Ecclesiastes 10

19 A feast is made for laughter,
    wine makes life merry,
    and money is the answer for everything.


EEEHHHH......what?!  Money is the answer for everything?  To me, money is like salt-water.  The more you have, the more you need.  The more you have, the more you think about it.  Mo money....mo problems!

4  If a ruler’s anger rises against you,
    do not leave your post;
    calmness can lay great offenses to rest.


I like this verse in reference to my job.  I'm in a position where there can be real high-stake political stuff.  It's a virtual land-mine field.  But, I find I do much better if I stay relatively quiet, and calm.  I've even been told that I'm cool under fire......not really, I'm just trying to not move so much that I become a target.  hahah

have a good weekend

  1. Sorry I'm not quite out of the firestorm here then trying to mix in vacation is making me very inconsistent. It will be a few more weeks before I think I'll get more consistent.

    v4 was the one I also picked today, also thinking about work. Another one that is in my head is slow to speak quick to listen. I'm also trying not to be a target and also recognizing I need to listen to other opinions and not be a know it all.'
