Knowing the Difference

A man of his word is not the same as a man of words. A man of words has all the right things to say and says them well and at all the right times but I am sad to tell you that words is all that you’ll ever truly get for that man. A man of his word is often silent, his words fewer than the previous… but what makes this man great is that his actions follow his words. He doesn’t say things just to be saying them. What he says, he means and he follows up with great intent and purpose.

In my younger days I confused the two. I thought surely that a man with so many words would mean what he says. I thought that all of these words meant that he put great thought into what he wants when in reality he was just talking to hear his own brain rattle.

Have You Kept Your Own Word?

Some food for thought this evening…..

IMG_9236Each year we learn new lessons and each year we tell ourselves that next time we will do it differently .. whatever “it” is.

At the end of each year we say .. the coming year will be a different year .. that we will make much needed changes and life will change for us.

Well…. ?

Have you made the changes you said you would make?

I’m trying … taking one step at a time and one day at a time to keep my own word. It’s not an easy road … but a road I need to take. Some days it’s harder than others. I just want you all to know .. you are not alone out there. We all have changes that need to be made in one way or another. Some easy .. some not so easy and some hard as hell!! If you need help, reach out to friends and family… talk over your options, your difficulties… they may be able to help you get through.

How about you?

Are you staying true to your own word? Are you making the changes you need to make?

Many Blessings,
