Starting Slow, Finishing Strong
Persistence is a very good thing. When your day starts out slow you have to keep going. Having a work ethic is one thing but also having patience is helpful too. When you have a daily goal to reach it can get frustrating when things are not happening.
Knowing how and when to make adjustments can help you get to where you want to go. Today I was at less than 50% of my daily goal. After lunch I made adjustments, found a new channel and stayed there to my benefit.
In the movie Galaxy Quest the line “Never Give Up, Never Surrender” has a lot of truth to it. It has eternal wisdom. Whether you are trying to reach your goal or you are fighting for a cause you have to be persistent and learning how to finish strong especially when you start slow.

This is great news for my LGBTQ friends who are having a rough time with the current administration rolling back protections in many areas of life. It’s truly a shame that people who are just living their lives and really bothering no one have to go through the pain of discrimination in any form.
Discrimination Is Hate
Discrimination is a manifestation of hate. The sooner discrimination goes away the better it is for everyone. It’s time that in this society we need to figure out how to bring everyone and I mean everyone to the table. If anyone be denied life, liberty, and happiness then it should be available to no one. Also, some church people need to figure out how to drop their need to have power and control over the lives of people who don’t even believe in God. It’s time you laid down your scripture missiles.
