- Go to No matter how small, acknowledge the achievement – Greg Henry Quinn
I love the attitude reflected in your writing - belief is the beginning of all achievement.
I also loved your post about the little boy, Grandma and the cake - I haven't heard that analogy before
And thanks for your encouragement - I appreciate it!

I believe that life, with its ups and downs, is the big picture -- a testing ground, boot camp, where we learn what is true, and just, and good. Thank you for sharing such and insightful post. Peace, blessings and understanding.

Individually, isolatedtly, things may appear yucky, and that they are necessarily given by God to make you in the end lucky, is so simply brought to our understanding in its innate profundity. "Keep trying", is another wonderful message.

Excellent advice. When things don't go the way I hope, I look to see what I am missing. It usually is something the Lord wants me to accomplish for Him and thus I don't look at things in a bad light as often. sam
