Lucy or Ethel

Have you ever wondered if you were an Lucy or an Ethel? In my world, questions like this do actually pop up in my mind. I would say that I am definetly an Ethel. I am a good side kick friend, not the star of the show, and a few pounds heavier that my friends. I do well as Ethel Mertz. I think that's why I named my car Ethel. I just would rather not be the lime light star. I don't think I'd do well. I am far better the supportive friend, laughing , and enjoying life.

Earl

There is a TV show that has to deal with a man named Earl. He goes back and finds all the people in his life he did wrongs to. I haven't really ever watched the show, but understand that the man tries to make up for his past mistakes. It's an interesting idea...

I was talking with an old high school friend through Face Book tonight. We got into a conversation of how we wish we could take back old dumb mistakes we've made in our lives. We realised that no matter what we do or say now, the mistakes have been made and yet, oh how we wish we could still take them back. We have to be ever so careful to not dwell on past mistakes. The devil likes to take our faults and remind us we messed up. If we aren't careful, we spend too much time looking back, and forgetting to learn from the mistake and look forward.

My fortune cookie read today, "If you made no mistakes, you haven't lived." I suppose that is true. I just hope that I am as forgiving to others as I'd hope they would be forgiving of me.

I am ever so grateful of God's grace and His forgiveness.

I know this seems silly, but to all who read this, if I have made a mistake in any way towards you, please forgive me... I would always pray that people I come across in my life would truly know my heart and love me despite my faults.

They say there is the version you see of yourself, the version you think people see of you, and the version people truly have of you. I pray that in all versions I'm more Christ like and less of me.
