Protect
Our children are the ones that we must protect. They do not have the same view of life that we as adults have because of our experience. We must be creative in our efforts to maintain their attention so that they can see the wisdom in us and see that they need to cling to the instruction of our words.

Concerning Freedom
On December 2nd 2011 I wrote this about freedom, “No matter the circumstances,or the situation your’re facing at any given time, you do not have to let it get you down. It really is your choice.”
.
But, do we really know how to be free. So many things are happening in our world that is threatning our freedom. Its like there is an evil calculated force out there that has one primary motive, and that is to to destroy us all. I don’t mean just literally but in our minds as well, to the point where we just surrender within ourselves under the pressures of fear. Fear has torment but no power of its own. Fear has to get us to agree with that pressue of enpending danger to rob us of our freedom. Don’t let it happen my friends. Don’t allow this force to use our own thoughts to steal our inner peace.

Go Ahead
Go ahead and what you might ask. Go ahead and do that thing that you have on your heart. Many times it comes upon my heart to pick up the phone and call someone just to say hi, only to sit there until my heart is no longer eager to do so or else I just simply forget. Go ahead and do now my friends, whatever it is.

The Legacy Lives
Everything that I have ever had to go through with my family has been well worth it for me. The good and the bad. I talked about legacy in one of my earlier blogs and why it is important to me and our communities. Today my legacy spoke with the birth of our first grandchild Annaleigha.

How About You
I remember a time in my life when there were some key issues that I felt like something should be done about. I was in my middle twenties and complaining within myself. One day it dawned on me that I was bothered because I needed to be the one to do something about it. Your inner displeasure about particular things could be a prompting for you to get involved and help make a difference.

Share It
All of us have something that we can share with the world. We may not be able to share it with the entire world, but we can share with the world that we live in everyday. How many people are in your circle every day. Well, that’s your world. Some of us may even say that we don’t have anything to share, but that is not true. I remember when I took a leadership position at the church I was attending a few years ago. Within the first week of being on the job, one of our church members walked into the facility that I was in charge of. I spoke to her just as I would anyone else. It didn’t seem like a big deal to me, but it was to her. Before she left, she approached me and told me thanks for acknowledging her when she walked in. All I did was simply say hello.

Remember And Learn
Mistake after mistake after mistake. Sometime I feel like that is the slogan for my life. But in making so many mistakes, I have come to find that my mind has attempted to lean toward telling me that everything I do is just going to turn out the same way. Our minds will tend to lean toward the most negative thoughts most of the time. This happens because it’s just easier that way. We must learn to train our minds to focus in the direction that we want when we are making attempts to move forward. We must not allow our minds to hit the replay button and play out all the mistakes we have made. If we allow our minds to replay them then it should only happen when we are looking at ourselves to make changes. To remember bad things in our past for the purpose of pulling ourselves down is not using our memory for the right reason. Concerning our memory, when we are pondering negative things that have happened, we should be pondering those things to see what we can do different.

Bounce Back Ability
How good is your bounce back ability. I grew up playing sports all my childhood life and had an opportunity to continue doing so right on through college. While doing so, I sustained several injuries that required me to sit out for short periods of time to rehabilitate. The question that always came up was this: How quickly would I be able to bounce back? The trainer would always tell my coaches that he is young, he’ll be able to bounce back. How quickly will depend upon his attitude when it comes to doing what he needs to do to get better. You see although I had a physical issue, my ability to bounce back from it was more about my attitude than anything else. So it doesn’t matter what the situation is that has caused us to be down, it will be our attitude that will allow us to either get back in the game quickly of else out indefinitely.

Time
This second, of this minute, of this hour, of this day will never happen again. Time is a weapon given to us to use to achieve our goals. It is also a gift given to us to share our lives with others. So don’t kill time, use it and watch your dreams come true.
