False Flattery

women.
“Praise, like gold and diamonds, owes its value to its scarcity.”
~ Dr. Samuel Johnson.
“Flattery corrupts both the receiver and the giver.” ~ Edmund
Burke.
“Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I
may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you.
Encourage me, and I will not forget you.” ~ William Ward,

More Beyond
October 31
Thought: Life is not about you, and it's not about me; life is all
about Jesus Christ.
It is because of Jesus Christ that we have hope beyond
this life.
In Valladolid, Spain, where Christopher Columbus
died in 1506, stands a monument commemorating the great
discoverer. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the
memorial is a statue of a lion destroying one of the Latin
words that had been part of Spain's motto for centuries.
Before Columbus made his voyages, the Spaniards thought
they had reached the outer limits of earth. Thus their motto
was "Ne Plus Ultra," which means "No More Beyond." The
word being torn away by the lion is "Ne" or "no," making it
read "Plus Ultra." Columbus had proven that there was
indeed "more beyond."
So it is in life – there is more beyond.
What to do:
✞ Live as though this were your last day on earth –
because one day it will be!
