TV this year than I have ever. That being said, I've learned a few things. TV has given me a different perspective on life. Not entirely but enough to learn something. Of course some of the greatest fun I've had is identifying what I like and don't like about the films and why. Some lessons learned have come out of the most unsuspecting shows. Here's something interesting to do, think about the movies and TV shows you've seen this year and think about how they have made you ponder during the 1st decade of the 21st Century. Here's one of the realizations I've discovered in 2010. People can be reckless with the lives of others. And after having learned that, here's the reality check I got in my own life- those who are reckless in their ca
