“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Wednesday; September 17, 2008

          What happens when someone discovers something we already know … are we happy for their revelation or do we lament their development and think; “Well, it’s about time.”?  Experiences come at us at different phases of life so not everyone will learn lessons at the same rate.  If we have had to learn to live with heartache for awhile – then someone else discovers it and says, “Wow, now I know how you feel.”; do we accept their thoughts or begrudge the time they needed to share the experience? 

         Whether the lessons are complex as illness, tragedy and economic struggles or something as superficial as a non-traditional work schedule or the inevitable aches and pains of aging, when people get to our level, let’s accept their thoughts of good will in good faith.  Even if it took someone a long time to be able to commiserate, now we have a fellow traveler through life.

         Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
