Living Life with Integrity

Written by Lovelyn on January 10, 2012 – 7:03 pm -

slow down, slow down, slow...

Integrity is not a conditional word. It doesn’t blow in the wind or change with the weather. It is your inner image of yourself, and if you look in there and see a man who won’t cheat, then you know he never will.
– John D. MacDonald

The other day I listened to a podcast interview with a couple who had given up everything they had to preserve their integrity. As a result of their actions they lost their jobs, friendships and even weakened their relationships with extended family members because they couldn’t continue to support something they knew wasn’t true.

Sunset on the Beach

The following is a guest post by Gina Williams from MotorcycleAccident.org.

A couple of years ago, a friend of mine lost his life doing something many of us do often: speeding. Unfortunately, he happened to be doing it on a motorcycle on a highway overpass.

Boycott BP

Written by Lovelyn on May 24, 2010 – 12:22 pm -

This whole oil spill thing makes me so angry I can’t even see straight. Eleven people have died and oil continues to leak into the Gulf of Mexico. I think everyone should boycott BP. BP owned brands include Castrol, Arco, Aral, am/pm, Amoco,  Wild Bean Cafe, and  Safeway gas. If you feel too apathetic to actually boycott them here’s some motivation.
