Jack’s Winning Words 5/20/20
“If you can’t go straight ahead, you go around the corner.”  (Cher)  Cher is more than an entertainer.  She’s also a good source of quotes about looking at life in a positive way.  Most of us have come to places where we’ve faced a problem, seemingly, without a solution. Cher suggests looking for a corner around that roadblock.  A person I know lost his job, but found a way to teach his skills to prisoners so that they might be able to find work when released.  ;-)  Jack.


FROM ST PAUL:  Cher also said that marriage is a wonderful institution but who wants to live in an institution?☺===JACK:  All marriages aren't perfect.  I've performed some "clinkers."  You probably have, too. ===SP:  i would call a few of them worse than clinkers!   altho some marriages i thot would fail are still going and some i was sure would last,  did not last.  we never know for sure what goes on behind closed doors or how sincere people are when they do marriage prep.  its a kind of crap shoot at best.===JACK:  Is there a secret to "doing" a successful pre-marital counselling?

FROM SK IN SJ:  I’m all for that! One has to be resourceful to get where you think you want to go. I end up taking the scenic route A lot. That’s what we say when we get lost. I suppose you could call that “The Road less traveled” ha!! That seems to be my path!===JACK:  You seem to be following the advice of Robert Frost.  I think that most people who hjave "new" experiences are better off because of them...in spite of some briers, slips and falls and mosquito bites.

FROM WILLMAR REV:  The first person I thought of was Chuck Colson, when you mentioned your friend . . . I've always known you of being a friend with those in high places. 0;-)===JACK:  Colson... There's a name from the past.  Did he covert to becoming an A of G? 

FROM SKO:  I wasn't aware of either tidbit. Thanks for sharing! She looks pretty good for 74! ===JACK:  Age is just a number.  It's how you feel that counts.
