True Colors

I Love Senior Citizens

In the last 2 years since I started the business, I have more free time during the daytime, and love to run errands during that time when its not so crowded. The grocery store is a completely different place at 11:00 on tuesday than at 5:00 on a weeknight. Its like there is this whole culture of people that you never see. These people are not in a hurry, they have time to touch and smell all the produce, they have time to use coupons, they have time to enjoy the free samples. I didn't even know grocery stores gave free samples anymore! I've been asked several times to help get something off a top shelf, or do you know where such and such is? These people are much friendier, there not in a rush to get home to get supper on the table so they can rush off to do something else, how refreshing.

Transponder

Thanks to Friends we have always used this word to describe someone who has a job, and no one knows what they do even after you ask them. Such as Dane, however I recently came across this definition. Transponder- a radio or radar device which, on reciving a signal, transmits a signal of its own. (transmitter responder.) ....... I still don't know what you do Dane?

Getting Directions

Love from the center of who you are: don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.

Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality.

Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down. Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody.

Don't hit back; discover beauty in everyone. If you've got it in you, get along with everybody. Don't insist on getting even; that's not for you to do. "I'll do the judging," says God. "I'll take care of it."

Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he's thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness. Don't let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good. Romans 12:9-21
