A successful business man was growing old
and knew it was time to choose a successor to take over the business.
Instead of choosing one of his Directors or his children, he decided to do something different. He called all the young executives in his company together. He said, "It is time for me to step down and choose the next CEO. I have decided to choose one of you. "The young executives were shocked, but the boss continued. "I am going to give each one of you a SEED today - one very special SEED. I want you to plant the seed, water it, and come back here one year from today with what you have grown from the seed I have given you. I will then judge the plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be the next CEO." One man, named Jim, was there that day and he, like the others, received a seed. He went home and excitedly, told his wife the story. She helped him get a pot, soil and compost and he planted the seed. Every day, he would water it and watch to see if it had grown. After about three weeks, some of the other executives began to talk about their seeds and the plants that were beginning to grow. Jim kept checking his seed, but nothing ever grew. Three weeks, four weeks, five weeks went by, still nothing. By now, others were talking about their plants, but Jim didn't have a plant and he felt like a failure. Six months went by -- still nothing in Jim's pot. He just knew he had killed his seed. Everyone else had trees and tall plants, but he had nothing. Jim didn't say anything to his colleagues, however, he just kept watering and fertilizing the soil - He so wanted the seed to grow. A year finally went by and all the young executives of the company brought their plants to the CEO for inspection. Jim told his wife that he wasn't going to take an empty pot. But she asked him to be honest about what happened. Jim felt sick to his stomach, it was going to be the most embarrassing moment of his life, but he knew his wife was right. He took his empty pot to the board room. When Jim arrived, he was amazed at the variety of plants grown by the other executives. They were beautiful -- in all shapes and sizes. Jim put his empty pot on the floor and many of his colleagues laughed, a few felt sorry for him! When the CEO arrived, he surveyed the room and greeted his young executives. Jim just tried to hide in the back. "My, what great plants, trees and flowers you have grown," said the CEO. "Today one of you will be appointed the next CEO!" All of a sudden, the CEO spotted Jim at the back of the room with his empty pot. He ordered the Financial Director to bring him to the front. Jim was terrified. He thought, "The CEO knows I'm a failure! Maybe he will have me fired!" When Jim got to the front, the CEO asked him what had happened to his seed - Jim told him the story. The CEO asked everyone to sit down except Jim. He looked at Jim, and then announced to the young executives, "Behold your next Chief Executive Officer! His name is Jim!" Jim couldn't believe it. Jim couldn't even grow his seed. "How could he be the new CEO?" the others said. Then the CEO said, "One year ago today, I gave everyone in this room a seed. I told you to take the seed, plant it, water it, and bring it back to me today. But I gave you all boiled seeds; they were dead - it was impossible for them to grow. All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and flowers. When you found that the seed would not grow, you substituted another seed for the one I gave you. Jim was the only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a pot with my seed in it. Therefore, he is the one who will be the new Chief Executive Officer!" * If you plant honesty, you will reap trust * If you plant goodness, you will reap friends * If you plant humility, you will reap greatness * If you plant perseverance, you will reap contentment * If you plant consideration, you will reap perspective * If you plant hard work, you will reap success * If you plant forgiveness, you will reap reconciliation So, be careful what you plant now; it will determine what you will reap later. Think about this for a minute....
If
I happened to show up on your door step crying, would you care?
If
I called you and asked you to pick me up because something happened, would
you come?
If
I had one day left to live my life, would you be part of that last day?
If
I needed a shoulder to cry on, would you give me yours?
This
is a test to see who your real
friends
are or if you are just someone to talk to you when they are bored.
Do
you know what the relationship is between your two eyes?
They
blink together,
they
move together,
they
cry together,
they
see things together,
and
they sleep together,
but
they never see each other;
....that's
what friendship is..
Your
aspiration is your motivation,
your motivation is your belief,
your
belief is your peace,
your
peace is your target,
your target is heaven, and life is like hard core torture without it! |

Amen Capitan Hill
Do you remember the scene?
The Senate.
Barbara Boxer hearing from a Brigadier General? Silly General!
Barbara Boxer hearing from a Brigadier General? Silly General!
He addresses Barbara as
"Ma'am", and she CORRECTS him, telling him she's "worked SO hard
to earn the title, "Senator", so please use that when speaking to
her.
Get a load of this letter!
Read the letter sent to Sen.
Barbara Boxer from an Alaskan Airlines pilot below. Many of us witnessed the
arrogance of Barbara Boxer on June 18, 2009 as she admonished Brigadier General
Michael Walsh because he addressed her as "ma'am" and not "Senator"
before a Senate hearing.
This letter is from a National Guard aviator and Captain for
Alaska Airlines named Jim Hill. I wonder what he would have said if he were
really angry. Long fly Alaska!
Babs:
You were so right on when you scolded the General on TV for using the term, "ma'am," instead of "Senator". After all, in the military, "ma'am" is a term of respect when addressing a female of superior rank or position. The General was totally wrong. You are not a person of superior rank or position. You are a member of one of the world's most corrupt organizations, the U.S Senate, equaled only by the U.S. House of Representatives.

Congress is a cesspool of liars, thieves, inside traders,
traitors, drunks (one who killed a staffer, yet is still revered), criminals,
and other low level swine who, as individuals (not all, but many), will do
anything to enhance their lives, fortunes and power, all at the expense of the
People of the United States and its Constitution, in order to be continually
re-elected. Many Democrats even want American troops killed by releasing
photographs. How many of you could honestly say, "We pledge our lives, our
fortunes and our sacred honor"? None? One? Two?
Your reaction to the General shows several things. First is your abysmal ignorance of all things military. Your treatment of the General shows you to be an elitist of the worst kind When the General entered the military (as most of us who served) he wrote the government a blank check, offering his life to protect your corpulent derriere, now safely and comfortably ensconced in a 20 thousand dollar leather chair, paid for by the General's taxes. You repaid him for this by humiliating him in front of millions.
Second is your puerile character, lack of sophistication, and arrogance, which borders on the hubristic.. This display of brattish behavior shows you to be a virago, termagant, harridan, nag, scold or shrew, unfit for your position, regardless of the support of the unwashed, uneducated masses who have made California into the laughing stock of the nation.

What I am writing, are the same thoughts countless millions of
Americans have toward Congress, but who lack the energy, ability or time to
convey them. Regardless of their thoughts, most realize that politicians are
pretty much the same, and will vote for the one who will bring home the most
bacon, even if they do consider how corrupt that person is. Lord Acton (1834 -
1902) so aptly charged, "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power
corrupts absolutely."
Unbeknownst to you and your colleagues, "Mr. Power" has had his way with all of you, and we are all the worse for it.
Finally, Senator, I, too, have a title. It is "Right Wing Extremist Potential Terrorist Threat." It is not of my choosing, but was given to me by your Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano, and you were offended by "ma'am"?
Have a fine day. Cheers!

Remember her most vile
