Workmates are Family

What a beautiful day it was for a picnic! And it was our work picnic -- THQ, that is. It's always great to see the families of the people we work with -- and the employees always like to see us in private clothes -- seems a like a treat -- and it is for us!! But our workmates are really like family. We know the joys and the sorrows. We ask about personal concerns and are genuinely interested in all the pieces of their lives. Life is truly about relationships. It's not about power or position. It's not about the money we make (though it helps). It's not about the "toys" we have. My father-in-law -- now heavenly -- used to tell us that in our beloved Salvation Army -- all that really matters is your family!! When all is said and done . . . it's your family who'll still be there. Wonder if our workmates will still be family then ? God has gives us a wonderful life!

Passwords

I've just about had it with passwords. Who knew ten years ago that you would need at least 200 passwords just to get up in the morning. Paying bills, blogging, shopping, doing research, etc., etc., etc. So we need lists of passwords -- because . . . as everyone knows -- people have already chosen our passwords. Does it seems like I'm going in circles ?? And then . . . at work -- we must change our passwords periodically!! And . .. the combination of numbers and letters must be exact! Yikes -- can I do anything without a password ? I can pray. God needs no passwords from us -- He knows the very number of hairs on our head. So happy -- I'm just done with a scattered identity. God loves me as He made me. Yahoo!
