Where Are You

I put people into one of five categories. Enemy, no relevance, acquaintance, friend, and family. I expect enemies to do what they do. People of no relevance it doesn't matter to me one way or the other what they say and do. Acquaintances are where most reside. We know each other, have some degree of respect and interaction, some trust, but I do not put it past them to harm me to better themselves. I do not expect them to be there for me during true times of stress or trouble. Friends, I have few of. I believe it is a word that is overly used and few qualify to have. Family is not one based upon the blood you have when born, but is more based upon the blood you are ....

F inish IT!

F inish It We have all know that the best way to become fit is to buy the multiple things advertised and seen in the famous and often times non stop infomercials on TV right? Even the Wii Fit, PS3/4/25, and Xbox have fitness games to get you fit. Fancy watches tell you how far you have, phones entertain you while you exercise. Shaun T will dance with you, Tony Little will preach about his Gazelle, Tony Horton has his P90Xxxx’s and 10 minute trainer. Jillian Michaels tells you to be loser by losing weight with her and the show she use to star in “America’s Biggest Loser. We see elliptical machines reinvented daily. Ab Roller”, “Ab Lounge”, ....

What is revealed

A pastor said to me years ago "If someone tells you that you are a horse, simply laugh at them. If another tells you that you are horse, look deeply at yourself to find why they would say that. If a third tells you that you are a horse...No need to look further, for you are a horse.The perception of another is often times formed by the image you project. If people, the right people, who truly care about you, tell you that you project a negative image to others. Maybe it’s time to work more on you instead of focusing upon the faults of others. ....

Strap Up

"I Can't!" he yelled as he quickly got back up onto this feet. The tears were already flowing. Even through his headgear, I could see his red face and his glassy eyes. Even if I were unable to see his face I could still determine that he had given up. His shoulders were slouched forward, his former sure footed movements became uncertain. His once determination to move only forward, became backward movements programmed in his brain through his acceptance of failure. "I Can't" he screamed once again, as again he found himself on the ground. I called him over to me "What is it that you can't do?" I asked him as I knelt onto my knees to be alignment with his eyes. "This" he exclaimed. ....

Let Go

I was speaking to a friend today, he told me that he is trying to figure things out. He is facing personal and financial issues. As we spoke, he told me for many minutes of what he is facing. I waited and listened. At times the solution is found within the silence. When he took a moment to breathe I relayed to him to always remember that his had a purpose before he had a problem. Too often people allow the problem to take their eyes off of their purpose. Instead, the problem should be the reminder that you are on the correct course of living your purpose. I felt led to remind him "Remember, do not be concerned about doing All THINGS. Instead, choose to do the things that you ....

These Worn Shoes

The worn shoes. The alarm sounded in the morning like the many other before it. I attempted to roll over pulling the sheets over my head as if by doing so it would somehow stop the minutes from passing and again hearing the alarm. This time instead of the dreadful repeated loud time of the alarm, the radio sounded. “Zapp featuring Roger” pounded forth “MORE Bounce TO THE OUNCE”. Although still laying in bed I found my head nodding in rhythm with song. Sitting up I left out a big moan as I stretched. Standing up my body swayed side to side impressing the invisible ladies in my room dancing with me. Stepping into my closet I pulled out my clothes for ....

It's Not My Fault

Do you remember back to the days when you were in middle school or high school. Maybe you were like me. I was one of those kids who only studied when the teacher told us that a test was on a specific day. To be honest, there were even times, ok most times, when even knowing that a test was coming, I still didn't study. I can remember walking into class to hear the teacher say "Pop Quiz." Any smiling and laughter that I had entering the class quickly faded away. Like most kids, except those really smart kids (meaning the ones who were always prepared, always studied), I hated Pop Quiz's. I hate all quiz's whether a pop quiz or a planned test. Most times I didn't ....
