Oh, Be Wise...

Sometimes...
  • bad things happen to good people
Occasionally...
  • good people do bad things
Every now and then...
  • people do stupid things without getting caught
Eventually...
  • most people get "caught" when they choose to do stupid things
Sometimes...
  • you can play with "fire"
Frequently...
  • the "fire" wins
My sister told me the father of her grandson overdosed on drugs this past weekend. He died. He was 25 years old. He was from a good family. He was a returned missionary. He was a good-hearted person. He was a loving father. Somewhere along the way he made some stupid choices and kept making them until they eventually killed him. He is gone. His son has lost his father. His father has lost his son. A family is shattered, now trying to make sense of it all.

Remember, every choice has a consequence.

Good consequences are those which we seek.

Be Wise in the choices you make.


I love you,
Mama B

  1. Thank you for your comment on my blog. The bridge that we were in front of is in the Lagoon Trail in Farmington.

    So sorry to hear of this difficult loss for your sister and her son.

    This is an inspiring post with such insight. Thank you.
