Truth

What a world this would be if we could
forget our troubles as easily as
we forget our blessings

One Step at a Time

Never regret a day in your life.

Good days give you happiness; bad days give you experiences; both are essential to life.

"LOVE"

Life Is A Gift
Today before you think of saying an unkind word

Think of someone who can't speak.

Before you complain about the taste of your food

Think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Before you complain about your husband or wife

Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion.

Today before you complain about life

Think of someone who went too early to heaven.

Before you complain about your children

Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house,

someone didn't clean or sweep

Think of the people who are living in the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive

Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job

Think of the unemployed, the disabled and those

who wished they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another

Remember that not one of us is without sin

and we all answer to one maker.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down

Put a smile on your face and thank God

you're alive and still around.

Life is a gift...

Live it

Enjoy it

Celebrate it

EMBRACE IT

And fulfill it

And while you are at it give love to someone today

Love someone with what you do and the words you say

Love is not meant to be kept locked inside of us and hidden

So give it away "Give Love to someone today!"

Noah is one year old!

Noah had his 1st birthday yesterday on Jan. 13, 2007. Hopefully he will be in Gadsden soon so we can have a big bash and celebrate with him!

A Big Hello & Happy New Year

Hello everyone (if anyone still visits here), I have missed blogging for a while now, due to a little of everything I guess. There have been several happenings in the last few months and I'm sorry that I've not kept you posted. I can't hardly believe that we are beginning week 3 of 2007. Hopefully I'll get back at it again soon! Please keep coming back....Thanks, Sherry

Noah at 9 months

I've been in Memphis a lot lately keeping Noah, that very special grandson of ours. Here are just a few pics to let you know how much he has grown and what he looks like now. I apologize for neglecting my blog for awhile, I'll try to get back to regular posting about all of our events.

FRIEND

A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

Happenings By Sherry

The moment you can make a very simple discovery; that obligation to God is your privilege, and is not imposed as a burden, your experience will teach you many things, -that duty is liberty, that repentance is a release from sorrow, that sacrifice is gain, that humility is dignity, that the truth from which you hide is a healing element that bathes your disordered life, and that even the penalties and terrors of God are the artillery only of protection to His realm.
Horace Bushnell

Remember.....

Direction is a compass that keeps us on a true course and helps us to reach our goals in the short-term and long-term. By having direction in small projects, major goals, and life, we develop the ability to direct our energies and activities towards those things that are meaningful an purposeful. Stay on course, it is the best way, of course.
