Our Problems Are Not A Competition. August 3, 2015. You want to know what? Cecil the Lion, who was poached, life mattered. Great awareness can come from the mob mentality. The mob mentality is when a large group of people get upset about the same thing. It’s what drives so many of us crazy on Facebook. It’s when an event happens and everyone loses their mind. But now it’s not just that everyone loses their mind. Now it’s a competition. How do we know what emotions it will stir? Heck to the no. Post.

Ricky Anderson: The Gift
http://www.rickyanderson.net/2011/11/gift.html
Network Administrator Diaries - The Book! Evan after he's had his coffee. My son, my son. We waited for you for years. We asked God when He would give you to us. He said, "Wait.". We went to the doctor. He said, "If you give me lots of money.". God said, "Not yet.". Your mom wanted to hold you. I wanted to throw a baseball with you. The doctor said, "You can't.". Then came Christmas. That's when we found out you were on your way! I love you. And you remind me of how much my heavenly Father loves me.

Network Administrator Diaries - The Book! This is how I'm convinced every doctor's appointment is going to go:. Me: Doc, what do you think could be causing this weird symptom? Me: Would you care to elaborate? Doc: Something very expensive. Doc: We'll have to run some tests. 3 weeks, 2 blood draws and a series of x-rays later*. Doc: I'm going to have to refer you to my golfing buddy. I mean, a specialist. Me: Oh, dear. What did you find? Me: Can you remove it? Me: Absolutely. Thank you! Links to this post.

Network Administrator Diaries - The Book! Changeup, Chapter 28. Joe leaned on the padded fence off the third base line. It was usually his favorite part of game night, but tonight Joe stared listlessly as the kids ran the bases, shouting exuberantly. What was he thinking? He wasn't trying to buck the system, he was just doing things his way. He didn't want the other owners to fail. He had simply been given the chance of a lifetime and took it. I'm still not happy about this.". Hi, Annette.". Better get o...

Network Administrator Diaries - The Book! Changeup, Chapter 27. It was the top of the 9th. Last game of the season. Two down. The runner on third inched down the line, ready to bolt for home. Joe's knees ached, but the excitement kept his mind focused on the pitch. He signaled low and in, and the pitcher complied. Sharp grounder to short. The runner's cleats kicked up dirt as he flew home. Joe jumped in front of the plate, waiting for the throw. Joe put his head down and ran like his butt was on fire.

Network Administrator Diaries - The Book! It had been a long day. Shopping for hours. This store, then that store. One side of town to the other. Evan had done very well, all things considered. Our last stop of the day was the grocery store. He ran around like an untied balloon. Too much energy pent up for too long. I'm so sorry", I said to her. She stood there for a moment, just staring at my son. I prepared myself for a snide comment or stern admonition. So today, I'm thankful. Links to this post.

The End Of Me. August 12, 2015. I don’t think anyone likes being called selfish. Maybe that’s why we live in denial with just how truly selfish we are. I for one am selfish to the core. It is so easy to make things about me. When you follow selfishness to it’s end you always find destruction. Selfishness puts pleasure over everything. Whenever we have something in our life that we love and hate at the same time it’s a sign of selfishness. Do you ever wake up with regret? Selfishness puts me before we.

I am trying to write down some of the good things that happen each day as a reminder that even on seemingly bad days, life is good. Monday, September 15, 2008. Kneeboarding and Computer Parts. Getting to kneeboard behind Stew and Claire's new jetski! It was a lot of fun and has left me quite sore, and I am looking forward to doing it again :). Playing ultimate with 7 people between church and kneeboarding, including 2 new people who enjoyed it! I hadn't played in at least a month. Seeing at least 6 peopl...
