Going to Church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.
.
I like this quote because I can apply it to almost all walks of my life. I can change the words a little and wallah I have a complete new thought. For instance:
.
Having a painting on your wall doesn't make you a painter any more than having a half finished one on your easel for over a year.
.
I mean like does it really - right, huh. I like to tell people I paint but if I'm really honest with myself I should ask myself "when?" even though I have quite a few on my walls as do each of my seven children - its been since 2008 that I actually finished one. What's the definition of a painter or artist anyway? - Right?
.
Or the one I'm working on now: Having a story half written on your computer doesn't make you an author any more than having a bookshelf.
.
- Right? I can say I'm writing a book and I'm a writer but until I get one published - I'm really not an author... DANG!
.
So with that thought I leave you to go work on my writing... my goal is to one day FINISH this! :O}
