2020 (The Year of Perfect Vision)

Image
Good morning and Wonderful Wednesday. Brand new year. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. One of the things that I have learned about myself is that although I can hear as if I was a rabbit, I can not see that well. It is not as though I am totally blind, but I, like others have issues with seeing. The condition I have is called near sighted. Others have what is called far-sighted. Others may even have deeper issues such as cataracts and some may not be able to see. For those who have eye issues we go to a doctor, an optometrist, to fix the whatever conditions that are wrong with our eyes. For some a pair of eyeglasses is the cure. Others may need stronger things such as bifocals. Others may even need to have surgery. For those of us who are looking for bigger and better things in the coming decade such as opening businesses. becoming an actor or just finishing school, this year is important. It is the year of 2020 and it will be the year of perfect vis...

I Told Yo So

Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new month. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. As we begin the 182nd day of the year 2019 I recall back to a time when I was attending grammar school and it had been cold and ice on the ground. My Mother knew that I liked to do things on my own but really was not wise in my decision making being a teen. She told me before she left to go to work that she wanted to not wear my favorite shoes which would not be able to grip the ground and I may fall and injure myself. So while we she was there I took them off and placed on the shoes that she knew I should wear to be safe. As soon as she walked out of the door I decided that maybe she did not know what she was talking about and I changed my shoes to the ones I liked to wear. I headed out the door and began my walk to school in the shoes that I wanted to wear. I was on my way to an I Told You so moment. As I began my walk to school I had to hurry because in the tim...

The Comeback

Image
Good afternoon and Wonderful Wednesday. As we continue with these teachings in the month of Adjustments in April based on Jeremiah 30:1-3 and Luke 20:5-7 the past month I lost both of the jobs that I had. I was wondering what can I do and how would I make it. I wanted to cry but the tears never came. I wanted to become depressed but it seemed like that never happened. I wanted to stop these teachings but what good would that do. In times that seem hard that is when you trust in God the most as your faith will be tested and mine surely was. How could God allow this to happen when I love him and take time out to teach his Word to people across the world even though it may just be a few. But as usual what I thought was a setback actually was an opportunity for me to make an Adjustment in April and began a strategy for something I will call  The Comeback. In beginning this teaching I want to begin by defining the word Comeback and in doing so will go to dictionary.com. The word co...

Beauty and the Beast

Good evening and Marvelous Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. As we continue these teachings of Adjustments in April based on Jeremiah 30:1-3 and Luke 20:5-7 most of the people who know me in the job settings where I have worked will probably tell you that I am the nicest person that they have ever met. The name of this blog came from me encouraging people in the hallway of 175 W Jackson and telling them it is brand new week to accomplish what you may not have gotten done already. As a doorman, insurance agent., and other places I have worked consumers and customers and residents have gotten the best of me. But for those family members who truly love me and that is including my parents, sons, and siblings, for they are the closest to me as far as being related, I treated them like crap, no kind words for them. I was in a sense a Beauty and a Beast. You see I had more love for those people who I really did not know, and had no...
