Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement.
Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.

Watching Saturday’s unhurried sunrise
Feeling gratefulness, spirit shall arise
Being retired, life moves at much slower pace
Realizing, there’s no need to win life’s race
Remembering grandfathers, crisp and clear
Teaching life lessons, steady and sincere
Growing up, learning from their example
Tasting life with every new sample
Loving family, with kindness and care
Treating marriage, with love beyond compare
Passing on wisdom, making good choices
Sitting here now, hearing cherished voices
Accepting their torch, these years move along
Being a grandfather, where love belongs
Filling up life, grandchildren sharing love
Joining other grandfathers, fits like a glove

Our greatest impact on this earth comes from loving and serving others–as Jesus did.
From Galatians 5:13-14: “For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters, only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become enslaved to one another. For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'”

Cowgirl is an attitude really. A pioneer spirit, a special brand of courage. The cowgirl faces life head-on, lives by her own lights, and makes no excuses.
It’s the way you ride the trail that counts.
