"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wager payer".... Abraham Lincoln
As a small business owners..this says a lot..no, we are not rich, in fact far from it. In order to keep our employees working, we need to keep from being so over taxed and regulated that we cannot do this. We covet your prayers for our small business, and for our Country!
My quote is along different lines as others, as I guess my days of "Mommy" have faded, and the joys of being Gramma have replaced them.
Also, as a small business owner at this time, this quote is very relevant to my time in life, at least the earthly carnal part.
I know, my "politics's" is showing.. bear with me!!
In perspective, I know I have still stored my real " riches in heaven". And next Sunday, I will go lighter on my choice of quotes!
OK, here is the rest of this. I am new to this, but this is how it works, if you are a Newbie like me!
