USED TIRE WORLD

  • Inspiration comes in many forms.  God blessed me with inspiration one day as I was on my way to work.. Sitting at a stop light early one morning I just happened to glance over to my right and saw this "Used Tire World" sign.  And like a bullet to my head, I began to smile and in a nano second I thought , "Ain't that the truth!"  "Used Tire world ".....wow...... That was exactly how I felt for so long, like a old used tire....because physically, mentally, and spiritually I was so empty.  ....Sort of Flat...it was actually a spiritual moment, for God was getting my attention, God was inspiring me.  I was being kept in spirit of the moment.  I can remember through the years and pick out moments of clarity, but I always attributed those with either too much coffee, or one of the many substances I might have be using at the time....lol...
  •  For some, addiction is no laughing matter, and making light of it upsets them, well.....I am not one of those....I have cried all the tears I can, and Lord knows I've produced enough misery for not only myself ,but to those who knew and loved me.  That is why I am smiling like a idiot at the benign sign with the huge red letters.."USED TIRE WORLD."   Inspiration has me smiling and it was at this same moment I wondered where did that thought come from?.. To be inspired is to be in spirit.  It started me asking myself, where is the source of that type of thinking?....How does it arrive?..Why does it arrive?  But most of all, What do I do with it?...
  • It has taken me many years, good and bad situations to see the "truth" about the first question.  In the past, "I" would always take credit...."I" was the center of the universe, and "I" was in control....(let me say right now, this attitude, kind of didn't work out)....  At this stage in my life I am probably only in control of my bladder, and that is also starting to go...lol.... 
  • God provides my inspiration.  It is that simple. Every good answer, every good option, everything that is good and every good choice I make is me, moving toward God......"USED TIRE WORLD"...all this came to me from these three small words. 
  • If inspiration can come to me from a sign, I can only imagine the wonderful possibilities and the endless joy that a life with God first will bring me.....I think is is time to change the tires on my "spiritual ride."   God bless.....     TRAMPDOWN LOG..28 MAY,2012
