Really, no kidding, is this today’s thinking? Just be demure, sweet with a dark soul sinking.? Jealousy of all who have a dime more than we, We haughtilly wish, they hang from the nearest tree? We judge those so harshly, who drive a new Jaguar? While God looks at us and wonders what makes us above par? The USA is hardly an unfree, brutal, Communist Cuba But if jealousy has you by the neck,go there and play the tuba! Neither you nor I are to judge the goodness of our fellow woman or man. It is better to spend time, living , sharing, with all we can. Judge yourself, if you wish, all day long.. But..far better to love all, a most holy, sweet song. I mean that by our actions, for the young and the old This will make us happy, and create in us, hearts of gold.. 10/25/2024 Dedicated to Patricia Stevens, my friend who made time for people and brightened their days. I miss her kindness, humility and her example.

Right on, Karen! We should all work on ourselves! God never Our minds talk to us all day you cant shut it off. When your mind sends you a negative thought, you need to thank it! This really works. Just say “Thank you for sharing” out loud or to yourself. Pangie

Yes, yes, jealousy. A great way to define oneself as a loser, Worse yet..put a halo on your head and define yourself as a victim! I am not the only human being who had to work two jobs a day.Men work overtime. We are a nation of cremepuffs, sometimes, freeloaders do please move! My dad said..Well, if you do not work, you do not eat! My Mom said,,Do you think the world owes you a living? Many other countries have freeloaders, too. Like leeches on a society.ugh. Pangiexxx

Hello, Bob. Hope you’re doing well. Thank you for the Biblical reference as well. I dont know if you saw the image, I dont think so. That concept of not judging is a great one. )) Merci, my friend, pangie xxx
