What my mom and grandma used to say

A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him. ~ David Brinkley The above reminds me of something my mom and grandma always said which was if your given lemons make lemonade. I often find true inspiration when I remember all those wise quotes my family members have restated, the original authors would be proud to know there words have traveled many miles throughout the years. Do you have some wise quotes that you would like to share; would love to hear from you enjoy the remainder of your evening. Tomorrow is a new day with new challenges.

Living My Life Like It's Golden

Living My Life Like Its Golden back in August 2004 Jill Scott came out with a song living my life like it's golden.  What was the artist true meaning behind the lyrics especially the chourus  "I'm holding on to my freedom, Can't take it from me, I was born into it, It comes naturally, I'm strumming my own freedom, Playing the god in me, Representing his glory, Hope he's proud of me," My thoughts are that she knew that during everyone's life they experience some bumps and bruises but you have to live thru it and move on and remember no one can steal your joy or happiness they only have the power if you give it to them. So as you encounter turmoil and strife remember Jill Scott's song Living My Life Like It's Golden and push past the issue :-)

There are so many people in this world that would love to see you fail but I just have to remember to keep my eyes on the true prize which is what God has in store for me. "It is an honor for a man to cease from strife" Proverbs 20:3, KJV I take this to mean don't allow others to shift your focus on the true Giant you must fight.....
