With great power comes great repsonsibility

I have been thinking about this a lot lately. Just different things I see going on and I think that people can do better, including myself I think of how I yell at the kids sometimes way too fast. I keep thinking well they know I am in pain, I am exausted and I explain to them all the time how I love them and wish I knew how to handle my pain better. I explain, that just as they do sometimes, I just do not express myself in the way that I should Anthony and I might have the slightess disagreement or he might ask some question that has such an obvious answer and I am just going off the deep end on him. Even though I know he also hasnt slept because he has been up rubbing my back, or holding me from my being so ill. He still has to get up and go to work with only three hours of sleep. Then I think of that quote. I think that parents have a great power over children. The things that we teach and show them mold them for life. Although you might explain one thing to a child, it still doesn't make the yelling any less easier to handle So I talked to the kids, and I have talked with myself and my God. Even though I have no patience left, even though I am so tired and even though I am angry that God allowed me to live in this pain another day, I can in no way let that reflect towards my children I thought this to be very profound and I wanted to know where this quote came from. Its all I hear latetly. On TV, in movies etc. So I looked it up (meaning I went to Google) and this is what I found: The recently published Yale Book of Quotations (Yale University Press) cites John Cumming, Voices of the Dead (1854): "Wherever there is great power ... There is great responsibility." The quote was actually a line from Spiderman 2. There are many similar quotes from people but this seems to be the actual origin of the quote. I dont know who John Cumming was but I will have to Google him when I get more time. I am thankful for that quote though It also applies to so many other things in ones life. I will do well to remember this quote and I think you would too Our Radio Stream = www.pumpupthebass.com Catch my show Monday-Friday 3-5p central US time You dont need anything special to listen, just tune in to the site at anytime to listen, chat and make requests
