Convincingly Convinced

I usually think that I am convinced of many things. For example, when I can't find something, and have looked everywhere for it, I am convinced that my brother has taken it for his own nefarious purposes. However, as I march to my brother's room to demand an account for his actions, I usually find it. Sometimes I jump to conclusions too quickly.

There are a few things, though, that I am absolutely convinced of:

1) God has a plan for my life, and He is involved in every detail of it.

2)It is not wise to automatically assume. (For example, if you notice a lady has recently put on a lot of weight, do not ask her when her baby is due.)

3)It does not matter how many times you explain to a sports fan the pointlessness of screaming helpful advice such as "RUN!" and "CATCH IT!" at the athletes on TV. A true sports fan will go right on yelling at the TV.

4)Movies watched for entertainment should have a happy ending.

5)Cake is good, but pie is better.

6)Houseguests are like fish. Both begin to go bad after three days.

7)It should be illegal for women over 50 to buy all their clothing from the junior's department.

8)Sandwiches always taste better if someone other than yourself makes them.

Of course, I have other beliefs of which I'm convinced, but Mrs.Powell specifically said that this post could not be boring. I hope you all enjoyed this litany. I'll see you Tuesday. :)

  3. HAHA! I loved this post!

    I think women over 25 shouldn't buy their clothes from the juniors' department!

    Also, I agree with the whole sandwhich thing. My excuse to get my mother to make something rather than myself is, "It always tastes better when YOU make it." HAHA!
