TODAY’S QUOTE
You'll never have all the information you need to make a decision. If you did, it would be a foregone conclusion, not a decision.

HAPPY THURSDAY
This is just like a FRIDAY ! The last day of this work week for me! I got most of my work done yesterday so today will just be finishing up a few little things and getting all the mail out.
On my way home this evening I plan on stopping by the cemetery to leave some flowers on DDH’s grave for Memorial Day. They always have flags for any of the veterans, but I like to take flowers too.
We are supposed to get a few showers today , but the weather will be warm so I’ll just be thankful for that.
Take good care all !
Have a great day ! Another wonderful one on the Way !
TODAY IS TAP DANCING DAY
Tap dancing combined the elements of African drumming and dancing with the techniques of European clog and step dancing. It was a melting pot of cultures that came together in the late 1800s. Taps were added to the heels and toes of shoes in 1925 to make the fast tapping easier to hear. The US Congress designated May 25th as National Tap Dancing Day in honor of Bill "Bojangles" Robinson's birthday.

TODAY’S SMILE
Little Billy said his good night prayer, closing with something about like this: "Dear Jesus, Tommy Brown has a bicycle and I do want one. Please send me a bicycle."
His parents heard his earnest petition and decided to help answer his prayer. They went down town to secure it but decided he was a little too small for the bicycle and so they got a tricycle. They took it home and placed it in the room where he would see it when he awoke.
Next morning he awoke, sat up in bed and rubbed his sleepy eyes, as he gazed upon the tricycle he said, "Dear Lord, don't you know the difference between a bicycle and a tricycle?"
The parents heard him and took the tricycle and exchanged it for a bicycle. He was definite.
We are too indefinite often in praying.
The needy man, in the Bible, went to his neighbor and said, "Friend, lend me three loaves." Too often we do not pray for anything definite and do not receive anything special.
By William Moses Tidwell

TODAY’S REFLECTION
Jesus said, 'It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners
Mark 2:17
The Pharisees criticized Jesus because he had dinner with those they considered sinners. Today's scripture was Jesus' answer. The Pharisees were only concerned with keeping the laws and presenting sacrifices at the altar.
Jesus was trying to tell them that being merciful is what God is asking of us
TODAY’S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER’S ALMANAC
