Thought For The Day

[mountainlion20032003]

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous. They are always getting into trouble and their parents know if any mischief occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved.
The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually.
The mother sent the 8 year old in the morning, with the older boy to see the preacher in the afternoon. The preacher, a huge man with a deep booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Do you know where God is, son?"
The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.
So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is God?! Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "WHERE is GOD?!"
The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked,"What happened?"
The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in BIG trouble this time!"
"GOD is missing, and they think WE did it!"

You have not only the right but the duty to be happy and successful.

Before I say my thought
I would like to dedicate it to someone
someone who has never heard of this site
yet will never post on it
they won't see my posts at all

They are a close friend
a close friend that I would never call "friend"
since I consider them my relative
They had pain back sometime ago
it became cancer that got misdruged
they passed away
I went to their funeral and did a tribute last year

I would like to say that they have somewhat inspired this
and during my vacation would be responsible for the rest

With that said
I go to my thought
one that I value with great value

Pitiful
I have never seen it in the dictionary
yet I know its meaning
I said that there were many pitiful things during the trip
the wait at the border
gas
construction
stupid drivers
back stabbing people
the list could go on
but I am stopping it there

I said that word many times
I said it so many times I lost my meaning of it
I saw it was a word that didn't exist
After saying it so many times, it seemed pointless to keep speaking it
It seems that I failed to see the positiveness from things
I failed to see the lessons
Until now

Life can be full of "pitiful" things
But, there are some positive things from it
yeah
this world seems like it is going to mess itself over
but that means that a greater lesson is going to be learned
so that things don't repeat themselves

Sorry, but I couldn't resist this one!

When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food, and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies with yourself.
