Quote Of The Day, Tony's Posts

Three Days, Three Quotes

April 2, 2018 Tony Burgess Leave a comment

My fellow blogger Denny challenged me to do a 3 Day, 3 Quote Challenge and I have accepted. If you are a frequent visitor here I do love quotes and have almost 200 or so quotes posted on this blog. I even have a category in the special features menu above where they are curated and collected. I will be posting three new quotes starting today and running through Wednesday. There might even be a bonus quote if the inspiration strikes.

At the end I will nominate 3 fellow bloggers to follow suit. Stay tuned!

About Following This Blog and Who I Follow #blogging #wordpress

March 31, 2018 Tony Burgess 8 Comments

I am a friendly and open person. When it comes to my blog all I want following are real, live people and not any sort of business or brand or any site that just exists to hock their wares. The type of connections I want here are person to person, human to human. Any site that looks like a bot or any sort of SEO thing will be blocked by me. Don’t even bother following if you aren’t an actual human being. My blog is about making two-way conversations and I am not interested in any sort of commercial transactions. So I am picky about who I let follow and I think everyone else should be too.

I have used the Toujours theme before but I wanted it to look the way I wanted. It took me some time to find the CSS coding to make it look the way I wanted but after much research on the web and trial-and-error I have made it mine. The coloring is based upon the college where I got my bachelors degree, Middle Tennessee State University’s school colors which is blue and white. Everything on it is bigger and bolder than I have ever done before. It’s easy to read and use, well at least I think so. Let me know what you think. Feedback is always welcome.

Hello First Day Of Spring

March 20, 2018 Tony Burgess 2 Comments

In the northern hemisphere it’s the first day of Spring. In my part of the world we didn’t have much of a Winter but I know other places got more snow and cold than they wanted. As the seasons change may we hope for good things to come. Love and peace to you all my friends.

The Need For Rest, Renewal

March 11, 2018 Tony Burgess 2 Comments

Most faith traditions call for some form of rest during the week. In my tradition it comes on Sunday. No matter what everyone needs a day or more of rest. Keeping the sabbath is important in order to keep balance in ones life. We live in a hyper-busy world where people are so over scheduled in their work and personal lives.

Everyone is afraid of missing something so they want to do everything. Saying no is hard but necessary. You can only do so many things in a week, month, year. Maybe our priorities need adjusting so our spirits can be recreated for making our lives better and those of others we love.

This is easier said than done. I have a problem with resting and relaxing. Realizing I cannot conquer the world is important to know. No one can conquer the world either.

Without rest and renewal we will find our lives to be very tough.

Good, better, best. Never let it rest. ‘Til your good is better and your better is best. St. Jerome
