What I've Learned
1. I am perplexed by adults who act like children. Especially since most children want to be adults.
2.In Politics when people compromise...Everybody is usually angry afterwords.. In a Marriage, it's compromise that keeps a couple together...Go figure!
3.When your fortunes fall...your ego becomes the biggest coward!
4. I've done my best to keep from living up to other people's expectations!
5.My Father never missed a day of work that I can remember....And my Mother always said "Be thankful that you have a job and work everyday that you can...Don't take off for frivalous reasons...."Which is why I have always had a great work ethic.
6.When you're successful, you can talk all of the trash you want!
7.As much as I should've, I didn't learn the lessons of older and wiser people until it was too late.
8.Don't confuse perception with intelligence!
9.Life is by nature, unfair
10.God does not distribute all of his gifts evenly.

KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"
DEAR GOD: My heart is heavy with my own failures. I try to excuse them and explain to myself why they occurred, because I want to be free from the feeling that I am unworthy and incapable of being all that I can be. But I find it easier to accept your forgiveness than to forgive myself. When I try to forgive myself, it seems I only remember and re-play my failures in my mind, and a sense of hopelessness floods over me. Help me to know that my past actions are a part of my growing humanity and that even when I fail to live up to what is your will for me, every single moment can be lived anew. Remind me that refusing to forgive myself only keeps me from experiencing that newness. Assure me of the truth that by casting “my sins into the depth of the sea”, you have freed me to discard them myself and live the next moment as if it were my first, for indeed it is. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.
