Avodah

First & foremost is the Truth. I truly believe the TRUTH shall set you free. This is true in regards to the origin of this saying, & in every other area of life. I don't know know that I'm an expert, but for many things I have been there; done that, & learned my lessons well. I have kids who are first in my life & I guard zealously. I try to be kind, but always honest, blunt and vocal, esp when it counts. I detest those who sit by & silently tolerate evil things b/c they are too weak to stand up for what is right. There seems to me in this world a plague of indifference. Everyone is so eager to be like all the other sheep, they never see beyond themselves. They don't condemn what is wrong, uphold what is right, & they certainly don't tolerate other sheep who 'rock the boat.' Love is patient, kind, trusts, hopes, perseveres, does not envy, boast, or be proud, not rude, not self-seeking, not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs, and... rejoices in the Truth.
