Wednesday, July 25, 2018 ― The Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day! Good "Wednesday" Morning to All!
Today is: "Storms to Clear a Path Day!" Why Not?
"You're in the middle of a storm, coming out of a storm or heading into a storm. Life can be very unforgiving. Things will happen to us that are very unexpected. You can never fully prepare for the storms, but over time and with patience you will grow from it and learn from it." ― COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "Not all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path. ~Amen~ ― Unknown Author
"The heart of man is very much like the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides and in its depths it has its pearls too" ― Vincent van Gogh
"We live in a world that is beyond our control, and life is in a constant flux of change. So we have a decision to make: keep trying to control a storm that is not going to go away or start learning how to live within the rain." ― Glenn Pemberton
"Sometimes, God drives us to Prayer and Scripture not for answers to the struggles, but for anchors in the storms." ― Todd Stocker
"When it's all quiet, that's when you need to watch out for storms." ― Anthony T. Hincks
"The turbulent nature of the storm is always second to the loving nature of God. Therefore, while an umbrella might keep me dry, it is God who dries the umbrella." ― Craig D. Lounsbrough
"Storms don't come to teach us painful lessons, rather they were meant to wash us clean." ― Shannon L. Alder

How often do we get caught up in storms of one type or another? It is also interesting to note how some ride the storm out, hide from it, or run from it. When it is all quiet that is when you need to watch out for storms is a very true statement. Like that one the best- have a great Wednesday Col

Very true.
Hey is it just my android app, or has RP changed so that you can't vote up comments after the first one?

Thanks for confirming I'm not crazy (that's always a possibility of course). Hate the thought of going back to desktop, Android tablet just so much more convenient. Guess I just won't be voting on comments.

"There are some things you learn best in calm and some in storm." ~Willa Cather
We don't find our strength by going unchallenged in life. Storms can help us find our courage, our compassion, our connection to God or the promise of another day in the rainbow. What have you learned from a storm in your life?

COL Mikel J. Burroughs
Lt Col Charlie Brown Great response. We defintely can't through life without being challenged. Like I said in my quote, the storm is coming, it's here now, or it's passed already, but you can count one showing up - that's for sure. You have a great Wedneday evening Charlie. Say, "hi" to Tom for me. Thanks.

SFC Dagmar Riley
I’ve learned through all the storms I’ve had so far, that with prayer and faith in God I can either get through it or live with it and still have a good life; Army training helped a lot too to have perseverance, never to give up and being motivated to keep going when the going gets tough because there’s always someone out there in a far worse situation than I am.
