There is a word that goes with an action that is missing from our society these days. The word is "INTEGRITY". I see so many people that have NO idea what it means. To keep your word,even to a lowly dog,fish,bird,,oh ya and child. To put others first,,soooo tired of the "ME FIRST" mentality. People need to realize that there is a blessing in blessing others. I sew because it is a God given gift and I make things for others when I feel that I should. Ya it blesses others,but it blesses me too.
I tell my daughters to look for a man with integrity,one that can keep his word and is willing to WORK,one that does not expect to be handed things. My 20 yr old says that she will probably be single a long time. My 25 yr old is newly engaged to a man that she has already invested 4yrs in and will have invested 3 more before they actually tie the knot.
It is such a shame that our society has turned into a "throw away" "instant gratification" society.
Thanks for the laugh in the original post,the sadness there is that it is just too true.
Make room on your soap box for me. |
