How many times do we miss God's best because we get on board with our feelings? The decisions we make in our defining moments will determine how high we will rise. They not only affect us, but our children. Our response in our defining moments-speaks volumes. They see our example. How do we act when someone treats us wrong? Do we stay in peace when nothings going our way? Do we give up when our dreams seem to be evading us? We can't make permanent decisions based on temporary uncomfortable circumstances. No person lives or dies unto themselves...someone's ALWAYS watching. More than our accomplishments...our character, our integrity. ..how we handle tough times is what creates our legacy. God doesn't expect us to be perfect...but, what we do after we mess up also speaks volumes-do we apologize? Do we have the humility to go and make things right? We all have unfair situations and setbacks. We cant get stuck there...we have to move on to the next chapter of our lives. There is a moment of grace for every difficulty. If we stay on the high road...our defining moments will not defeat us...they will promote us.

You went and broke our lives. You are so much worse than a cheater. You killed something. And you killed it when its back was turned" -David Levithan, The Lover's Dictionary I'm gonna get back to my Asperger's list tomorrow...but, I had something really interesting happen today...and I want to talk to ya'll about it...
