  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

More words of wisdom!!

    READ THIS VERY SLOWLY...... IT'S PRETTY PROFOUND.

    Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too rigid to depart from their routine.

    I got to thinking one day about all those women on the Titanic who
    passed up dessert at dinner that fateful night in an effort to cut back.
    From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible.

    How many women out there will eat at home because their husband didn't suggest going out to dinner until after something had been thawed? Does the word "refrigeration" mean nothing to you?

    How often have your kids dropped in to talk and sat in silence while you watched 'Jeopardy' on television?

    I cannot count the times I called my sister and said, "How about going to lunch in a half hour?" She would gasp and stammer, "I can't. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known
    yesterday, I had a late breakfast, It looks like rain." And my personal
    favorite: "It's Monday."

    She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together.

    Because Americans cram so much into their lives, we tend to schedule our headaches. We live on a sparse diet of promises we make to ourselves when all the conditions are perfect!

    We'll go back and visit the grandparents when we get Stevie
    toilet-trained. We'll entertain when we replace the living-room carpet.
    We'll go on a second honeymoon when we get two more kids out
    of college.

    Life has a way of accelerating as we get older. The days get shorter,
    and the list of promises to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we
    awaken, and all we have to show for our lives is a litany of
    "I'm going to," "I plan on," and "Someday, when things are settled down a bit."

    When anyone calls my 'seize the moment' friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five
    minutes, and you're ready to trade your bad feet for a pair of
    Rollerblades and skip an elevator for a bungee cord.

    My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. It's
    just that I might as well apply it directly to my stomach with a spatula
    and eliminate the digestive process. The other day, I stopped
    the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy.

    Now...go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to......not
    something on your SHOULD DO list.

    If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could
    make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you
    waiting?

    Make sure you read this to the end; you will understand why I sent this to you.

    Have you ever watched kids playing on a merry go round or listened to the rain lapping on the ground? Ever followed a butterfly's erratic
    flight or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

    Do you run through each day on the fly? When you ask "How are you?" Do you hear the reply?

    When the day is done, do you lie in your bed with the next hundred
    chores running through your head?

    Ever told your child, "We'll do it tomorrow." And in your haste, not see his sorrow?

    Ever lost touch? Let a good friendship die? Just call to say "Hi"?

    When you worry and hurry through your day, It is like an unopened
    gift....Thrown away... Life is not a race. Take it slower. Hear the
    music before the song is over.

    It's National Friendship Week. Show your friends how much you care.

    GSXMEN Got Jesus?

    Afraid we're all guilty of that to one degree or another....:Dou:

    Probably the worst thing anyone could do, is to 'put off' accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior!!! Don't know how many times I've heard where so and so planned on accepting Christ 'tomorrow', or next week...or sometime down the road. Only to find out, that they wouldn't even make it home - TODAY!!!

    None of us is guaranteed tomorrow!

    2 Corinthians 6

    2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

    chryco63 14's or bust!

    So true!

    Scott and Mike,

    That is so true! I believe that there is two things you should never put off:

    1.) If you know that Jesus is Lord and Saviour of your life, accept Him now!!

    2.) If you love someone, or even just like them, tell them now!! Tell them about Jesus, too!

    Amen, guys! Let's all try to apply this to our lives. Let's slow down!
