Everyone enjoys some accolades every now & then..a good ol' pat on the back , an "atta boy" if you will.Contemporary Christian artist Nichole Nordeman says it this way in her hit song "Legacy" :
I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me & I enjoy an accolade like the rest..You can take my picture & hang it in a gallery of all who's who & so -n -so's that used to be the best @ such & such , it won't matter much..I won't lie it feels alright to see your name in lights ,we all need an "atta boy" or "atta girl"...
It's been awhile since I have mentioned the NWSC/KTR group...thought I'd give it a rest. Yesterday we had a nice 10 miler , enjoyed the day & good conversation as well as a nice running pace for our marathon training.
We even had an award presentation to our newest member Charlie. He earned the "Ten Ball" award...( we have another name for it , but not here ! ) ...he earned the award a week prior on a 20 mile jaunt , only a few days following some surgery ! After that we new he needed an "atta boy" ! He was overcome w/ emotion..( not really !) .
What about you ? Have you passed out accolades to someone lately ? Maybe expressed your appreciation to someone for a kind deed or something nice that was said ?
Although "temporary passings in this world" , we all enjoy a little praise from our peers. Look for someone to encourage this week...see what smile comes to their face...
Check out the song "Legacy"....I think you will agree..
