Good Saturday morning Colonel.
People are the reason for every success, or failure, there is. Leaders are only as successful as the people around them and great leaders allow those people to grow.
Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Loving people can be one of the most difficult things, yet that is exactly what God tells us to do. If someone does you wrong, pray for them and be kind to them and you just may make a friend. Have a blessed day today and always.
