    Frankly Speaking

    By W. Frank Wilson

    Some folk will light up a room when they enter it, others light up the room when they leave it!

    We are all guilty at some point of holding onto things and people long past their usefulness.

    Every now and then you need to take inventory of your emotional self your spiritual self your financial self your Entire …Self!

    You might ask yourself, Self, what kind of condition is my condition in?

    You can BS me but you can’t BS…Self!

    It’s good to know that you’re not all you can be but you’re a helluva lot better than you once were  It’s no accident that the song says.

    Please Be Patient With Me.

    If you’ve reached perfection this ain’t for you, this is for who understand I’m in good shape for the shape I’m in but I am also a Work In Progress.

    If you Wake Up, Get Up if you See something Speak Up it there’s opportunity Step Up.

    But if all you have is complaints and criticism Shut Up!

    If your hands are on the oars rowing the boat you don’t have a free hand to rock the boat.

    The times we find ourselves in requires us to be our best selves and demand the best from others.
