Today's quote was submitted by Andrew

JRR Tolkien said "All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost." This is an excerpt from JRR Tolkien's book "The Fellowship of the Ring" I need to admit. I've never read this book series... and I've never watched the movies. OK, now that I've come clean with you on that, we can move forward. I agree with the sentiment of today's quote. There are times when we see things a certain way, but in reality they are not even close. Just because something FEELS like a good thing, does not inherently make it a good thing... and the same is true the other way. Just because something seems like a bad thing... does not itself make it bad. You need to look at each instance and think for yourself. Use your better judgment to decide for yourself!

C.S. Lewis said “All that is not eternal is eternally out of date.” Very cool quote. Eternity is a long time... so let's shorten that to just our lifetime. Why do we do what we do? So many people will make horrible choices... and we pay the price by being separated from those we love. Whether it's going to jail for a weekend of bad choices... or losing your marriage and family over one night of fun. It's not worth it. Think things through more. I've watched more than one friend throw away their marriage because they met someone else. Then that relation ship also fell apart. They found themselves alone and I am baffled that they didn't see that coming. This is all just our lifetime... now lets get back to ETERNITY! Yeah, eternity is a long time to pay the price for some dumb decisions that were not eternal at all. Think it through!

Chrystal Evans Hurst said “Don’t delay making memories or sharing your life with your friends. Do what you can to live your life well with what you have.” Excellent quote. This one hit me a little harder than it might have a few months ago. Back in November, I got a call from a friend. He told me that he was diagnosed with stage four cancer. He asked me to help him with a few things. He wanted me to keep some things moving forward after he is gone. I remember the call. He could not hear the tears welling up in my eyes. I tried to make sure I kept a strong voice as I told him we could do this together and I was literally praying for his recovery. He was ready and he said it was time. He passed away just before Christmas. Mid fifties... too young... so sad. I'll honor his request to keep his spirit alive in the group he started. Live while you can!

Today's quote was submitted by Taylor

TS Eliot said "For last year's words belong to last year's language, and next year's words await another voice." This is an excerpt from TS Eliot's book "Little Gidding" I'd like this quote any time of year, but as we're beginning a new year, it seems more fitting to share it now! That's probably why Taylor shared it now! You've probably heard someone say “That's SO last year” I know I've heard it... I've even said it in a joking fashion... but there is some truth to that. There are some things we need to put behind us and we need to focus on moving forward... instead of looking back. There is a time when tomorrow becomes today.... and today then becomes yesterday. Don't get stuck living in the past. You can fondly remember the past, but make sure you're living in today and planning for tomorrow. That's how you make sure YOU are prepared!

John Wooden said “Don’t give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you.” I love this quote. Have YOU given up on YOUR dreams? Do you even remember your dreams? I am absolutely blessed to be living my dreams every single day. My dream was always a simple one. To entertain people. To make people smile and laugh and make their day better. How do I go about doing that? I share fun stuff on my social media pages, rather than picking fights. I use my time on the radio to give positive and fun information. And as a comedian I make sure that each story or joke that I tell will add to the enjoyment of your life. I'm not there to push my agenda or tell you my thoughts on an important topic. I'm there to make you feel better, even if you had a rough day. My job is simple.... just to make you smile... or even better... to laugh!
