Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody. 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is a great accomplishment . . ." Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Do not part with your dreams or aspirations for when they are gone you will exist, but you have ceased to live." Henry David Thoreau
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
Everyone - have a blessed Sunday, and enjoy your weekend. From Fayette Co KY.

The first one rings true for me. I surely have lead a quiet life. I've always worked with my hands and tried to mind my own business. Not to be dependent on anyone? hmmm. Don't think I'm quite there, yet. Have a blessed day.
