Spread Love



Hello Readers,

In lieu of the senseless shootings in Orlando this past Sunday, I wanted to speak to you on the topic of love. I took some time to think about some words that remind me of what love really means to me and here is my list: Unselfishness, kind, caring, looking past flaws, imperfection, not boastful, happiness, joy, peaceful, and excitement. All these words/phrases have to do with removing yourself from the scope of a situation and thinking about others. This my readers is what life is all about, others. How can we as the HUMAN race move forward if we are not looking past others flaws? How can you put into practice these words? How can you show love? Sexual orientation and past life mistakes, do these things really matter if a person is trying to move forward? We must give people a chance and love them through the hate and the crime, yes even the accuser.  Here are some examples of what I do to spread love:

1. I try to speak to everyone I see.
2. I ask people how their day is going, especially in the drive thru.
3. I purposely compliment people each day.
4. I ask about their family and friends.
5. I am genuinely happy for their life achievements

What are your examples of how you spread love?

Celebration



Hello readers,

In honor of our 100Th blog post, I want to share with you a story about celebration. Google defines celebration as the action of marking one's pleasure at an important event or occasion by engaging in enjoyable, social activity. I would like to simplify this definition by stating “to make one’s pleasure”. I have come to realize that celebrating does not have to be a huge and meaningful event. We just took our son and two of his friends with another couple on a cruise for his 18th birthday. As I sat on the Lido Deck gazing at people from all over the country and of many different backgrounds dancing and having a “ball”, I noticed they all had one thing in common, they were all engaging in an enjoyable or social activity. No one seemed to have a care in the world, they were dancing, swimming, eating, playing table tennis and corn hole, and simply in celebration mode of being of vacation. Witnessing so much celebration made me stop and realize life is GRAND. I encourage you to find something that brings you pleasure. How many times have you celebrated something this year just because? Are you engaging in enjoyable and social activities? Get out and celebrate. You do not need a reason; the fact that you are reading this blog post is reason enough. Live life.

Your thoughts welcome…
