"You were not given a spirit of fear..."
Spiritual:
(paraphrased) "Be a good example. Your LIFE might be the only BIBLE some people EVER see." - (anonymous)
Other:
"You WILL get DOWN on your shinguards to block those pitches in the dirt, or NEXT inning YOU'LL be back behind the plate, and your CUP will be here in the dugout, zipped in your bat bag." - (...A mean baseball coach. Last name was "Wenger", I believe. P.S. - It worked.)
"You get outta line, and I'll introduce you to ALL FOUR WALLS of the garage." - (...My dad - to me. P.S. - It worked.)
"Meet success like a GENTLEMAN, and disaster like a MAN." - (some old French philosopher... I'll have to look up his name.)
"No blood? That's nothin' a little tape can't fix..." - (an old, less-than-stellar football coach, but a good attitude, none-the-less.)
"Mom, will you PLEASE make Jennifer shut up? She's talking just to hear ...Expand for more
herself make NOISE!" - (Me, to my mom about 40 yrs ago, regarding my favorite - and only - sibling. P.S. - It did NOT work... BUT, we're very close, now.)".
More about Jeff:"Sorry, Friends - I don't play the Mafia, Farmville or other games. Please don't take it personally. I've merely chosen to spend my incremental time elsewhere.
I am the proud father of three amazing sons. They're a daily blessing.
All are faith-filled, honest men with immense talents and varied personalities.
They are also extremely diligent and dedicated students... all in Honors classes & all have a cumulative GPA *above* a 4.0, (with the highest being a 4.4 GPA)!
They have continued in the Wenger traditions of music and/or baseball, and we also now have the very first Wenger wrestler. (Who'da guessed? Someone had to do it... the Ohio Wengers' branched out into college tennis...!).
As of now, one son will be earning his law degree with the goal of becoming an MLB General Manager. One will become an Engineer / Architect, and last, but not least... one will become a Surgeon.
Do NOT bet against them. Trust me on that...
Me? I'm a Survivor in these tough times. I work hard, play hard and TRY to be a good example and testimony through my life to my sons and others. I stumble, frequently. I've fallen. I've even been broken. But, I've always gotten back up, and I always will.
In the end, I believe that a repentant Believer with determination, a good heart and honest motives will justly receive the Ultimate Reward.
I hope to see you there...".
