Be prayerful & lean on your Faith!
Pick yourself up. Move forward.
It is o.k. to rest, but only briefly. An idle mind is the devil's workshop.
Keep moving forward!

AIN'T GOING DOWN THIS TIME.......Louisiana Boy




I've been here before I'm familiar with the pain
But I ain't running no more there's one thing changed
Ain't going down this time
This time I ain't going down

Like an undertow
I feel the promise of the nighttime
But I've been down that road
And my search came to an end

I hit the motherload
Enough blues for a lifetime
Now I'm digging deep inside
Trying to find my way back again

You know you've entered the danger zone
When you look in the eyes and there's no one home
Ain't going down this time
This time I ain't going down

Chris Williamson- “This is what hard feels like”

Save it. You’ll probably want to go back to it when you need the reminder.

There was a camp town man, used to plow and sing
And he loved that mule and the mule loved him
When the day got long as it does about now
I'd hear him singing to his muley-cow
Calling, "Come on my sweet old girl, and I'd bet the whole damn world
That we're gonna make it yet to the end of the row"

Singing "hard times ain't gonna rule my mind
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, Bessie
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more"

Said it's a mean old world, heavy in need.
That big machine is just picking up speed
They were supping on tears, they were supping on wine
We all get to heaven in our own sweet time
So come all you Asheville boys and turn up your old-time noise
And kick 'til the dust comes up from the cracks in the floor

Singing, hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, brother
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more

But the camp town man, he doesn't plow no more
I seen him walking down to the cigarette store
Guess he lost that knack and he forgot that song
Woke up one morning and the mule was gone
So come on, you ragtime kings, and come on, you dogs, and sing
And pick up the dusty old horn and give it a blow

Playing, hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, honey
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind, sugar
Hard times ain't gonna rule my mind no more

Exercise? Drinking? Prayer?


When times are tough for you, stop focusing on you.

Invest yourself into others who need help. Volunteer, visit, call, give, help someone in greater need.

Amazing how your troubles begin fading away.

Hard times could be so many things. Prayer is the first thing that helps. Acceptance is another. How hard something is sometimes depends on the person. Something some consider hard is soft compared with many have been through.

Prayer!
Dealing with a broken C2 vertebrae. Two neck surgeries: one to reset the vertebrae and one to repair a slice in my esophagus from the bone fragments. First surgery was in Columbus, MS and had to be airlifted to Memphis for the second three days after the first.
Currently doing rehab, and the worst is over.
I’m here because of the grace of God!!

prayer and relying on those close to you. I am currently going through the hardest time of my life and don't know how I am making it through each day. Can only be the power of God and kindness of those around me. There are good people out there and those good people will step up in a time of need.

Head down and push through it. It won't last that long in the grand scheme of things.

Did “hookers and blow” make the list yet?

If not, then this is my recommendation.
