Good morning. Hope this email finds you doing well this Monday morning and you had a wonderful Veterans Day weekend. Wanted to share Tim's Time Outs:
Below is on of my favorite poems on growth. Whether it's a tree, a child or an adult, we had all better be growing. I like to read this poem whenever I am wondering what all the pain and difficulties are about in my life or the life of someone I know.~Bob P.
GROW TALL:~Douglas Wallcock
The tree that never had to fight
For sun and sky and air and light,
Never became a forest king.
But lived and died a scrubby thing.
The man who never had to toil,
Who never had to win his share
Of sun and sky and light and air,
Never became a manly man,
But lived and died as he began.
Good timber does not grow in ease
The stronger the wind, the tougher the trees.
The farther the sky, the greater the length
By sun and cold, by rain and snow.
In tree or man good timber grows.
Let us NEVER forget the difficult times DO serve a purpose. Perhaps nothing good can ever really come unless there are some trying times and circumstances to go through. We many not be able to see the purpose while going through those trials and tough times, but once on the other side, if we have stayed the course and kept the right attitude, we will be able to see the growth that has taken place in us.
May your day and week be filled with growth, success, and happiness
All the best,
Tim
