Wednesday


This morning as I was doing my morning reading, I stumbled upon a story that shocked me.  It explained a man’s motto on how he lives his life – DRINK, STEAL, SWEAR, & LIE.  I really couldn’t believe what I was reading!  How could someone actually publicize that they were going to live their life as something society sees as a negative?  Why would this man make himself a target for people to judge him?
After processing the words that I read, I believe that I’ve just found the new motto for my life.  From this moment on, I’ve adopted the DRINK, STEAL, SWEAR, & LIE mentality.  I won’t make any apologies for choosing to live my life this way.  I believe that if more people adopted this motto, the world would be a better place. 
In simple terms, he says that people should:
1.         ‘Drink’ from the everlasting cup every day.
2.        Steal’ a moment to help someone that is in a worse position than you.
3.        Swear’ that you will be a better person today than yesterday.
4.        And last, but not least, when you ‘Lie’ down at night thank God you are alive and have freedom.
I admit that I was a little judgmental before I read the entire story, but once I read it I completely understand why he lives his life this way.  It is a very interesting way to turn actions that are perceived as negative or bad habits into positive events in your life…and someone else’s life.
This story couldn’t have come at a better time for me.  They say that God works in mysterious ways.  This story has confirmed that statement for me.  As I struggle to walk my chosen path, I need constant inspiration and reminders of how and why I need to live right.  This way of life may not be for everyone, but I can tell you that this is definitely for me.  In 2011, I can see great things happening and through it all I will be sure to Drink, Steal, Swear, and Lie.
