February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in. I finally purchased a new monthly focus board. We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good! My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy! My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just
OPINIONS...every one has one...right? Opinions are merely man's interpretations or ideas.
That is all an opinion is. The good thing about listening to someones opinion is that we can take it heart or we can leave it alone. The choice is ours. Something that has been a good rule of thumb to me about heeding the opinions of others in my personal life is WHO the opinion is coming from for starters. It makes a difference to me and a big one at times. If I am dealing with something in my life then I want the opinions of those that has been there. I mean really.....I am not about to ask someone that has NOT been through MENTAL PAUSE what their opinion is on how I should cope just as you better not take my opinion on how to raise boys as all I raised was girls!
The truth is that we want opinions from others as it helps us to deal with the agendas of our life and we want them from people that are wise in that area. May I say something here...Of course I can this is my blog right? Heed the opinions of God first and foremost but in the reality of life heed the opinions of others that has been where you've been or where you are. Listen to their advice...some may be fitting to your current needs and some may not be. Sometimes the opinion of another can save you a lot of heartache, a lot of wasted time and be a great source of strength to you in your time of need. God places people in our lives for reasons and sometimes it's just for a season...and at times He places them there for "Such a time as this"....
We should be very careful about the opinions of others, especially from those that lack in wisdom and knowledge....Taking their opinion could come back to "bite you".
