Under your Feet
April is the glorious time of year. Depending on where you live, you may still have the chill of winter lingering in the air; or you might be enjoying typical warm spring days feeling the warmth and sunshine under your feet, or even quintessential April showers. But such can bring tornadoes, so be on watch!
You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet,

Believe
Many have ideals that they believe are worthwhile for all to embrace. If you contemplate ideals other than your own, just remember Voltaire’s words:
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.
For I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.

talebearer
Do you remember a time when someone said something about you that wasn’t true and how you felt? I experienced that and years later the talebearer told me about it seeking forgiveness; and not only was I indignant, I was appalled! God knows I’m guilty of many things, but not what I was accused. Then took a deep breath and said; people who know me will know it wasn’t true and people who don’t, won’t matter. So don’t worry about it and gave her a hug. That works for us who are not daily under public scrutiny. But God help those who are innocent of such talebearers. Is it just human nature to be willing to repeat the bad rather than extolling the good in others?
You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people; nor shall you take a stand against the life of your neighbor: I am the LORD.

Thomas Jefferson’s Birthday
Know
Educate and inform (without bias) the entire mass of people as that is the only way they will know to keep liberty alive.
And I thought to inform you, saying, ‘Buy it back in the presence of the inhabitants and the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know; for there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.’” And he said,
“I will redeem it.”

Did or Did Not
My Mother and generations before us determined that the “Haves and the Have Nots” are the second stage, as the first stage was the “Dids and Did Nots.” Do what you need to do today so you can have that which you need tomorrow.

Laugh
A laugh is a smile that just burst out loud with a happy noise. It is said the best way to weaken your enemies, whether they are bullies, politicians or unpleasant relatives, is to laugh with them.
The closest distance between two people is always a good laugh.

Right
There is a fundamental difference between optimists and pessimists: pessimists are usually wrong. By definition, pessimists tend to believe the worst aspects of things or believe that the worst will happen. Occasionally the pessimist may be proved to be right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip.
I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in the right paths.

A library is not a luxury but is an everyday necessity to be able to look up anything you want to know.
There is nothing quite like being
Able to hold a book in your hands
And read the researched words.
