Are you a Ch-Angel?

Do you wake each morning
eagerly anticipating what good deeds you'll partake in?
Do you share your smile?
Do you listen when others speak?
Do you bare your shoulders for other's tears?
Do you give freely of your time and talents?
Do you offer your heart to those in need?
Do you lend a hand before its requested?
Do you do these things
without even pondering or hoping for reciprocation?


Every person reading this
and every person NOT reading this
has within them the ability,
dare I say . . . the responsibility,
to do these things.


We are all Ch-Angels.
We are all capable of changing lives.
We are all able to make the world different . . .
better . . .
special.


Be a Ch-Angel today!

Good Morning!

Good Morning!


Two simple words, right?
Believe them.


You're reading this, which is a double positive:
You're on the right side of the grass and you can read.


You have the choice to make today whatever you want it to be.
Make it a Good Morning!


Something got you miffed, decide first if it really matters
and then take baby steps to tackle it; or walk away.
There is no shame is leaving behind you the things
that cause you pain and shame and hurt and sadness.


Good Morning!
Have a Great Day!

Each of Us

Each of us
has immeasurable talents.
Each of us
possesses beautiful gifts.
Each of us
is filled with love.
Each of us
envelopes kindness.
Each of us
oozes with understanding.


Your blessings are unique.
No one else offers what you can.
Share your amazing self.


Share you.

Smile

Peace begins with a smile.
Help begins with a hand.
Understanding begins with an ear.
Sympathy begins with a shoulder.
Love begins with a heart.


Smile!

Love

And now these three remain:
faith, hope and love.


But the greatest of these is
love!

Never Too Late

George Eliot was quoted:


"It's never too late
to be who you might have been."


Now wait . . .
Go re-read that.
Seriously ponder it.


Now, go be amazing!

Life

I see folks at work who impatiently push their mom around
in a wheelchair, barking orders and yelling at her to make up her mind.


What I wouldn't do to spend just another 15 minutes with my mom.


I hear about folks not speaking to siblings because of some silly dispute
or another that really doesn't have much weight.


What I wouldn't do to talk to my brother Skip just one more time.


I hear about folks who won't see babies or deal with babies
because of some issue that occurred eons ago.


What I wouldn't do to hold sweet baby Julia again.


People . . . life is short.
Tomorrow is promised to absolutely no body.


If you care, show it.
If you miss them, call.
If you love them, tell them.
Today is all you have!
