Jesus summed it up nicely:
Mt 7:12 "So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. I am sure that the Jews utterly disagree. And it is their law and their prophets, after all.
I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.

James 1:19
Let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath
Every time I read the book of James it seems as though God shows me where my attitude is lacking.
Romans 5:1

The truth is, we all have the potential to be our own worst enemy. And we often are.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Seeing others who do much more with less than I. People who succeed by pure desire and willpower rather than all the talent and toys.
It shames me.
For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."
2 Thessalonians 3:10

Stupidity left unattended will run rampant
Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience

I really do try to become better, but often feel like it's two steps up and three steps back. I try to be pleasant to the people with whom I interact each day. I know that having someone be nice to me makes me feel better, so I try to pass that along.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

Practicing what one posts in threads such as this while posting in other threads.
Then you won't appear to be such a bunch of hypocrites.

The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one.

I think just getting older,its calmed me down.plus having cancer,THAT was a humbling experience,plus nearly being killed at work.a career ending injury with some time in traction gives you alot of time to think that you never had before.laying there with nothing to do but think about ,would -a ,could -a ,should -a, that will tend to change you.i hope for the better.

To me, following Jesus will make your life better and will make you better at life. i've been chit on by more than one Jesus follower including my paternal grandparents. Some fuggin' deacon he turned out to be. One co-worker always proclaiming his Christianity that used jigaboo and beaner regularly ended up a department chaplain. Not a guarantee but if it works for you, great.
Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger.
Stupid always finds a way.

I suppose that we (yourself) should be trying to make yourself a better man, if you are a gentlemen that is as defined by some old guy.
