We have done our best to nurture and teach, and I am proud to say our own have all turned out wonderful. What troubles me, however, is the young mother I mentioned a week ago. She barely got her fingers slapped, so now, continues to evade responsibility. My poor 7 yr. old grandson is caught in the middle. THAT breaks my heart. All we can do now, is continue to keep him and his mom, in our prayers. Like I said before, with God's help, perhaps my GS can finally come live with his Daddy. That little fella is already More Responsible than his mother. We would like to take some credit for that. A very thought-provoking entry, my friend.<br />BlessYouDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-61597779940879504982010-04-19T18:05:38.664-04:002010-04-19T18:05:38.664-04:00I'm sure you opened up a few eyes and ears wit...I'm sure you opened up a few eyes and ears with this excellent Post.<br /><br />I've been busy with relatives visiting so I have not been on the computer for awhile.<br /><br />I always disliked the bullies in school and I've even seen bullies as adults........people with no respect for their families and neighbors.........sad that we have such mean humanes out there. I get upset just listening to the News at night.<br /><br />Be well my friends,<br />Hugs, RoseRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718940729278446028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-56685274284357250492010-04-19T09:40:10.133-04:002010-04-19T09:40:10.133-04:00Responsible - what a huge word to try and get my m...Responsible - what a huge word to try and get my mind wrapped around so early in the morning. Personal responsibility is a concept I believe in. I always go to Ezekiel 18 when I think of it. I once read that entire chapter to a church in lieu of a sermon - where I knew there were many accusations against one another in the congregation. It was effective in causing some to see themselves.Fred Altonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12740055638280779519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-38728936216266845452010-04-18T22:48:57.084-04:002010-04-18T22:48:57.084-04:00It is sad when children grown up in an

WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN MORE LIKE HIM, EXCEPT I WAS NOT AN ALCOHOLIC DRINKER. THE FRIEND'S NAME WAS BAILEY AND WE ADDRESSED HIM AS 'BALES'.<br /> HIS HOME WAS IN TULSA AND ONCE HE FAILED TO RESPOND TO A CALL FROM THE EXTRA BOARD DISPATCHER IN DALLAS. THAT WAS SERIOUS, MISSING OUT AND THREE HUNDRED MILES FROM HOME.<br /> A COUPLE DAYS PASSED AND A TULSA EXTRA BOARD DRIVER SAID TO OUR DISPATCHER, I MAY KNOW WHERE BALES IS AT THERE IN DALLAS.<br /><br /> THE DISPATCHER SAID, GO FIND HIM SO HE CAN REDEEM HIMSELF AND NOT LOSE HIS JOB.<br /> THE DISPATCHER SHOULD HAVE SENT A NON-DRINKER. ACTUALLY HE DID SEND ANOTHER AND THIS TIME A NON-DRINKER THAT KNEW WHERE THEY WERE.<br /><br /> NOT NICE THOUGH MUST FINISH THE COMMENT. BALES AND HIS FRIEND WERE FOUND SUPPOSEDLY ENJOYING THEIR VISIT, THE LADY FRIEND THAT OWNED THE LIQUOR STORE WAS ALLOWING BALES AND FRIEND TO LIVE IN A SMALL APARTMENT IN THE BACK PART OF THE STORE.<br /><br /> ALL RETURNED TO TULSA AND HAPPILY EVADED BEING CALLED IN TO THE OFFICE OF 'BEAR TRACKS', AND AS YOU MIGHT GUESS, BALES EXPLAINED IT ALL WITH HIS STOCK EXPRESSION, 'SUCH IS LIFE'. samAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-21834725449521608292010-04-18T17:59:31.251-04:002010-04-18T17:59:31.251-04:00I think sometimes people are sooo "me" f...I think sometimes people are sooo "me" focused they can't look beyond what their actions do and how it will impact their loved ones. It is all about satisfying their needs and desires, which is sad. If people would just stop and think before they act, what a kinder world this could be<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-29766854858997076932010-04-18T17:49:27.973-04:002010-04-18T17:49:27.973-04:00Good entry Jack.
