Valuable lessons!

Over the years I have been taught many valuable lessons. Things like think before you speak (this is a real hard one for me) Look before you start walking, treat people the way you would like to be treated and there are no free rides, work for what you want. But the most important thing that I have learned is that life with out God is no life at all. Without Jesus I would be lost!

Anything and everything!

In my life time I have worked as a heavy equipment operator, carpenter, mechanic,welder, auto body tech. painter, supervisor, grocery manager, auto detailer, auto salesman, motel manager. Now mind you, I am no expert at any of the above but I have had a chance to work at each job over two or three years and some much longer than that. Each field I had a chance to work in I enjoyed and worked hard to do a good job. The one thing that I have learned that challenge is good. I have always felt the most useful when I was challenged by a new field or job. Now I am not suggesting that this will work for everyone but I can’t complain. I was fortunate enough to work well in all of the jobs that I have had. I feel that when one stops learning they stop living. I am always ready to learn something new. The family has always told me that I was a jack-of-all trades and master of none.

thanks for listening. 

What have I done!

Well a good place to start is at the ripe old age of 17 I served in the Army, operated a bulldozer, earth mover and a 5 ton water truck. This all took place in Thailand. This let me grow up fast and wild with out much regard for life, living in the fast lane. I enjoyed the people over there and if things would have worked out different I would have liked to have returned on a mission trip or just a nice visit. Too old for that now! I think that it is a great chance to be able to see how others live in foreign places. A few years ago I had a chance to go to Nicaragua on a mini mission trip to do some work on a small mountain school. I really enjoyed that even if it was just a short time (7 days). In my lifetime I have had a chance to do many things. If you visit often I will share a few of them. I do not proclaim to be anybody special or have any insight on anything just felt like sharing my life with the (www.) Thank you for listening.
