We live in a society of negativity where you make yourself feel better by tearing someone or something down... God's second commandment: 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a]38 This is the first and greatest commandment.39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.

Two types of voices command your attention today. Negative ones fill your mind with doubt, bitterness, and fear. Positive ones purvey hope and strength. Which one will you choose to heed?

” Max Lucado

You used it, but this quote is too good to not be repeated! Guess I've been lucky, I've had a few bad leaders but at least they really weren't negative about things.

There are no top influences anymore, all points were gone and reset to zero. The admins act like they are surprised and are working on it to restore them. Not happening yet though.
