HARD TIMES BY RUN DMC WITH LYRICS.
Interesting quotes today. I chose "People pretend not to like grapes when the vines are too high for them to reach." ― Marguerite de Navarre. How many times do we state something long these lines on things we are having problems with or can't solve? Thanks for always making us think COL Mikel J. Burroughs. Happy Hump Day to you and yours.

Good afternoon my friend and brother-in-Christ Maj Marty Hogan and thank you for sharing Hard Times by RUN DMC.
Heavenly Father I pray that YOU will give each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters a clear focus on what is important for this life and eternity. Help us to be less self-centered and to be mindful of our family, coworkers, subordinates and the strangers YOU bring into our path.
We each need help avoid the trap of having our time and energy consumed in unnecessary distractions. Give us wisdom and discernment to improve our relationship with YOU so that we can better be a friend as we love of those around us. Help us to love as we are loved by YOU.
In YOU all things are possible. Help us to strive to achieve what is good, noble and true. In the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

MSgt Dale Johnson Painfully true! And... neither could we be of help to others as they struggle. Troubles are dual-purpose, I guess?

"Great Achievement Day"
"Always strive to achieve your greatest, If that is your standard then you will always start above the bar"
Again I like yours today....a bit wordy (LOL) but the message is clear and true as always:

You must have courage to maneuver the path, jump over the holes, and conquer your fears in order to achieve your goals. That's why they call it "Hump Day!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
"Flow like a River" You never know which way it will take you so make sure you are ready for anything...! You are a River, I now someone else too....Good morning to your lovely Bella and Mom.
Rock the Day Brother....
