My mother was a very strong and independent women – as her mother before her.
They both grew up in downtown Pensacola in a time when you had to be tough – or simply go home. I used to laugh at how independent and stubborn they were – only to find myself the same exact way.
So yes – we need to think for ourselves.
Even though it may seem easy at first to go along with the crowd – I’m here to tell you – it’s not easy at all. It can and will lead us down all the wrong roads if we’re not careful – and trust me – we can find those roads all on our own with little or no help from the outside world.
We are blessed people. God has given each of us a good mind and we need to use it – we need to be independent thinkers who choose simple values over schooled arguments – we need to choose the company in which we keep, and yes – we need to spend our energies on what’s really important to us.
Ignorance can be costly – and we need to educate ourselves on the issues surrounding us – so that yes – we can have a knowledgeable opinion and make wiser decisions,
“Our lives are what our thoughts make it”
We can choose only those things that inform and contribute to the higher quality of life He wants for each of us – for yes – we are a strong people who believe in God – believe there is good in this world – and – we believe in ourselves.
Afterall – we are made in His image – according to His likeness.
We are loved by love Himself. He loves us big and He loves us strong, and yes – love wins period
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Philippians 4:8
