"Problems"
by DevilsAdvocate_DA in"life is a series of problems".
the problems we face will either defeat us or develop us -- depending on how we respond to them.
unfortunately most of us fail to see how jehovah wants to use problems for good in our lives.

BigRocksFirst
by DevilsAdvocate_DA inone day, an expert in time management was speaking to a group of business students and, to drive home a point, used a illustration those students will never forget.. as he stood in front of the group of high-powered overachievers he said,"okay,.
time for a quiz.
" and he pulled out a one-gallon, wide-mouth mason jar and set it on the table in fornt of him.. he also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar.

by DevilsAdvocate_DA inin view of the thoughts for a day or so i believe, not being judgmental, these thoughts may apply.. for all of us:.
"healing touch".
apologizing is an esseniual skill that adults need to master by practicing over and over (so do jehovah's witnesses no matter what state in life he/she is to jehovah and jesus christ).

"Tis Ones' For Me"
by DevilsAdvocate_DA insome might have heard some of these thoughts, enjoy again, other will learn to appreciate them.. "great truths about growing old".
growing old is mandatory; growing up is opional.. insanity is my only means of relaxaton.. forget the health food.
i need all the preservatives i can get.. i'm getting old when i get the same sensation from a rocking chair, that i once got from a roller coaster.. one of life's mysteries is now a two pound box of candy can make a person gain five pounds.. every time i think about exercise, i lie down till the thought goes away.. god put me on earth to accomplish a certain number of things.
