A Smoky Mountain HI

Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

The Old Testament reminds us  by the statement ”Why changeth thy thou ways in order to seek love?"

Pride is one of the biggest “game changers” in life.

Pride leads more to shame than fame.

The more you love yourself the less you love others.

Pride causes the imbalance between want and desire.

Whatever you love more than God; God hates.

The child of pride is selfishness. 

A Christian had much more right to thankfulness than pride.

One must hold a funeral for humility in order to crown pride.

The trouble with climbing the latter of success, is that too often we forget,
 we needed to step on someone else’s shoulders to move up.

Pride in others is more tolerable, than self-indulgence.

You can only do what you do, because of what someone else has done.

It is only through the Grace of God that you even get another breath.

If you are on top, look down, to see who is helping you.

It is the helping hand that is ultimately honored.

To be better than someone else is vanity; but to be better than you were is victory!
