#94: Moving Mountains (Friday, October 10)

There is an old saying, "Faith can move mountains." I think it can be used with trust as well. A relationship -- whether it be a friendship, business partnership or romantic relationship -- without trust is one that is on rocky ground and doomed to fail. Trust is the foundation on which all human interactions are built.

Even the strength of our economy is based on trust: the value that money has is simply because we have confidence and trust that when we give someone that piece of paper, it has value. Without our trust in the value of the paper we use as money, it would be worthless. The current market conditions are a result of lack of consumer trust...and fear.

Even in these difficult times when everyone is worried about their jobs, and trying to make ends meet, it's still important to trust that things will get better. Despair, fear and panic will only make things worse. Your role in stimulating the economy is important. Trust that everything that happens is part of a larger plan, and things will always work out...even when you don't see a viable solution.

Be patient, be positive, and don't stop living. Be prudent with your spending choices, but don't let it stop you from making the most of the time you have here. Remember, you can't live your life based on a the value of a dollar.

I rarely if ever get to leave a comment but I must share how much i enjoy getting your Friday blogs each week. It inspires and uplifts me to live and live loud. I'm envious of how well you present yourself in the midst of ALLLLL you've got going on and yet you are always composed, in good spirit and motivated to keep going!! How the HELL DO U DO THAT!!!???

The great beauty of it all is that you are evidence that life IS what you make it. I'm getting there.

As for this weeks topic, my faith is in the highest power. My heart is clean and my intentions are good. With that said, bad things do happen to good people BUT I have FAITH that God didn't bring us this far to turn his back now. Winning this election will require 200% participation, FAITH and DIVINE INTERVENTION.

Our day is coming!! I'll be dancing in the street on Nov 4th. Either that or rioting!!
