If people could realize how heavy the yoke of debt becomes I think they would make wiser buying choices. I think it is a shame that it is so easy to get credit...and so many over spend with it. I agree with all you said today...(ha...that is a real surprise isn't it...have I ever not agreed with you???)<br><br>I must try that soup. We love soups and we are promised a few cooler days in the 70's are coming up....it sounds like soup weather to me.<br><br>I enjoyed talking to you again today. You make me smile.

Satan started that whole scenario of getting us to focus on what we don't have rather than the blessings God gave us when he tempted Eve in the garden. He made her focus on the fruit she wasn't supposed to eat instead of focusing on God. It's when we lose that focus that we go wrong. blessings, marleneStitchinByTheLakehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04501479854150315011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-33829974789714410792009-11-11T03:42:14.974+00:002009-11-11T03:42:14.974+00:00I loved your reference to your oldest trying to be...I loved your reference to your oldest trying to be a rapper Aren't they funny when they are trying to figure themselves out?

That's one of my favorite quotes from President Hinckley--I need to remember it more often! <br><br>I'm feeling a bit under the weather today, so that soup sounds like just the thing...now if only you were my neighbor and could just run a bowl over to me!

I think things like values and faith and traditions help us to bring out the things we want to be and that is a good thing.

Oh these are inspiring words and thoughts today, Marie! I am having to make a big decision which has been causing some anxiety and thoughts of failure... We can only do our best every day, and I must be mindful of that. Some doors close, others open. And some of those doors we can even close and open ourselves--we have choices. Hard keeping all the "negative" thoughts at bay, but this post help me--THANK YOU! Very cozy soup today. We've been without a sunny day for two weeks now, so cozy food is often on the menu--LOL! Hope very much to catch you for a chat tonight--can but hope!
