Be Humble, The Rest Will Speak For Itself

In the Gospel of Luke, it says all who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be exalted. That is a lesson for everyone, whether they are a believer or not. I think it’s better to be humble and allow your heart and soul to speak for itself, rather than having a fall from grace because you think you are better than anyone else.

We need to see more acts of humility, kindness, service, and love. The culture is feeding on people who brag and think they are better because of wealth, social status, and power. Humility is power if you think about it. Every Easter in many churches, the act of foot washing is an example of what it means to do something good for others.

The Pope is saying there needs to be more acts of service to others. I can dig that. I do my best to be of service. We need more servants because too many people are trying to be in charge. Everyone talks about leadership when we need servanthood. My goal is to be a servant who doesn’t always get it right on the first try. I hope you will adopt that way of living too.

Be humble, it’s a better look for everyone involved.

Thought Of The Day 10242025

Patriotism is NOT about the biggest flags and waving them in a parade. It’s about being sure your friends and neighbors are taken care of. It’s about not doing harm to those who already are on the fringes of life. Furthermore, it’s about respecting people for who they are and who they want to be.

Being a patriot means being friends with countries around the world and respecting their sovereignty. It means elevating all citizens to a place where they feel secure, safe, and truly free. Life, liberty, happiness are universal concepts that are at the heart of what patriotism should aspire to be, anything less is just putting on a performance.

RIP Microsoft Windows 10

Today is the end of life for the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system. After today there will no longer be updates sent out unless you buy extended service programs.

Upgrades to Windows 11 are available to compatible computers.

Windows 10 Ends On October 14, 2025

Those who don’t have machines that will run Windows 11 will have to buy a new computer or use open source operating systems like Linux Mint to keep their systems from becoming unusable. I do recommend Linux for those with some experience. Thank you Windows 10 for your service.

Quote Of The Day

You never lose by being kind. You only lose when you forget to be.

Me, A Grown Up?

Daily writing prompt
When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

I am fifty-six years old, and some days I feel every year of it. My personality is like that of a big kid in many ways. However, life has called upon me to have situational maturity in times when needed.

I think getting married, buying a house, paying bills, going to the doctor are times when you have to put on your big boy pants on. Also, being burned out of your home and helping walk a parent through their death is super important.

So to answer the question, there have been many times along with that first time which I can’t pinpoint as to being a grown up. Being grown up can suck, I must say.
