If we really took this list seriously and applied it... I'm sure the lucid word "success" is an understatement of how "successful and fulfilled" we'd actually be!!

Your brain is in overdrive!!!
Very bright young man.
Love you comments,,,,,, thank you.
it goes blank often
she would have to work, i cant work...goverment sucks
What great advice, Sis. Merrily! :)
You know, Mer, after reading through that list, I realized that your number one, marry the right person has alot to do with most of your other points. In all reality, alot of the other ones are so difficult if not impossible to have, dream, or accomplish if you are married to the wrong person! It is so true, thank you, and I love you so much!
why does this always happen i type down what is needed and try to help people and yet i cant even post my thoughts on my own blog...
all of them are very good. I also like to read things like that . It pulls you back on track
Hey Jeriann
Hello, how are you doing little girl??
I wish I could take credit for what I just wrote. It is a famous writing.
If I posted my own feelings and thoughts; they can be very extreme, overkill and intense. (As you must remember about me; staying with me)
Better for me to find things and post, that to write my feelings. I get too intense about stuff.
Good point Amy!! Yes, easy to do almost all the above with the right mate. Hard to do almost all the above with the wrong mate.
I guess bottom line, (as our wonderful Pastor has taught; that I fail so very much in) you can't change anyone else. The only person you have control over is yourself..... Therefore, if we are given a lemon for a mate, make lemonaid out of him...... LOL, LOL.......
Aren't I philisophical!!!!!
I will pray every good thing for your future Amy. Always make sure the dude can catch the stick.......
You bring so much to the table JERM....
You can and do help others. If you want to help people more from your blog, just jolly well do it!!
You have got it Jerm.....
Lots of really cool things come from your mind.
"JUST DO IT"
Besides your blog, is yours!!! Don't compare to anyone else, just do your thing!!
Hey Tina,
Hello long lost friend!!! LOL
So nice to hear from you.
Yeah, I am a wimpy wompy for heady stuff.
It gets my rust old wheels going!!!! LOL
Nothing quite does it though, like reading Gods word.
Just finished Proverbs (took quite some time, too long actually)
Now into Ecclesiastes!!! Talk about inspiration, correction, conviction, rebuke, faith building, encouraging, looking in the mirror!!
You would think with all I profess:
I would be a lot farther along the food chain of growth; than I am...
I think I am a slow learner!!!! Sheesh!!!
I'm doing great! I'm missing you guys though. ;) How are you?
Ohhh, I see! Well, it's a good post for sure. I always enjoy your reading your blog! =)
