You Better Watch What You Say

Posted on July 8, 2013 by James R. Yarbrough

You should try not to say what you would not do. You should only say, if you feel you must, what you do not want to do. Will not can be a positive or negative it depends on what you think you will not do. More times than not it is your mind telling you things you cannot be sure of. It is more a challenge than anything else and you are pitting you against yourself. It becomes a tussle with your mind if you find yourself face to face with what you say you will not do. You must put forth an effort to hold yourself back. It requires a measure of Self-control, which could give way. If it does, one time it is too many. The only thing for sure you will not do, is a thing that you cannot do. No one knows the future.

What I write is inspired by the Creator. It is a natural process, not forced or coerced. It is written as it flows into my mind, and my life experiences and observations of the wonders of nature are the foundation for my insight. I am on a mission to let how I think be a voice that has not been heard. What I write and say is what I believe. My life has been a road well traveled. There have been freeways, side streets and dead ends. I have been cautioned, sped up and slowed down. I have changed lanes, merged with traffic and yielded to the right of way. I have been first at four way stops and the last to leave. I have driven through heavy rain, sunny days, and dark nights. It is after the darkest of them all, that I came to an intersection. I could pray on or move on. I now move with the traffic. I speed up when I can slow down when I should and pass when I must. Though, I am not in a hurry for life to me is not a race. We get to the end of the road soon enough. I made a decision to stay on the road of life. To take the off ramp is a thing I did not want to do. I know there is more to say than what has been said. What I have to say is not academic; I simply look at life in a way you may never have. It is how I see the world.
