This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Joy versus misery
I am very fortunate to work in a job where the huge majority of customers are friendly and appreciative of what I do for them. Maybe once a week there will come along a miserable soul, who wants to make me miserable, too. When I first was hired to do the job, I would let that person ruin my next hour or too. Not any more. Now I recognize right away that this person's misery is the result of choices he/she is making. I do not have to get sucked in to his/her misery. Not even for a few seconds.
