Take the long way home. you may be surprised at what you see.

Try the hard way instead of the easy way. you WILL find that the hard way is FAR more rewarding than the easy way.

Share the last song that you would normally choose to share with someone today. you will probably find that this song applies to you and them far more then the same old song that your concious mind would prefer to share. It will teach you far more as well. The subconcious mind is far more powerful, and far more real, than the concious mind. This doesn't just apply to music, but to every aspect of life.

Feel free to share.

Forgive your enemies today. Don't just say it, mean it. The reason you can never forgive yourself is because you don't forgive others. Oftentimes we are more to blame than they are.

You will never be able to fully forgive yourself unless you first forgive others, and you will never be able to forgive others, unless you forgive yourself. Neither is possible without the other.

The great awakening!!!

You want to be original?? Stop throwing up your middle finger in every freaking photo you take. It doesn't make you a rebel, everyone does it. Just makes you the status quo. Wanna be original?? Stop dying your hair green, almost everybody has dyed their hair, ain't nothing original about that. You wanna be a true original?? Smile at someone today, let the car go instead of you rudely walking out in front of it. Wait for the sign to say walk before you walk. Hey, there's an idea.

Flipping people off may have been original 50 years ago back when it was uncommon, but it sure ain't today. Kindness may have been the status quo back in the day, but now it's about the rarest thing their is. Wanna be original?? Stop calling me a know it all, and accept the fact that i just want to make people smile, and maybe make their day a little brighter. America has become a foreign Country, it's time to get back to the basics.

Seriously people, the reason you are so sick, is because of that thing you told others to let go of five years ago, when you youreslf haven't gotten over it yet. The reason you are so depressed is because hatred envelopes you from head to toe, crippling you more and more with each passing day. Learn to smile again, learn to laugh again (but not at someone elses expense. Be original, i'm no know it all, quite the opposite actually, i admit i know nothing, maybe that's why i'm so happy. Ya'll got it completely wrong, i ain't selfish, but selfless. If i didn't speak up, then i'd be selfish. Many get it, but many more don't. Wake up people, you are only hurting yourselves.

Take the small piece of chicken tonight. you've been eating the big piece your whole life, give others who deserve it more the chance to have the big piece. Who knows, you may even find that the smaller piece tastes better. Or you may not, that doesn't matter, what matters is the fact that your mom who has taken the small piece her whole life feels appreciated fully for the first time in her life. She deserved it years ago, but the important thing isn't the past, but the present, and the future.

i know, i know, i should start my own greeting and inspirational card company. "Koombaya cards." lol iv'e been told that many times, and laughed it off. Now i'm thinking their might actually be something to it. i'll put Hallmark out of business!

Brad Russ · 10-20-2011, 02:22 AM

A cool thing i learned recentely is how the greatest miracles are the "small ones" i use to enjoy sharing the "big miracles" most, mostly out of ego sadly. God personally talking to me, etc. i felt like that would be a way to make the most impact on people. Instead i learned that it's actually quite the opposite. God talking to you is certainly huge obviously, doesn't get bigger, but most people can't relate, thus, it doesn't affect them much. Tell them a story about a lonely girl who you smiled at, and how seven years later, you finally saw her again, and couldn't take your eyes off of her for some reason. Then she smiled, and you knew, she was that little girl who you smiled at when she was a kid. This stuff we can all relate to, thus it touches the most people.

Don't blame it on the dog. All he ever did was love you, and lick your stinky toes. You both know it was you!! lol

Brad Russ · 10-23-2011, 11:16 AM

LET IT SHINE!!!

Brad Russ · 10-25-2011, 07:50 AM

i have had MANY threaten me with my past. Before it scared me, and made me their sevant. Now when they threaten me, i laugh, and forget about it, and i say do what you do. Whatever makes you feel good. i got over it months ago, more importantely, so did Jesus. i suggest you do the same.

i recommend this advice for everyone. Our past doesn't define us, our present, and future does!

Brad Russ · 10-27-2011, 05:19 PM

When you are right with God, you never have to defend yourself, HE will take care of that!!!

Live everyday with purpose, on purpose.

How can you tell a con-artist from the real deal?? By the results.

St. Matthew 7:16

"By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them." Jesus Christ

Thanks for sharing Tara and ponytail. Never heard either before. Great advice though!!

We have all become prophets. This world has become so predictable, that we usually know what a persons answer will be, before they say it.
