A web site worthy of a bookmark!

I have been following Greg Stier's site for a few weeks now and find it is filled with great stuff. Some of it is very funny, some is heavy and makes me think, most of it is like food that helps to feed my soul. Check it out www.gregstier.org
And that is what inspires me smile.

Time to trade the gas guzzler in

It was time to make the big decision ,keep the 2005 Kia Sportage that was paid in full, but got terrible gas milage on city driving (which is where I work). Or Trade it in while It was still fairly new and worth something for a more fuel effient car. The last think I wanted was a car payment. What to do What to do?? I was nice to have a 4X drive vechical, but it doesn't snow much anymore. I was nice to have room to haul things, but could we find that in a more fuel efficient car? Time to go out and see. Our internet research lead us to Eisenhauer Nissian in Wernersville. We drove a 2007 dodge Caliber and after talking with the salesmen who seemed to want to work with us, the decison was made. Time to trade.
Meet our new 2007 Dodge Caliber. This car is sweet, and that is from someone who isn't that into cars. Heated leather seats, chill zone for beverages, cvt transmission, 2.7 liter. Everything we were looking for it still have storage room in the back and has power, but it is very fuel effient esp. on city driving with the transmission that doesn't change gears. And the best thing It was all but an even trade. If you are lookiing for a car see Dan Hassler at Eisenhauer Nissian, we enjoyed working with him.
That is what inspires me to smile.

food for thought

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
--Galatians 5:22-23

One evening, an older Cherokee Indian told his grandson about a terrible battle inside every person. He said, “My son, the battle is between two wolves inside of us all. One is evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, lies, pride, and superiority.”

His grandson asked, “What is the other wolf?”

The elderly man said, “It is good?peace, joy, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.”

The man’s young grandson thought for a moment and then asked, “Which wolf wins?”

The wise Cherokee man replied, “The one you feed the most.”
