Cybersalt News
Sunday greetings everyone!
A big shout out to Barb L., who lives a bit south of where I grew up in Ontario. She asked how to share newsletter items on Facebook. Most of us were told as children that sharing is good, but I think sharing Cybersalt items is "grrrreat!" (I hope Tony the Tiger agrees!) But what wasn't great about her asking was the realization I didn't have any tool on the site to make sharing easy.
So I added one!
So Barb, and others, if you want to share an item from the newsletter, simply click or tap on that item's title, wait for it's corresponding web page to open, and then use the Facebook share button (or one of the other provided social media buttons) to share it along.
As I said a few days ago to the young receptionist at my chiropractor's office, "You got it Pontiac!" (She had no idea what I was referring to."
Today's video share is something new I learned of this past week: drone light shows. If you follow me on my personal Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/cybersalt), a few days ago you saw the drone light show I shared from New Year's Eve in Scotland. This video is of a drone light show in Russia.

Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Award Shows
Can you believe how many award shows they have now? It seems like they have an award show for everything.
They even have awards for commercials! The Clio Awards, a whole show full of commercials.
I recorded it and then I fast-forwarded through the whole thing.

Romance is Dead
He claimed he loved her, but would not give up his life for her.
That is, he declared, his undying love for her.

Life's Tug of War
Life can seem ungrateful ~ and not always kind.
Life can pull at your heartstrings ~ and play with your mind.
Life can be blissful ~ and happy and free.
Life can put beauty ~ in the things that you see.
Life can place challenges ~ right at your feet.
Life can make good ~ of the hardships that we meet.
Life can overwhelm you ~ and make your head spin.
Life can reward those ~ determined to win.
Life can be hurtful ~ and not always fair.
Life can surround you ~ with people who care.
Life clearly does offer ~ its ups and its downs.
Life's days can bring you ~ both smiles and frowns.
Life teaches us to take ~ the good with the bad.
Life is a mixture ~ of happy and sad.
So.....
Take the life that you have ~ and give it your best.
Think positive, be happy ~ let God do the rest.
Take the challenges ~ that life has laid at your feet.
Take pride and be thankful ~ for each one you meet.
To yourself give forgiveness ~ if you stumble and fall.
Take each day that is dealt you ~ and give it your all.
Take the love that you're given ~ and return it with care.
Have faith that when needed ~ it will always be there.
Take time to find the beauty ~ in the things that you see.
Take life's simple pleasures ~ let them set your heart free.
The idea here is simply ~ to even the score.
As you are met and faced with ~ Life's Tug Of War.

Featured Illustrations are items well suited for illustrating or inspiring a point in a sermon, speech, or devotional. Funny, moving, or perhaps even graphic, the point of them is the point you make with them.

Well, Here We Go Again
I have lived long enough to know that the only change that has any kind of reality is the change in my pocket. I keep track of that change with great supervision and count it every day.
When people tell me that this is a New Year and there will be a lot of changes this year, I search my pocket because that's the only change I want to know about.
Looking back over my life, the most significant change that ever came to me was the day I said “I do” to the future Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage. At the time, and it’s good for me that I didn’t know, I didn’t know what “I do” really meant.
