When danger lurks around you in the night and you pack enough good living to make a good fight till morning. One fart away from total distruction! This is one true statement. Stay in god’s good graces. Say a prayer every night at bed time.
Sometimes I think the getting older is by the

You know what I love about getting older......

embrace getting older. How ever it does beat the alternative.

I do find that I savor and appreciate things more. I try to pause, at things like the HHC, and absorb the fellowship and Blessing. I remember doing that as a kid. One Thanksgiving something came over me. Something told me to see the gathering for what it truly was. I had both sets of Grandparents together and and aunts and uncles, cousins. I went and listened to the old men tell tales, then transitioned to the ladies and listened to them as well. I really enjoyed my family. The very next year three of them were gone, today about 85% are no longer around for me to enjoy. I can only look forward, and I actually do, to the time I will be reunited with them on the other side. As a believer in Christ I have that hope. It's a GOOD thing.
We also have a responsibility, or at least opportunities, to provide education and impress some wisdom, on some level, to the next generation. It can be a Blessing as well. If they will listen.
I try to put some stuff in writing - on paper ..

with the hope that one day those who need it will find it and read it.
Little things ... Life advise ... Such as "Cowboy up and stop being such a pussy! So you got a boo-boo? Big deal. It'll stop bleeding. Wrap a rag around it and carry on!"

"Never hold anger. Forgive the person and move on. Not forgiving and not moving on is like drinking poison with the hope that it will kill the other person.
No. Forgiveness does not mean what they did was OK. It means you let go and trust God to deal with them. They are His problem."

Reeder Custom is not the place for serious stuff unless it is serious stuff like Jim Taylor's post above this, or maybe it is below this. Either way it is serious stuff and like Kamala Jim can be serious especially during one of his serious periods, although that doesn't happen very often as he is usually only serious when he has his cowboy hat on. The rest of the time he is sorta like WB and you can't tell what the hell he is saying. So let's be more like Jim and a lot less like Alcorn Russell. Alcorn isn't serious. It is just because you can't make any sense out of what he just said. Nuff said.
