I've always liked Tiger Woods. When he plays I like to watch. It's about the only time I like to watch golf.Like everyone else I was pretty disappointed when I learned about all his sleazy behavior. His long silence following all the revelations was a little frustrating and troubling, but he finally spoke. I listened, and I think we have to take him at his word. He said that his actions would be the thing to watch. We all will be watching, but in the meantime we operate on the basis of forgiveness, remembering our own failures and imperfections.
Kenny Perry a member of the Church of Christ in Franklin, KY and a great golfer who gives 5 percent of his earnings to Lipscomb University has spoken about Tiger. It is a message of redemption, forgiveness, and family.
Here is the heart of the article:
Perry admitted that he thought the world number one would chose to return at the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill next week, but is just glad that Woods will soon be back to boost the game once again.
"Well that's great, it's great news," he told Sky Sports News.
"I figured he'd come back next week at Bay Hill since he lives there and he's won it six times I think.
"But whatever, it's awesome to have your stud back, our star. He carried our tour, I thank him every day because my pay-check has really risen because of him and our sport really grew because of him."
Perry continued: "We all forgive him, he's come back and we're his family out here.
"You know I tell everybody I've got my family at home, but I've got my tour family that I travel with week-in, week-out. We're like a travelling circus, we travel different cities but we're all together.
"I just want to give the guy a hug, give him a handshake and get him on back out here playing great golf again. I want to beat him!"
Good stuff!

The First Day
==============
Today is the first day of spring.
Spring is heralded by the vernal equinox.
An equinox happens when day and night are exactly equal.
Equinoxes occur twice each year.
On this day, light and darkness are equal.
In our lives,
we often have a tendency to let the darkness overpower the light.
Remember,
there is just as much light as there is darkness.
The thing about spring, from tomorrow forward, the light of
each day increases while the darkness decreases.
Remember that.
You can choose which part you live in.
You can choose which part you will focus on.
Which part will you live in and focus on?
...light or darkness?
The light is increasing.
Remember that.
