Day’s Verse:
Every time you criticize someone, you condemn yourself. It takes one to know one. Judgmental criticism of others is a well-known way of escaping detection in your own crimes and misdemeanors. But God isn’t so easily diverted. He sees right through all such smoke screens and holds you to what you’ve done.
Romans 2:1-2 (context)

Yes, I took my first fall leaving the train station. I wore two layers of pants and a pair of gloves, so my left hand sustained a deep and painful bruise (but no blood) and my right knee sustained an equally deep bruise and started bleeding, although my pants did not rip. I got back on my bike and rode to work.
Happier note: Some of these six-word stories are great.
There’s something about falling that makes you want to cry. . . even if you aren’t hurt.
Ouch!! Did you cry? XXXOOO
I whimpered and it took a while to get up, but I didn’t cry. Although I did want to.
i appreciate your six word story/title
Ouch! Watch out for that gravel.
As long as I am giving out lame advice, here is a possible topic for a future blog: If you knew you were not going to be around much longer and wanted to give advice to a young person just starting out in life, what would you say? Would you give specific advice on how to fix a flat tire or how to bake a perfect Angel Food cake? Would you give financial advice? Spiritual advice? Would you compile an encyclopedia of advice or write a pithy paragraph? Or, as Robert Fulghum said, would you simply advise, “Flush!”
And here I didn’t even mean to make a six-word story out of the title. Or should I just claim the accidental brilliance?
