Should Have

"SHOULD HAVE"
I remember a quote that I heard as a child. It said - "Live life with no regrets." Now that I am 37 years old - i am beginnning to understand the value of that quote. About two weeks ago i lost my brother who was only 42. Needless to say it seemed like an untimly death. Over that past several days I have caught my seld saying - "I should have" more times than I can count. I am trying to make a resolve, with the help of God, to live the rest of my years with no regrets. I do not want to say "I should have" again. Now that is a long shot resolve, but it is something that I want to try. So, I challange anyone who takes the time to read this blog - to say - I did, instead I should have. Will we fail? Yep! We we succeed, Yep! - Now is the time, not tomorrow - because tomorrow is always the wanted company of the enemy called - "I should Have" Just a thought...........

GO TO LOWES

Has any one ever ticked you off? Really. i mean to the point that it took everything with in you not to slap the mess out of them. LOL yep, me to. It happened this week. It was simple - wanna know what happened? Well, a dude gave me a friendly "wave" when I almost pulled out in front of him. I found my self about to take a right hand turn and chase him down (and believe me my lil 4 cylnd. Pontiac Vibe would have caught the hand signer!!) Then as i thought about it this evening I am remined of a phrase that I heard. I had two choices. 1. Chase the dude down, pull him out of his car and beat him up. But, i just dont think that is what jesus would do, ya think? Any way the other choice is to just get over it and drive the other way. Think about it. Life and death are in the power of the tongue (or fist, gun, knife or other weapons). The phrase that came to my mind was this, "Go to Lowes, but a ladder and get over it". Yep, thats it. So, I had to , in a metaphore, go to lowes buy the ladder and just get over it. Just a thought...............
