What Does Onward & Upward Mean to You?
Well you know, it’s in this time Leslie, what’s happening in this world and surely with COVID but onward and upward is truly what it is. Not sitting, not waiting, not depending on one thing or the other, but being creative to take something and move it forward and keep pushing it forward.
And that keeps you in the drive of, I got to keep always hearing and listening for God to give me something else, give me something different than I was thinking.
So, as He pushes you upward it’s you can’t help but keep moving forward and it’s all just all in the same cycle of the same thing.
I wake up every morning, I thank God every day of him giving me an opportunity that me getting up, getting upward and just putting on my clothes and getting onward and on with the business on with life, on with loving and caring for everyone and enjoying my coffee.
