I want to tell you a story about Colonel Sanders. The meaning of the story is, it is never too late to be who you are supposed to be. I did not write this and took it from a Facebook post I saw yesterday and thought I would share it with you. The following is his story:
At age 5 his father died
At age 16 he quit school
At age 17 he had already lost 4 jobs
At age 18 he got married
Between ages 18 and 22 he was railroad conductor
At age 19 he became a father
At age 20 his wife left him and took their baby daughter
He joined the Army and was washed out
He applied for Law School and was rejected
He became and insurance salesman and failed again
He then became a cook and dishwasher in small café
At age 65 he retired
On the 1st day of retirement he received a check from the Government for $105
He felt the Government was saying he wasn’t capable to provide form himself
He decide to commit suicide because he was such a failure
He sat under a tree writing a will but ended up writing what he could have accomplished with his life
He realized there was much more that he hadn’t done
There was one thing he could do better than anyone he knew
And that was how to cook
He borrowed $87 and bought and fried up some chicken using his own recipe
He went door to door to sell to his neighbors in Kentucky
Remember at age 65 was ready to commit suicide
At age 88 he had built an empire and became a billionaire
KFC is now the second largest restaurant chain with 20,000 locations in 123 countries
The message is, it is never too late. KT
Bless God, ima fry me something!
