Misused Word of the Day

Touch-tone (adjective):
What some people 40 years of age and older call their touchscreen phones...no longer of or relating to a tone-dialing system or a push-button phone operating on tone dialing

WHAT you say, is affected by HOW you say it.

People often ignore those who care about them, while trying to gain the attention of those who don't.

Parenting in the winter is just four straight months of yelling "SHUT THE DOOR!"

Whenever people reject your offers to help & be there for them, they're rejecting blessings from flowing their way.

Things are more like they are today than they ever have been before.

GOD has given each of us a responsibility in three relationships: our relationship with Him; our relationship with others , and our relationship with ourselves. If we don't love or respect GOD & ourselves, we won't be able to love and respect others. We can't give away what we don't have. #Evonika-#fb?
