Ribbon's Thoughts on Struggling, Persevering & Living

Crisis is here. Corruption is on the rise. So why are the high officials continuing to sweep the wrongdoing under the rug? They must be corrupt too. So what's really causing the crisis? It's all about greed.

We have become to lustful of our neighbours' goods and are trying to reach much farther than we can extend. I watch others to learn from their mistakes and to get good ideas. I am too much of a simple person to dig myself that kind of trouble. There are certain things that I want but I have to refrain from getting them because I simply cannot afford it. Where I can make a sacrifice, I will but it most cases it is far beyond me. I have to seek simple solutions to pull me out of the hole so that I can climb forward.

I never want to be a disappointment and therefore I need to live within my means so noone does not have to open the newspaper to hear that I have stolen or defrauded anyone. There is a lot of funny business and apparently we need to be mindful of the friends we keep. My friends are all progressive and are seeking to do positive things. I wish to remain that way too. I can only hope that those caught in corruption will change their ways. When you acquire by illwill, it never lasts.

I have had to work hard for everything that I have. Some people feel that I don't deserve it. It is God's will and if the Lord decides that I am to move on, so be it. I know the 'wants' that I have sacrificed, the trips to Red Cross, the walking that I have done and I am happy to say that I feel blessed to have lived simply but yet enjoyed life. I am glad to share my story as well.  As I move forward with the blessings that God has given to me, I can only smile. I know trials will continue but I go in faith.
