The Coward of the County

Good morning my beautiful babies. I was driving to work this morning and listening to the song “The Coward of the County” and thinking of the movie of the same name. On the surface it’s a movie about a boy (Tommy) who promises his dying dad that he will not fight and get in trouble. He is picked on and called yellow for his entire life but then stands tall and beats crap out of the men who hurt his woman. It’s one of the best songs and best movies ever in my humble opinion. But there is more to it than that, and a lesson to be learned. One is that you can’t always judge people just on how they look or some of their actions. You have to look deeper and see people’s motives. See where they are coming from. And secondly, no one believes in Tommy. He may not even really believe in himself. But he does more than anyone thought he could. I think so often we look at ourselves and say “I can’t run for 30 minutes on the treadmill, I can’t do an hour on the elliptical, I can’t bench 225,” etc. But here is the thing… YOU CAN! I was told from the start I couldn’t raise two kids all on my own, but I am. You have to work hard, you have to have faith in yourself, you have to stay positive and NEVER give up. You can move mountains if you just stay positive and never give up. You were not created for failure but for VICTORY!!! You are a winner my love. And you are absolutely gorgeous, sexy, hot and did I say GORGEOUS!!! You are stunningly gorgeous! So work hard and believe in yourself. I will be right here rooting you on. This cowboy is your biggest fan. I love you dearly.

Blessings,
Ed
