Public Service Announcement

This is a public service announcement brought to you by Niki Devereaux:

Niki is once again single. I'm writing to you to let you know that:

a) While it was totally unexpected and blindsided me, I'm in complete agreeance and the break up was mutual
b) No, I do not want to discuss details, because I want to respect Charles and the relationship we had and neither of us need to be exploited
c) God has granted me an overwhelming peace to deal with this situation
d) While this may seem a totally heartless and cruel way to announce the news, and contrary to how it appears, I AM in fact sad and missing him; I'm so emotionally spent from retelling the story and being bombarded that this was the best way to let you all know how it is
e) Finally, please keep me in your prayers, that 1) God would continue to grant me peace in this situation and, 2) that God would make himself incredibly real to me in the weeks to come

Sweetheart, call it mothers intuition, I knew you needed some hugs, that's why I sent some. Sorry I can't be there to actually give them to you. Better to figure it out now, then too late. XOXOXO!!!!!!

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
You cannot live your life other than walking in the truth. Your means are as important as your ends.
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do.
Do not be wise in words - be wise in deeds.
Well done is better than well said.
No man is above the law and no man below it.
Truth is not determined by majority vote.
I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar. (Robert Brault)
Habit is habit and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs a step at a time. (Mark Twain)
Compassion is a foundation for sharing our aliveness and building a more humane world.
It's time for greatness - not greed. It's a time for idealism - not ideology. It is a time not just for compassionate words, but compassionate action.
Thou shalt not be a victim. Thou shalt not be a perpetrator. Above all, thou shalt not be a bystander.
When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to PREVENT human misery rather than AVENGE it?
Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.
I don't see the point of being a human being if you're not going to be responsible to your fellow human beings. Selfishness thefts away the human and reduces you to just a being.
Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
Every saint has a past and every sinner, a future.
Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Everywhere you go preach the gospel and if necessary use words.
