    Having faith isn’t about expecting something back in return, not in this life anyway

    Faith I don’t have cable TV or a satellite dish. Several years ago I came to the conclusion that it was pointless to pay fifty dollars a month for two-hundred channels and still find nothing worthwhile to watch on TV. I cancelled the satellite subscription. We live out in the sticks so our “air” TV ...read more

    “The secret of success is in the blocking and tackling. Focus on the blocking and tackling and everything else will come along.”
