 It is not what you left behind

Or even what is ahead

It is who is beside you

It is the passion within you

That needs your attention.

Whatever the price

Pay attention

The cost is too high if you do not 

and the dividends are great if you do

Get It Right

 

I had the right to remain silent... but I didn't have the ability.

Ron White

The next time someone says something mean to you

You have the right to remain silent

When someone is rude to you

Yo have the right to remain silent

You have the right to be kind to them in return

You have the right to be patient and gentle

You have the right to be different!

Know your rights!

and that's poetiquejustis

Just What We Do

 

Don't let the things you can't do

get in the way of the things you can do.

John Wooden

There are things we know we must do

to get to where we want to go

and along the way, we find things we can't do

that still need to be done

No problem

Because we know that If we want to get there badly enough 

 We will just find another way

Because that is what we do

and that's poetiquejustis 

With God all things are possible.

Matthew 19:26

Bluster

 

Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.

Leo Buscaglia

Bullies.....

Bluster....

But those who are strong

 can whisper like the wind

and be heard 

spreading peace

That is how you know who is weak

and who is strong

and that's poetiquejustis

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Carrying On to Victory

 

A mind troubled by doubt cannot focus on the course to victory.

Arthur Golden

I know a catering chef  who tells his helpers as they carry trays to the truck;

"Carry one

Or drop two

The same goes for trying to carry around doubt and belief at the same time

One of those guys-

the doubt or the belief-

 has to go.

Carry one or drop two.

A story

I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
