Poor Living in a Rich Man's Country

"I've never been poor, only broke. Being poor is a frame of mind. Being broke is a temporary situation." -Mike Todd

In my opinion what Mike Todd is saying, is that people are never poor. They are just broke and that only lasts temporarily because it will only be a spell that you are going through where you might not have much to your name. I believe that no one is ever poor because if they have a good state of mind or wisdom, their soul is still rich. Being broke make refer to money. Do you feel like you have to be underpaid or overpaid in this world to survive?

It's In His Hands

"We may throw the dice, but the Lord determines how they fall"-Proverbs 11:33

We may have in mind what we want to do in life, but the Lord is the ultimate decider of how everything will go & if you'll actually be able to do so. We can do all that we want, but it's still in His hands. Have you ever been in a situation where you thought that everything you did was just right, but still in the end found yourself come up short? Why do you think this happened?

Facebook & Your Privacy

Do you have a Facebook,Twitter,or Tumblr page? Do you feel as if it's an invasion of your privacy if someone looks on your page & judges you off of what you post? I'm kind of neutral on this topic because I feel that what you post is how you feel at the moment and if someone judges you off of it they're making an assumption. I'd rather someone approach me & ask me about what I said. Then again, a person should still be aware of what he/she posts.

Mississippi Has Been In The Negative Light Once Again

Some Mississippians would state that once again we, as a state, have been acknowledged for something negative. If it's not for Mississippi being the fattiest state or for have a number of STDs, we've been noticed now for the actions of our former governor, Haley Barbour. In his last days of office, Barbour pardoned over 200+ inmates including those convicted of murder. This sparked a lot of controversy. I feel as if what he did is wrong because if those were proven guilty of murder, why would you put them back onto the streets? Barbour reasoning behind that said that he believes in second chances. I believe in second chances but I'd rather have him had given pardons to those inmates that had drug possession charges. It's very wrong in my opinion. Barbour knew of the problems that would arise & basically kept with the saying,"Go out with a big BANG"! Would you rather him have given the pardons to people with lesser crimes or cold,stone hearted murderers ??
