A Must read before you step out this morning!!... An elderly carpenter was ready to retire, he told his employer contractor of his plans to leave the house building business to live a more leisurely life with his wife and enjoy his extended family. He would miss the pay check each week but he wanted to retire.. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go, and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favour... The carpenter said yes but over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work anymore. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career.. When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to inspect it, and then handed the front door key to the carpenter and said “This is your house, my gift to you” The carpenter was shocked. What a shame if he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently...... So it is with us, we build our lives, a day at a time often putting less than our best into the building. Then with a shock we realize we have to live in the house we have built. If we could do it over, we would do it much differently. But, you cannot go back. You are the carpenter and every day you hammer a nail, place a board or and erect a wall. Someone once said “Life is a do-it yourself project.” Your attitude and the choices you make today help build the house you will live in tomorrow.. Therefore, as you step out today to take on whatever your goals might be, please make sure you BUILD WISELY!... Because you will be actually building your future..... Good morning!!!....Wishing you all the best of this day!.. Your Homeboy..............D.Masta.
