Default Several Thoughts On Easter And Posting!

Before posting, I usually have several thoughts, and or guidelines that I follow.

1. Am I saying, what I am trying, to convey? Is it clear?

2. Will anyone be offended, by what I post? If I have any doubts, I will not post, as I will feel bad, and I don't want to, "feel bad".

3. I always remember the story about an angry Abraham Lincoln, when he wrote a letter to a general, wanting to reproach him, for his inaction, in not attacking his opponent. Since he wrote the letter in anger, he decide to put it in his drawer for review, the next day, to see if he felt, the same way. Upon awakening the next day, he was informed the general had attacked his opponent. I never make decisions when I am angry, but wait until my personal storm passes, and I can think clearly, and reasonably again.

4. Forgiveness is a wonderful quality to have , as you feel more at peace with yourself. Always remember, "forgive them father, for they know not, what they do"

If you say you can't forgive them, give them to GOD and let go.

I hope these thoughts make TOTV, a more friendly place as we should, "Love one another as I have loved you".

Nuff said..... off soapbox...... over and out.
