Happy Hump Day, Y’All!
Still, so much craziness going on around town, so to speak, probably in your towns, too! An attempted murderer was accidentally let out of Miami-Dade County Jail yesterday after being convicted on Monday for attempting to murder his girlfriend! Luckily, he walked into a hospital in Miami last night and the people there recognized him from the newscasts and story and he kind of turned himself in.
Simon Cowell on the “X-Factor” had let a young lady go from appearing on the “live shows” who was apparently one of the best singers in the whole line up. So, he admitted his mistake and flew to Florida and took a limousine to Sunrise, FL where the young lady and her family had no idea he was going to come and ask her to rejoin the program’s first season’s finalist! The young lady and her family were ecstatic.
Have you ever made a mistake with something or someone and KNEW that you needed to correct it? Did you? Many humans have a tendency to hold on to their pride …. or even let greed take over their senses and KEEP whatever it is that they know they do NOT deserve. I have been there, done that, and gotten the t-shirt and still struggle with that syndrome from time to time.
