Must Watch... You Will Definitely Share This...
I was reading my news feed on Facebook yesterday afternoon and saw a video my friend Brett Daminski posted on his wall, and I'm not gonna lie, I got emotional towards the middle and towards the end of the video.
If it's one video you will want to share over and over again, it will be this one. It's true. We take so much for granted in our lives, that we never realize how much it would have meant if we had given that homeless guy just 25 cents or that lawn mower man a bottle of water.
There's a neighbor across mine and Ryan's street named Mary, who comes over from time to time asking if I could help her with her A/C repairs up in the attic, check her car because it won't start, or fix her fence when it's broken. She's in her late 60's, and using her cane she slowly walks over to our house asking for help. And in all the times I've helped her I knew it made a difference in her life as well as mine. Ryan and I came over one weekend and planted a Crape Myrtle in her yard, because she said anything she ever planted always died. So we went and got her something that was tolerant to Texas weather, and now that Myrtle blooms every year. She's not family, and technically she's not a friend, but she's a human being, and we love her regardless.
Feel free to share this video with all your friends, family and anyone you love for that matter, preferably with this blog, because it's important that people read why I posted it.

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... Over 5 Million Dollars in 30 Days!
I posted this on Facebook two years ago and folks just didn't want to believe me, but it's the God honest truth! Start counting your pennies.
What a Hot Mess: Angel's No Angel
Honestly, I didn't know which of my segments to place this under. Should I have placed it under "The Woes of Being a Bad Parent" or on this one, "What a Hot Mess"?
I didn't want to blame the parent for her daughter being this way, because I've seen caring, loving, nurturing parents who have raised their kids exceptionally well, and yet they turn out to be monsters on their own. I've seen parents where they let their kid get away with anything, and they turned out to be scholars and geniuses when they got older. And I've also seen parents who could care less about their child, and they turned out just like them, worthless with no future.
So I went with the hot mess, because there's no question about it, Angel is one - HOT - MESS!
