I don't know of too many Clint Eastwood movies that I do not like. I like the old spaghetti westerns, the Dirty Harry movies, Gran Torino, etc. I am not a fan of the "Any which way but loose" and "Every which way you can" or whatever but for the rest, I like them.
Now, I have my favorite scenes from various Clint movies but we won't go into those. What I like about his movies are the fact that he doesn't try to be something that he's not, with the exceptions previously mentioned. Clint's not a pretty boy, he's not a dancer, he's not a trumpeter (though he is a classic pianist). No, Clint stuck to roles that he could do.
With that in mind, today's word is a thought and a quote from the great American, Clint Eastwood - Do all you can but remember that you cannot do it all. In the words of Clint Eastwood, "A man's gotta know his limitations."
There are going to be folks that want you to do more, that want you to do what they want you to do, that want to guilt you into doing something that you know you can't do. Listen, "NO" is not a bad word, don't be afraid to use it. Yes, there are plenty of worthy causes out there that need someone to help. But, nothing is more worthy than doing what you should do for GOD, and that begins with being the family member that you should be.
Hey, there are a lot of things that I can do; there are even more that I cannot. There are only twenty-four hours in a day; I cannot make anymore. Spend some time doing the important things. Learn that "NO" isn't bad. Learn your limitations.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
