Jack’s Winning Words 6/28/19
“The grand essentials of happiness are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.”  (George Washington Burnap)  Noted psychiatrist, Erich Fromm, believed that happiness comes from loving others and from loving yourself.  He once assigned his students to finish this sentence.  “I respect myself for…”  (List 50 good qualities)  I’m not a Dr. Fromm, but I challenge you today to list 5 good qualities about yourself.  Then challenge someone else to do the same about themselves.  Happiness comes from love…of God; your neighbor; yourself.   ;-)  Jack

FROM VW MARY:  I would not be able to come up with 50! What about your five??===JACK:  i "try" to love God.  I "try" to love others.  I respect myself for "trying" to focus on being positive, nd for not ranting on Facebook.---and BTW< listing 50 begins with1, then 2 etc.

FROM RVB IN WB:   This was today’s Word in art... and Jack’s winning words - just sharing ===JACK:  Good art and dood words (John 15:12,23.

FROM ST PAUL IN ST PAUL:  Fromm was very popular about the time i was in the seminary.   it was a time of self-discovery, so to speak,  along with sensitivity groups,  California hot tubs, CPE, etc.   some of it bordered on narcissism but most of it was good, i believe.===JACK:  Sensitivity Training was a game-changer for me.  Fads are not necessarily bad.

FROM JH:  Amen. And thanks for all you do for so many. Peace and blessings,===JACK:  Thanks for your part in helping to make this world a better and more beautiful place.

FROM A McC:  God, yourself, neighbor  I am with you  Stay cool
