On November 1st 1959, the population of New York City was 8,042,783. If you laid all these people end to end, figuring an average height of five feet six & a half inches, they would reach from Times Square to the outskirts of Karachi, Pakistan. I know facts like this because i worked for an insurance company..

I believe that Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead, just as much as I believe that George Washington was the first president or Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address.

So proud of Logan. he has worked really really hard and passed off all 6 tasks for the Great American Challenge. Yea, I made him do all 6 but he had to do the work to make it happen. The challenge included, memorize the following:1. The Pledge 2. The Preamble 3. The US Presidents in order 4. The Gettysburg Address 5. The National Anthem and 6. The US States and Capitols. The hardest one? The Presidents.

Watching Lincoln and it struck a chord that my (amazing) farmer grandfather, who never had the luxury of going to college or barely even being educated to 12th grade level (taking care of the farm is first) could recite the Gettysburg address, perfectly, until the day he died. Truly something special.

As we ponder upon the choices we will make this coming election, the words of Abraham Lincoln and his Gettysburg Address still ring true today. Let there be freedom, let there be light and let truth prevail as every Malaysian is created equal and should be treated as such.
"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." Abraham Lincoln
"...this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government: of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." Abraham Lincoln

" The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." - Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg address

High standards and attention to detail are commendable; they show you take pride in your work. However, dyed-in-the -wool perfectionists take an all-or-nothing approach by finding fault and obsessing over how they could have done better. Case in point: after delivering one of history's most memorable speeches, Abraham Lincoln described his Gettysburg Address as a "flat failure." We're all imperfect; get used to it! We only "know in part" (1Co 13:19). So: (1) Give yourself permission to fail, in order to succeed. Henry Ford said, "Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again mire intelligently." (2) Though you're not likely to excel initially, don't be afraid to try. You won't get prefect results, but it will let you see that sometimes "average"can be progress. (3) Lighten up. Be forgiving of yourself, and extend grace to others. Emerson said, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds.' (4) Don't get bogged down n minutiae. Set a time limit, say, "I'm gong to give this thirty minutes." A well-known counselor says, "Have reasonable expectations do your best and encourage others to do the same. Flaws and imperfections determine your uniqueness. Relish them. Embrace them. You're human and God made you that way." The truth is, God doesn't judge our mistakes nearly as harshly as we do. He "remembers we are only dust." (Ps 103:14). He is the God of the second, third, fourth....chance. Live in His blessing and allow His favor to guide and direct you even through your mistakes.
