In life when you encounter a problem... "Build a bridge and get over it!"
Recently my nephew married. Both he and his new wife are studying to become ministers. They both spent the last year doing internships at churches in Texas. During the rehersal dinner the bride spoke of her internship and some of the problems she encountered. She told us all one of the best pieces on advise she received was to just "build a bridge and get over it".

As I stop and contemplate this piece of advise I realize its true value. Too many times we stew over a problem and think well if I had only done this or if she or he had only done that. We can not live in the past nor can we change it. Also we can not always change the people we must deal with. Therefore, we must just "Build a bridge and get over it!"

Thanks Andrea for the great advice!
