Mother Teresa

So I found this framed quote by Mother Teresa and I thought it should be better publicized. I have realized that happiness isn't about circumstance but about living life without regret for my Creator. You will always have regret when you live it for yourself.

People are often unreasonable and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motions.
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.
It never was between you and them anyway.
~Mother Teresa

Movie from the Campout

Here they are on the field

Dallas campout

This past weekend we had the opportunity through boy scouts to spend the night in the Dallas Cowboy stadium. We went down Friday and came home Sat. For 2 boys who don't know much about football, they had a blast! They loved being on the field and running around! They played flag football (of course), crab soccer, and tug of war. They had fitness lessons and earned 3 beltloops! Ryland did the situp, pushup, 50 yd dash and long jump to earn another one. They watched a movie on the big screen and lights out was at midnight. we slept on the ground in the endzone! Super fun and way softer than I thought it would be. (It is artificial turf but they have little rubber peices mixed in to make it nice and soft) It was really interesting! We got to go through the locker rooms and the interview rooms and all that stuff. We didn't get to meet any players though because of the lockout or something like that. (The players are not allowed to talk to staff right now while salaries are being negotiated. Thats all I know and it could be wrong;) But it was a fabulous time and I am so glad we went! The other kid in the pictures is Rylands friend Arron. It was his birthday that night too!
