Have you ever had someone say something that stuck with you for years?  Those few words that come back time after time and you never forget them? I sat in church one Sunday and an elderly pastor shared his sermon with the congregation.  His words, I'll always remember.  It made an impact on my way of thinking, my life. This is what he said. "Rude doesn't make you right."  "Rude never makes you right."  "If you are right and you are rude, you are wrong."  "Rude is wrong." That was one of my WOW moments. When someone is rude I think about that day an elderly pastor shared his life lesson with me and his congregation. How many times has someone been rude to you?  Was it right?  *

  Jun 24 |00:00 A conversation with Mara Hawks, First Realty, Auburn, Alabama   AUBURN ALABAMA, a rising star... Becoming best known for its University and top-ranking SEC Football, Auburn, Alabama is rising rapidly in the charts with increasing, national recognition for its year-round benefits for families and retirees. In 2009, U.S.News & World Report reviewed Auburn with other growing towns across America, and ranked Auburn as the 2nd best place to live. This town scores big for its southern charm and collegiate vigor, but that is only icing on the cake of community development and layers of a historically sound economic growth.   Auburn’s proximity to world class golf courses, a state park, a flourishing small business network that facilitates vital, community outreach, the preserv...
