Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs Prompt: "What’s the greatest advice you’ve ever been given? What if you lived solely according to it?"

The greatest advice I have ever been given was to trust Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I did so and my life and my personality have completely changed. At one time I was addicted to drugs and I was the epitome of evil. I was a liar, a cheat, and a thief. I would steal from you and then help you look for whatever was stolen! I would fight at the drop of a hat and it did not matter to me who you were. I would fight a man, woman, or even a child. I believe I would have fought a buzz saw if it had crossed my path in some way. I was lazy, useless, and a drain on society. I used mental illness as a cover and spent my days getting loaded. I am not saying that mental illness did not play a role. I have bi-polar disorder and many addicts use to self-medicate. I may have done so as well. I do know that I often used mental illness as an excuse and used it to get my way. I no longer do so. Today I try to be a productive member of society. I hold down two jobs, go to college part time, and write for several websites including this one. Jesus is the one who changed all of it for me. When I was lost He found me and changed me into the person I am today. It was a slow process because I am hard headed and had a long way to come. I made it though and am continuing to grow in Christ.

I once seen a pink elephant. No, I literally see a pink elephant every time I go down Route 60 in Barboursville WV because there is one standing in the yard of an insurance agency here. It makes a terrific landmark. You simply say "Behind the pink elephant", "south of the pink elephant" or whatever and most people here know what you mean. We also had a bar called the Purple Pig and a place that has a huge green giraffe standing by it! You name your poison we probably have it!
