What Did Ya' Lose This Week ?

How did you finish the week? What did you lose this week?

Certainly the topic of most conversation has been the current "economic crisis" in our country as well as the world.
So...what did you lose this week ?

Thousands of dollars.....going to have to work another lifetime? Did you find yourself "lighter" this week....maybe not just in the hip pocket, but what about your weight perhaps ? Hopefully you didn't lose your keys or your favorite coffee mug or something of that nature !

I lost a couple of running days due to an unexpected visit from Achilles Tendonitis ! Please don't weep openly...!

We spend an entire lifetime trying to hold on to things don't we ? We work & save so as to not lose a retirement...we put keys in the "same ol' spot" so they won't be lost. We tag our pets...some tag their clothes ..the list goes on & on.

Our gain or "will to succeed "drives us doesn't it.....Really think about that....."DOESN'T IT" ?

If you try to keep your life for yourself, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for me, you will find true life. And how do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul ? Is anything worth more than your soul ?
