Amos and Cookie….. Gospel Singers......

Attitude is everything……

In early February at the RV Resort in Punta Gorda Florida we were entertained by Amos and his wife Cookie. Amos and Cookie are Gospel singers who travel around South Florida singing and entertaining wherever they can spread the word.

Amos told us the following story……

Mary is known by all to be cheerful and upbeat even in the face of adversity. Now she is being treated for breast cancer. Along with chemotherapy come the usual side effects including loss of hair.

One morning Mary woke up and discovered that she had only three hairs left on her head. She said a silent prayer thanking God for another day, and said to herself: “I think today I will braid my hair.”

A couple of days later Mary woke up to discover that she had only two hairs left on her head. She said a silent prayer thanking God for another day, and said to herself: “I think today I will wear pig tails.”

A few days after that Mary awoke to find only one hair left on her head. She said a silent prayer thanking God for another day, and said to herself: “I think today I will wear a pony tail.”

Again Mary woke to find that she had no hair left on her head. She said a silent prayer thanking God for another day and said to herself with a smile:

“Gee…… I don’t have to fix my hair today.”
