Martina McBride and George Strait performed a concert in my hometown last night. I was reading the article in this morning paper about the concert and thought the last paragraph was worth sharing with you. Martina is a Kansas girl, so what she was quoted as saying is not surprising.
She said, "Growing up here was one of the best things that ever happened to me. I think it is one of the reasons I am where I am today."
I think she is right. This is where Martina grew up, where she learned her values and work ethic. It helps when you are blessed with the talent she has, but it is still work. And she has worked hard.
Martina McBride hasn't forgotten where she came from. We should not either.
Today's Winning Thought: Remember where you came from, and the people who were around you. Be grateful for what you learned. Give back something when you are able.
