U
ntil you have learned to be tolerantwith those who do not always agree with you;
until you have cultivated the habit
of saying some kind word of
those whom you do not admire;
until you have formed the habit
of looking for the good instead of
the bad there is in others,
you will be neither successful nor happy.
Napoleon Hill
GOOD MORNING !
A little warmer yet here today and a few showers are promised too !
When I was growing up, my mom, a very wise lady, always told me that I was never to think I was any better or worse than any one else. We were all created equally in God’s love. Sometimes that’s a hard thing to remember.
When a noisy car goes down my street and the vibrations rattle my windows, I’m not thinking about this person being one of God’s creations…When a rude driver cuts in front of me and makes me put on the brakes, I’m not thinking much of him either. So often it’s easy to loose track of exactly who we are !
I guess that’s the importance of starting your day off right. A little prayer or two never did any harm.
One of my favorites that I say every day going out the drive way is
Angel of God
My guardian dear
To whom God’s love
Commits me here
Ever this day be at my side
To light and guard
To rule and guide
The other is
‘Lord please watch over my babes this day’
And of course I’d be lacking if I didn’t say
‘Thy will be done Lord’
Today is Thursday, but It’ll seem like Friday as my 4 day weekend starts after work today ! It sounds wonderful , but we’ll see…
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
I always prefer to believe the best of everybody — it saves so much time.
Rudyard Kipling
May your day be blessed with a few SMILES and lots of SUNSHINE to warm your heart !

yeah its hard to believe we are all equal when one cuts us off like that. But I have at times accidentaly almostcut over ina lane nextto me so Itry think of it that way though now days it seems like road rages have taken the control far too often.
I say the Angel of God prayer every day too.... I guess since I learned it as a little girl... :) It's a good one. I hope your day goes fast so you can get on with the long week end.... Sandra
