Tuesday Words

Hiking in the Smokies. It will show you how out of shape you really are. This trail led to a beautiful water fall and I was accompanied by my wife and daughter, we all enjoyed it, the views, the flowers and especially the falls. But at the end we were glad to see the car and a chance to catch a breather.

Stern tasks can be handled if you work together. Depend on and help one another, assure each other the effort is worth the reward and listen to the needs of those you are with. In short depend on each other and respect those you are on the journey with.

Mr. president and congress maybe you should take a little hike in the mountains. Then you might realize the easy way to accomplish a task is to use all the assets at hand. You might try listening twice as much as you talk and depend on each other a little more, after all you weren't sent to Washington to single handily solve the world's problems but to represent the good of the people you are supposed to serve. My mother always used to say, "God gave you two ears and one mouth young man, you should at least listen twice as much as you speak." I have found this to be good advice at home and on the job.
