Just Do It!

By Kay Heitsch on September 16, 2016 / 1,946 views

By Kay Heitsch on September 16, 2016 / 1,946 views

When I read today's quote, "Don't let your doubts sabotage your actions. Just do it!" I thought about a true story I wrote years ago. What happened by 'taking action' and 'just doing it' changed my thinking from that day until now. One morning I was sitting on the couch doing my daily Bible study. Out of no where I had a thought to go to the corn stand at the...

A Former Navy SEAL On Never Quitting

By Andy Stumpf on September 15, 2016 / 3,200 views

Everyone wants to be a Frogman on Friday. One of my favorite quotes from the Teams, because it applies to everyone and every goal. To use SEAL training as an example, 80-85 percent don't see the third day of hell week, let alone the last day of training. It takes a lot of work to even show up for day one, but it doesn't take much to end it. All you have to do is say "I quit", ring the bell in...

Your Remedy Is Within You

By Imam Ali on September 13, 2016 / 1,676 views

Your remedy is within you, but you do not sense it. Your sickness is from you, but you do not perceive it. You presume you are a small entity, but within you is enfolded the entire Universe. You are indeed the Evident Book, by whose alphabet the Hidden becomes Manifest. Therefore you have no need to look beyond yourself. What you seek is within you, if only you...

You have stormy day and sunny day, anyway you smile at both. You have days of impoverishment and abundance, anyway you smile at both. You have days of disappointment and encouragement, anyway you smile at both. You have days of failures and success, anyway you smile at both. You have days of criticism and appreciation, anyway you smile at both. You have...

All Tied Up In The Kitchen

Three months ago I experienced a horrific ordeal that I hope has left me a better person. I'm 32, mother of two girls 7 and 9. My husband and our kids are a loving family, we live in a beautiful upscale community and are happy, contented. I've always felt blessed and maybe a little spoiled. I'm intelligent, very attractive, physically fit, competent but I've always assumed everything would...

Give It Your Best

I have been trying to fix up my old house this Summer. The work I was able to hire people to help me with looks pretty good. The work I tried to do myself, not so much. The tiles aren’t lined up right. The caulk is messy. The screws are crooked. The nails are bent. One of the door knobs is broken. And the dogs are sliding into the walls every time they run across the new rugs because I didn’t...

I have been blessed with many good people around. One of them is my husband, Joshua. A few years ago, I was forced to quit my teaching job due to poor health. Staying at home, I felt down and useless. Joshua sensed my confidence faded little by little. One summer afternoon, he went home carrying a small-sized school white board, sweetly said to me, “You can do it again. You are a good teacher. Remember...

The day my wife Cindy died was the darkest day of my life. She died from a very aggressive breast cancer. I lost my faith, and I was angry at God for taking her from me. It's been 12 years since she passed away, everyday has been a struggle. I'ld like to say that things got easier, of course they didn't, that wasn't God's plan for me. I still don't know what that could be and I'm...

The Dilemma

By Rick on September 07, 2016 / 0 views

By Rick on September 07, 2016 / 0 views

To lie or not to lie. Telling the truth sucks compared to the benefits of lies. We learn this as mere babes. "The dog ate the cookie. Not me, Mom," kinda stuff. And it gets far more serious later in life. But we all have to make the choice. Every day the dilemma presents itself. For some it seems there is no dilemma at all. Lying gets easier. Some become masters. Others struggle each day to do what...

Fluffy

Recently a kind lady found a six week old puppy abandoned in her driveway. It was skin and bones, covered in fleas, and close to death. It was beyond belief how anyone could do this to a little, baby dog. This wonderful woman, though, rescued this tiny, white ball of fluff, took him in and bathed him a long time to kill the fleas. Then unable to raise him herself she put a notice on Facebook trying to find him...

A huge applause echoed in the huge carpeted and Corinthian room as Jane, the most celebrated female model of the city gracefully walked along the pathway. Shoulder length bronze hair, fair complexion emblazoned with a broad smile was Jane, the guest of honour waving her thin, long-fingered hand to the group of admirers at her sight. The sound of applause dwindled in the vestibule at the beginning of...

"Never stop BELIEVING because MIRACLES happen everyday!" Has God ever asked you to do something you thought was ridicules? Around six months after our son Todd's death, our younger son Brandon (then almost three) began stuttering. You see, Brandon and I went for a walk each night, and about this time we saw a dead, decaying bird lying on the side of the road. Brandon...

I was looking through some old photo albums the other day. I had already looked through them many times before but I felt a sudden urge to see those old pictures again. I found myself reliving so many beautiful memories from my childhood. There was my dear Nana giving me a bath when I was a baby. There was me and my brother standing in front of the world's ugliest Christmas tree. There was my first dog:...

School Supplies

By Leland Michael on August 31, 2016 / 0 views

I was feeling pretty jaded this morning as two different sets of parents at Walmart stopped me in the school supplies aisle to complain about how much they had to get their kids this year. 'This is just ridiculous, I don't know how these teachers think we are suppose to get all this stuff.' As they complained, they seemed to be oblivious to the fact that my cart was filled with a class...

Me and my daughter just popped to our local Spar in Twydall Gillingham to get some snack food for our film day. As usual my daughter helped me by pushing the trolley, placing our shopping on the counter, packing it in the bag for me and using my bank card to pay as I couldn't reach the card machine, just a normal trip to the shops apart from one thing was different for us today! We went to leave...

A kind lady in the neighborhood has set up a "Po-Go Puppy Water Station" to keep all the Pokemon Go dogs hydrated while their owners roam the area with their noses glued to their screens. There are two containers of water in a chilled bag next to a bowl. The sign reads: "Po-Go Puppy Water Station ~ Fresh filtered water ~ Removed nightly at 11:00...
