Fortune cookie wisdom

     “It’s amazing how much good you can do if you don’t care who gets the credit.”

     Believe it or not that lovely gem of wisdom was in my fortune cookie tonight.   It struck a chord with me.  I know many people who climb atop the wall and crow about their accomplishments expecting pats on the back and plenty of ‘atta boys.  They don’t impress me.

    The people I admire the most are the ones who work hard, keep their heads down, and seldom take credit for their good works. 

     Sort of reminds me of many of our military men and women.  Hey, remember to take a moment and thank a soldier the next time you see one. 

     Hugs all!

  1. I was in Sheetz (our version of your WAWA store) about 6 months ago with a friend and there were some service men in there. We went up to them and thanked them for their service. This doesn’t have to be done on special days like D-Day, Memorial Day, Veteran’s Day. We need to thank them 365 out of the year. They don’t get holidays off like so many of us do.
    I’m with you. I value my freedoms and I want them to know it.
