These Gurus... NO MATTER WHO... bottom line...

THINK ABOUT IT.

These Gurus... NO MATTER WHO... bottom line... seem to be just exactly like each and every one of us on the planet. We all... each and every one... have opinions based upon either fact, fiction or assumption derived from information we receive or discover in the course of each day.

The FACT is... that opinions are just like NOSES... EVERYBODY has one. Interesting isn't it? Visiting these forums - and reading/listening to gurus and member posts... is just like eatin' catfish. I'm learning... "Swallow the meat... and spit out the bones".

Why ruin your day trying to swallow anything that you don't like from such a rich and 'diverse' daily diet of both credible and incredible information?

It certainly can affect us (inside and out). You see, things will tend to be a lot better (for us) when we focus ONLY on what we've found to be nourishing 'meat' rather than attempting to sort out the 'bones' we've found.

And, when we open our mouth/keyboard - we have a choice: 1. RUIN our own, or SOMEONE ELSE'S DAY or
2. ENCOURGE ourself with the 'meat' we discovered that has been confirmed with a deep peace in our spirit.

Which makes more sense? Ruin our own or someone else's day? Or, walk in FAITH and not by SIGHT.

Granted, it may not make sense after some of the stuff we read and hear, but concentrating on the good... the potential and the power and presence of God in this situation... really does "take the load off" of our little red ""worry and irritation" wagon.

oF COURSE... another option may be to simply stay away from fish... and decide to exclude that food source from your lifestyle... for me, that's a bit extreme.

So, cheer up...SMILE...

DO SOMETHING GOOOOOD FOR YOURSELF TODAY... take two (2) Christmas Cookies and a glass of milk... sit back and relax... and you'll feel better in the morning. You have a BIG week ahead of you... so

Have a blessed and prosperous Merry Christmas... with friends and family...

Let's take a couple of days off from concern about those little details we are discovering that we have absolutely no control over.

They'll ALL get along just fine without us... as we focus on HIM and HIS birth... Jesus... King of Kings and Lord of Lords. ... from the heart...

:cheers: Thanks for sharing! Great advice...now, I am going to go and get some milk and cookies!

Thank YOU Ponee... you're a true professional and caring person... and that is what makes this forum such a joy to visit! Have a Merry Christmas... to all ... and to all... a Good NIght!
