Yesterday I talked seriously about perspective. Wanting to live in a state of thankfulness and not take life for granted. Here’s another, sillier look at Perspective brought to you by my favorite Internet-tainers, Rhett and Link. Thanks to Perspective, all is not Lost.
Perspective
I am incredibly driven and rarely take time to reflect on accomplishments. I take basic skills for granted. I am not thankful. I am skilled in making small decisions overwhelming. I have trouble with perspective. I learned this about myself in a new way this week by an unlikely tutor: the stomach flu. I was…
End It
Slavery still exists. I wonder how many people know that. And it’s not a little problem. There are more slaves in the world today that at any other time in history. 27 million men, women and children are enslaved. I first heard about this modern day plight at Passion 2012. I learned more of the…
