A Smoky Mountain hi 

‪May you bring a breath of fresh air when you come not when you go!‬

‪It is part of your responsibility to recognize how you affect others, for good or for ill. Are you wearing them down or building them up?‬

‪Always be aware that everyone you meet is already carrying their own burden.‬ it is your choice to lighten it or add to it. 


‪Parents must discipline and train while, grandparents are there to help grandchildren to love and feel accepted.‬

‪Parents often must error on the side of discipline, grandparents tend to error on the side of mercy. ‬

‪Parenting and grandpareting work best when everyone is on the same wavelength. ‬

‪Forgive all you can then ask God for the strength to forgive all that is left. ‬

‪You will never know who you are or what freedom feels like, until you forgive someone you really hated. ‬

‪Forgiveness is for you to be relieved of the burdens of hate. It does not release the offender from their burden at all.‬

‪Part of the human experience is to make mistakes, another part of the human experience is to apologize and do your best to make things right. ‬

‪Repentance without change is a bad apology. ‬

‪Dwell on what good others have done to you, not what good you did for another ‬

‪Telling the truth provides you with the best memory!‬
