My life has been a series of lessons one after another. Sometimes I learn easily that the stove is hot and I shouldn’t touch it. More often than not I have to learn these lessons the hard way. I’m extremely fortunate when I learn a lesson from someone elses experience. However it happens, all these lessons have guided me along my way, each with its own stamp on my brain. Each with its own…Moral
I wish someone would have passed along these pearls of wisdom to me before I started to venture into the world. Well, maybe they did. I was not always the best at listening. These stories lead me down a path in which I’ve cried with the sinners and laughed with the Saints. That’s been my experience – always about half right. I wouldn’t trade a moment with either the sinner nor the Saint. It’s made me who I am today.
As a 32 year old married man you may assume I can’t offer much in the way of life lessons. An old timer may say they did it better. A younger person may think they’ll do it better. Either way you can’t help but learn from some of the things I’ve done. I do offer these tales as cautionary. Most of this should not be tried without a lengthy doctors note, a court affidavit and the express written consent of a parent or guardian.
All that being said, learn from what I’ve done. If you can do it better, I say God speed. If you’ve been around the block a couple of times, take the time to laugh. For better or for worse, this is my life and my thoughts.
Explore “My Life My Thoughts” tab at the top to see the morals I’ve learned. They include the comical, the sad and the heartfelt. Each story is archived separately. I further encourage you to read “Their Life My Thoughts” tab where I take a moral from the road paved by others. Both are useful. If you want to read them all, check out “All Thoughts” from the page link on the side. That’s one stop shopping right there! Don’t be afraid to check out the “Other Blogs” page to see some other great blogs. Enjoy
Being wise enough to know that I am not the only one who has learned through the trial and error of life, I’m excited to include a section of the site that has the morals learned by others. Each story shared was done with the intent that collectively we will always be greater than each individual part. They can be found at the top under Their Life Their Thoughts. Must reads!

A LITTLE BOY WAS BORN WITH A BODY ONLY SO HIS MOM TOLD HIM THAT G-O-D COULD MAKE HIM OVER TO BE ANYTHING THAT THE BOY WANTED TO BE IF THE LITTLE BOY BELIEVED. THAT NIGHT AS HE LAY ON HIS PILLOW, HE THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT HE LIKED THE MOST. HE REALLY LIKED GRAPES, SO HE ASKED G-O-D TO MAKE HIM INTO A GRAPE. THE NEXT MORNING, TO HIS SURPRISE HE HAD CHANGED INTO A GRAPE. HE SCURRIED TO THE KITCHEN WHERE HIS MOTHER WAS PREPARING BREAKFAST , AND ROLLED UP BESIDE HER. SHE LOOKED DOWN AND SAID , OH A GRAPE AND PICKED HIM UP AND ATE HIM. THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS ” TO QUIT WHILE YOUR A-HEAD !!!!!!!
I am a story writer. All my stories are about a even and a lesson learned. It has surprised me how much others have been enjoying what I have to say. That said I look forward to what you will bring to us.
Thanks for coming by and I’m looking forward to seeing how you Find Your Way Now.
If you can learn from your mistakes, more power to you.
I seem to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. on the upside, when I actually REPEAT the same mistake, I usually recognize it afterwards: “Oh, yeah, this isn’t the first time I’ve done that, is it?”
Anyway, looking forward to reading more!
