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

Planning is the second hardest thing you do, making it happen is the hardest.

Plan your time or your time will plan for you.

Don’t let things happen, make them happen.

Doing right often takes a greater effort than doing wrong.

Mercy is harder to give than to receive.

Mercy has few friends and many enemies.

Mercy is what we pray for after we are caught.

Without mercy no one survives.

Mercy and power are in a continuing battle.

Spousal abuse is a personal moral failure. It is where character is sacrificed and then slaughtered, on the altar of selfishness and anger.

Learn to passionately pursue God’s plan for your life.

Spare nothing to do the “right things”.

Where your heart is passion resides it abundance.

The more you pursue Jesus the further behind self will fall.  (He must increase and I must decrease.)

The White House Correspondents Dinner is where words were treasured, not by their validity, but by the amount of pain they inflicted.  While good folks did or said nothing.

Diversity and divisiveness have become strange bedfellows; rather than being celebrated as special, they are now being used to prosper hate.

When people are determined to do wrong, etiquette and integrity are no longer a hindrance.

Your decision are, to great degree, predestined by your values.

It is hard to determine who has committed a greater wrong; the one who slanders someone chooses to stand by and listen to them, without doing or saying something to protest the slander or to stop it.
