🤣👏 Kieron Dyer was challenged to sneak as many Michael Jackson song titles as possible into his Southend press conference… And somehow, NOT A SINGLE journalist noticed what he was doing. 😭🤣

I heard someone say, satan got adam and eve to fix their eyes on one tree when god had already given them an entire garden, think about that. The enemy didn't have to convince them that they had nothing. He just had to make them forget everything that they already had. And he still, till this day, uses the same strategy. He gets us to focus on relationships we don't have, the job that we don't have, the opportunity we don't have, the healing we haven't seen yet. Meanwhile, we are blind to the countless prayers god has already answered. Gratitude isn't pretending you don't want more, it's refusing to let what you don't have make you forget the goodness of god that's already surrounding you.

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy. She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid. The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%. She handed out the checks herself. In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college. When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months. You've probably heard that part. Here's the part you haven't: The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top. Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave. She built her county an entire hospital. She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it. In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees. Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal. In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release. And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it. She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway. She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did. Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

Tennessee has long touted its reputation as a low-tax state, but a new analysis from the Beacon Center of Tennessee says the Volunteer State now leads the nation in property tax increases. The conservative think tank released its findings Aug. 14 after examining the dataset behind a recent Wall Street Journal report on property tax trends across the country. https://t.co/fHisJSnprq

Very, very excited about this. Ben Shive is one of my best and oldest friends, and he also happens to be a musical genius who's making his first official instrumental album. Let's kickstart this thing! https://t.co/A8mGs8BWVL

I’m watching Lord of the Rings and all I can think about is how the horses wouldn’t have known they were featuring in a film and how they must have gone home each day and thought, WTF just happened.
