Wednesday Coffee Talk

Good Wednesday morning ya'll. We've gotta get up and get going. Things to be done and jobs to show up to. Whether we want to or not, they pay the bills though, RIGHT? Thank God for them and the ability we have to do them. Our challenge today is to realize that this old world is not all about us. There are others out there that need our attention to. Respect them by paying them attention and giving them their due. If all we talk about is "us" and what we do or are doing then something is wrong. We are focused too much on "us'. I love for people to hear about me and my goings on, but if that is steadily all I talk about, then my focus is off. I should talk about you, your concerns, your needs. You as my friend should be able to talk to me and I should be able to listen and focus on you and your need. It's not all about me. It's not all about us. It's about all of us in a natural balance. It's about our new life! It's about God that gave us or led us to WLS! I thank HIM for this WLS! In all actuality, IT IS ALL ABOUT GOD!!! So, who's up this morning? What cha sipping on? Me? MAN OH MAN! Harry and David got it going on this morning! It's some awesome Caramel Pecan with sweet-n-low and double creamer! Ya'd just have to come sip a cup with me! I'd love that! God bless each of you today and be blessed in all you do, say, touch and think. From my book of "Indulgences" by Carmen and John........ You are like a cup of plain coffee...... nothing added to the brew...... You don't need to bring anything But yourself to the relationship And I am happy...... Randall

Good am Randall, I LOVE these posts! I could say that a gazillion times! You are right! Its not all about "us" but its paying it forward and helping others each and every day. Its amazing to me how helping others in turn helps ourselves and the benefits and rewards are worth it! I'm up ....well I'm getting there. I've managed my shower and sipping on my 7-11 10/10 already brought to ME fresh which is a blessing. Seems those around me have been fighting a funky tummy virus so I've been arming me with vits, lots of fluids and eating a bit blander just in case. Those things are harsh. So, my lil' buggas were up quite a bit last pm. The oldest hacking up and then the youngest and now both are just bout bouncing off the walls. My hubs was sick all day and the night before and ugh! Hopefully its GONE now! So, say some prayers for me on that subject. Have a fabulous day!

Max Lucado has a great book out called, "It's Not About Me." It discusses the importance of where our focus is. Thanks for the reminder. Hugs, Trish

Nothing to do with coffee talk but Trish I'm lovin' your new picture. You're looking mighty good! Karen

Thanks. I got the photo this week from my daughter. It was taken at her baby shower in April. I put a bunch of photos on my page today. Check them out. They include my kids and family. Hugs, Trish
