Title: Wisdom
Post by: Blackfalcon on September 18, 2010, 09:01:23 AM

Comes from unexpected sources sometimes. When ones integrity is questioned it is common to react in a less than positive way, which often does more harm than good. I came upon this nugget this morning, and thought I would share it with you. My you all have a wonderful day!

"Wisdom and reputation last a lifetime...it is wise to nurture and invest in both. I see/hear those that spend too much time worrying about others that their investment in their own reputation suffers. Speak not evil of others and reap the investments of wisdom and reputation. Sow good seeds, reap bountiful harvest."

2nd Corinthians 9:6
Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

Grasshopper I couldn't agree more.  Always believed in taking the high road.  Sticks and Stones might break my bones, but words never will!!!

I like it Dave!   My wife has a needlepoint in our home that states to have a friend you must BEE one.  Wisdom, Reputation, and Friendship should be cherished.
