Brad Ruggles, who potentially has the coolest blog site design I’ve ever seen, will be writing today – eventually – at some point. I’m gonna send y’all there now – hoping his post is up.
(Brad, you did remember to post today, didn’t you?)
(Hi. I’m writing this 3 days in advance. YIKES!)
(Yes, that nifty image is from his site – you can download free wallpapers there!)
I got an email last Friday telling the following story:
This morning my very wise coworker and I were talking and she mentioned the scripture where God says to those that are given much…
She was talking about as Americans we are given much so we should be Doing something. So I was telling her about your blog and how your theme is Doing and
She was like “What is she doing to make the world a better place?”
And I smiled as I said well… this morning she put up a video about how she introduced a friend from Ireland how to dip cookies into milk.
It was hilarious how that conversation played out!
LOL!!!!!
Are y’all getting it? That this is more about real DOing, and less about cookies?
Tell me: Are you DOing anything? Are any real DOings being added to your life?
Sister, there were people who went to sleep last night, poor and rich and white and black, but they will never wake again. And those dead folks would give anything at all for just five minutes of this weather or ten minutes of plowing. So you watch yourself about complaining. What you’re supposed to do when you don’t like a thing is change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.

Thanks, Tracie.
