a wisdom "tweet" I liked


saw this little gem on twitter....

 

You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.
****************************************************************

My take:

What speaks louder about a person....their actions or their words???  what they DO or what they SAY?????   If a person's actions do not match their words, I see they are not good for their word.....Not a match for me...

As I grow in alanon, honesty, reliability, trustworthiness, honor are non negotiable...

...Just saying

Like it Neshema It is similar to the idea that in order to recover "We Must Walk the Walk and not Just Talk the Talk".

I can't take credit. Betty passed it on to us at a thread I wrote (I think.  This is the gal who regularly misplaces her keys). Regardless - I like both slogans I see today. I agree - one liners can be a big help. Thanks, Rose. Hi, elcee.
