Think

Whenever you think you can’t make a stand, for what you do is never enough, think again my dear friend for somebody lied, and that is surely a bluff. If you woke up this morning, went out and about, said hello to a clerk with a smile It might just have been enough to brighten their day if only for a little while. We walk through life, sometimes thinking how horrible the world is becoming each day, Did you know that inside we all have the ability to be better, if only we would remember to pray. I’m not speaking of your God or, My God or Their God, Just God in the heavens above, He is there, and he is watching and listening but most of all; he did give to us all the ability to Love. When you get up tomorrow and get ready for you day, think of your blessings and all those you love, remembering that some may not have what you do. If someone is cross and steps on your pride smile and remember you are you. If all a person carry’s with them is hatefulness, bitterness and sorrow, how can they learn to love and always have a better tomorrow? You might say to yourself how sappy this writer seems to be, Can you think of something better? Are you proud of all you see? It’s said that children are a reflection of who we are. Do you know you children? Really know them? There is no rhyme for this next line it is just a question I think we should all pay attention to. If we do not want hate and discrimination in our lives, isn’t it about time we teach our children to love and accept people? A child does not do what he or she is told, it does what he or she sees. What are our children seeing??? By Pam Ellis
