What I've Learned (The Best Of)
As this year closes out...Here is the best of What I've Learned...
1..My Mother told me early in life that "Everybody is not going to like you and if they do, then you're doing something wrong."
2. Don't look back unless it's a great view.
3. Having People tell you everything you want to hear doesn't help you or the person lying to you.
4. Sometimes, the closer you look at something , the more complex it becomes.
5.Practically all of my aunts and uncles taught me something as I was growing up...I'd like to think they left a part of themselves with me.
6. Friendship requires investment.
7.You're only as good as the day after they tell you you're great!
8. The Good Guy doesn't always win...but neither does the Bad guy...The right guy wins!
9. I'm a Baptist now (I converted to the Baptist faith when I got married.) I try to take communion as much as possible..Still it's very important to me to go through this little drill about what God's purpose in life for me is before I get out of bed every morning. (I still don't know.)
10. It's really sad that some adults act like children...Most children want to be adults one day.
11.It's a divine accident that any of us are on this Earth...Living and existing at this time....I'm humbled when I think of it all!
12. You are ultimately, the person you think you are!
Everyone have a joyous and prosperous New Year!

KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"
DEAR GOD: Sometimes it is so hard to wait. To wait for new things to happen in my life. To wait for you to answer my prayers. To wait for the open doors that may lead me into a new way of being. During the time of waiting, it seems that all I can think of is having what it is I am waiting for. At times I feel weary of asking and waiting, and I wonder if you really hear my prayers at all, if you are ignoring me, or if you are simply refusing to give me my heart’s desire. A part of me knows that you want my best, and that your time is not my time, but Lord, it is still so hard to wait. Deepen my trust, O Lord, during the times when my heart longs for what can only come in the fullness of time. Give me a calm assurance that your will for me is grander than anything I could ever imagine. Still my mind and heart in your love so that I am mindful of the grace you are draping around me every single day, every single moment. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.
