This week's
message is short and sweet. I wanted to
leave you with three thoughts that are not my own, but I like the sentiment
expressed in them. These are things that
perhaps we might think about, but not really consider closely.
They are:
"Everyone
makes mistakes in life, but that doesn't mean they have to pay for them the
rest of their life. Sometimes good
people make bad choices. It doesn't mean
they are bad. It means they are
human." Unknown (at least to me)
"Do all the
good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the
places you can,
At all the times
you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can." John Wesley
"Always end
the day with a positive thought. No
matter how hard things were, tomorrow's a fresh opportunity to make it
better." Unknown (at least to me)
I think these
three statements are related in that if we make mistakes, and we all do, if we
recognize this, we can still "do good" by any and all means possible
to help those who have made mistakes and who have fallen, and to remind them
that they, like we, are human.
And if we remember
that each day brings a new morning, we can begin again. We can start over and do better. All of us has this opportunity open to us. Let's take advantage of it instead of just
pushing play-repeat-play over and over again.
Each of us gets a "do over" and we need to allow others to
receive a "do over" also. It
isn't a luxury for just a few.
Something to think about . . .
Live Your Life,
and Make A Difference!
To My Readers:
Book Two of the Lives Trilogy, Shattered Lives, is now available on Amazon. It carries the reader forward from the
prequel, Taking Lives, and book one
of the Lives Trilogy, Stolen Lives. All three can be found on Amazon.
The publicity
blurb I use for Shattered Lives is
as follows:
Everyone thought
the boys were safe, and they were. That is, until people began dying. Some of
the men responsible for the boys’ captivity escaped and without any leads, the
FBI can only wait. A dangerous strategy when it involves the lives of the kids
and their parents. Continue the journey that began with the prequel, Taking Lives, and book one of the Lives Trilogy, Stolen Lives, with book two, Shattered
Lives. http://www.amazon.com/Shattered-Lives-Trilogy-Book-ebook/dp/B00UZRP828/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1427118727&sr=1-1&keywords=Shattered+Lives%2C+Joseph+Lewis
