"Loose lips sink ships..." an oldie but a goodie..Now if folks would just get ahold of this and realize the impact their words have on others. I am fastly approaching 30 years of age and find it annoying to say the least that folks find enjoyment, fulfillment, pleasure and satisfaction in gossip. I mean seriously, what benefit does really come from it? Oh wait the benefit of not having to be reminded that their junk smells or perhaps that they even have junk in their trunk they need to deal with. I mean seriously GROW UP!
It doesn't offend me that my name is being broadcasted by the mouths of many 'haters' or 'liars' but what does bother me is that these folks DO NOT know me..they haven't even spent time with me to allow the foolish utterings to be true. They are speaking from the garbage can they call a heart because of some deep seeded issue they have yet dealt with in their life. Which saddens me really. Because I know what it is like to have issues so deeply rooted that it affects me and others. However, I have gotten them removed and have changed the behavior those rooted issues have caused. Does that make me better than these folks...NO....JUST sets me up to be an expert in this area to help them become one too! Psalm 101:5 is I guess where I am coming from on this topic (as in Bibical foundation).
I went to the gym today and did a cardio workout...I am hoping to have the money for a personal trainer starting next week so that I can get to the weight lifting so I can tone and firm...but til then I will do what I can on my own and focus on keeping a positive mindset on this new adventure.
Well I must now go grab lunch and venture off to work where I will sit til 10:30pm again and then head home to be back to work at 6:30am til 5:30pm...Oh how I love to make money...lol well just have the needs met and the desires fulfilled that is!
Until next time let me challenge you with this....
What you say has the power to affect others...So How are you affecting others? Positive speech will result in positive affects and negative speech affects people to the core of their being and will last longer than positive, so start speaking positively about folks and to them and see yourself grow!
Oh and beware of the emotional vampires who will bleed you dry!
We have a moto in this house "Positive thoughts lead to positive results". Corny as it is, I am reminded everyday because the words scroll as my scren saver, and when the time comes, will probably be inscribed in my wedding band. And, regardless of my own personal spiritual beliefs, living good "Karma" has always served me well.
ReplyDeleteOh, and the work thing... in my 20's I "lived to work" 6 days a week. In my 30"s I am "working to live" 6 days a week. I have found the latter much more enjoyable.
I like the idea of having something enscribed in the bands...or even on the outside of them...that is cool! Makes them more personalized!
