“He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else." –Benjamin Franklin
Life can come at you fast.
There can be things that are unavoidable and trip you up.
You can fall flat on your face and maybe even lose a little skin off of your nose in the process. You can feel more than a little embarrassed.
The most important thing is what happens next.
You can lay in the road and blubber.
You can whine and lament your lousy luck.
Or you can you get back up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.
Finding excuses is habit-forming. There are plenty of temptations to point a finger and rattle off all of the factors involved in your slip-up. It is embarrassing to have to take full ownership for your situation, but you will be better off. Insist that in those things that you can control, that the proverbial buck stops here! Forget the excuse-making and instead look for ways to get back into the thick of things where you can achieve and contribute.
2 Thessalonians 3:10, The Message (MSG): "Don’t you remember the rule we had when we lived with you? ‘If you don’t work, you don’t eat.’ And now we’re getting reports that a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings are taking advantage of you. This must not be tolerated. We command them to get to work immediately – no excuses, no arguments – and earn their own keep. Friends, don’t slack off in doing your duty.”

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
