Today We Are Rich: Harnessing the Power of Total Confidence by Tim Sanders

1) The buck stops here - accept responsibility for the past.

2) Seek wisdom - change the future by your actions, read/listen to things that bring positive change, choose your friends with care, listen to the counsel of the wise. Be a humble servant to others.

3) Be a person of action. A New future means a New me. I will be more energetic, I will inspire others, I will be a leader and a doer. No fear, do not quit, do it now.

Time flies when you’re having fun. It also flies when you’re not having fun. Last Saturday I did the funeral of Paul Anibal. At 86 years many would say he lived a good life. Great wife, nice kids, grandkids, great grandkids some would say Paul was a lucky man. Paul would say He was blessed. An ex-navy man, educated at Michigan State University, a farmer and a banker were a part of his history.

Paul was a church goer, a bible reader, a prayer worrier and a God worshiper that was a part of his legacy. I will miss you Paul but in the words of a favorite song, Worship His Majesty.

Flint Institute of Arts, Flint Michigan.

The last time I was at the Flint Institute of arts was about 8 years ago and boy was I pleased with the changes. They had completely remodeled the building. You walk into a large information room and we were greeted by two staff members. They explained what there was to see and were to see it even down to the restroom placements. They offered each of us a tourstick they you entered the exhibit number and it told the story about that piece. They offered a photo permit if you wanted to take pictures. Finally they showed you what was free and what you might want to pay to see. The temporary exhibits cost the rest is free.

There was a lot to see and a lot to listen to. The place could not have been any cleaner. It was a very good experience. You can check them out at www.flintarts.org.

The kids are out of school, Tina took two days off.
Party!
