Musings: Making an Effort

Today I rode my exercise bike while refereeing the older two at the sand table and holding a sleeping infant. You can't say I'm not trying!

Quotable

"My mind is expert at taking one negative and ballooning it into many until I have enough balloons to throw a pity party."

"A woman would do well to understand that an honest, faithful husband who goes on a three-week hunting (fishing) trip is not telling her he doesn't love her. He just wants to kill something. Nothing more complicated than that."

"(God's) ideal is a man who, having worked all day for the good of posterity, washes his mind of the whole subject, commits he issue to Heaven, and returns at once to the patience or gratitude demanded by the moment that is passing over him. "

"A woman must love as though she's never been hurt (disappointed) before or she will destroy today."

"A contract is based on mutual distrust; a covenant is based on mutual trust."

"Meekness flows from the confidence that God is in control and therefore I am not."

" You do not "fall in love" any more than you fall into a mortgage. Consequently, you also do not fall out of either one. Love is a choice."

"When you come up against a wall in life you can hold on to your fearful thoughts and quit or you can hold on to the truth, push through, and be stronger for it (paraphrase mine)."
