Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Why is it so easy to do the wrong thing and not the good thing? I Believe that many people find it better to promote themselves via a facade than to actually yield to someone else and do the right thing. If y’all have a difficult time doing the right thing, might I suggest going to God in prayer and read the Holy Bible. Many answers and help can be found there to guide and direct y’all to do things right.

You’re welcome Mikel. I will let Linda know when she gets back from the ER. She is experiencing shortness of breath and fluid retention. On a side note, I don’t know if you saw my other postings but I feel most of them are relevant to your Motivational post this day. Have a blessed rest of your day my friend.

Learning to do the right thing is something that should start at a very young age. If that foundation doesn't exist the concept of automatically doing the right thing will be an entirely foreign thing in your adult years.

My reminders of doing the right thing were overboard, as far as I’m concerned. Too many welts to the face, neck and back, but I guess I must’ve needed it. Blessings.
