Choice

Love this.
Afterward, I will share
the Marinello simplified version ...

Happiness is a choice

It is a byproduct of

appreciation, gratitude

and contentment.

It is based on

how you view your life,

not how your life is.

Marinello-ized ...

You can be happy,

or you can be crappy.

Make good choices.

Sometimes

Sometimes,

the greatest gift

you can

give another person

is to simply

include them ...

A process I am continually learning

with many personalities where I work.

What do you see?

Saw a friend's post this morning,
which was very visual,

but I believe I can get the point across.

It was a gentleman requesting that

when the screen changed to a still shot

he asked that in just 3 seconds

you find three things that are blue.

The picture changed and

I noted three blue items.

When the screen changed back

to the gentleman, he asked,

"What was yellow?"

Far too often, we see only 

what we know or want to know

and we do not see everything

that's out there.

Makes ya go hmmmmmmm, right?

What do you see???

Oh My Goodness!

Saw this yesterday after work
and about fell off the couch.

Often times we are looking 

for earth-shattering or colossal ...

Sometimes,

miracles are

just good people

with kind hearts.

It is extraordinary

what can emerge

from decency.

Have a great day!

Words to Blume by

From one Miss Judy ...

Our fingerprints

do not fade

from the lives

we touch.

What marks

will you be leaving???

Secrets

Here are a few secrets I've learned
over the past seeming 100 years of life ...

You can't jump on every bandwagon that passes by.

Pretty soon you'll end up someplace you don't want to be.

If you don't like what you hear, do some research.

Ask questions. Go to the source. Find the truth.

Don't ever follow anyone or anything blindly ~

(except God and the Bible) ~

be your own best source

of information and intelligence.

Be willing to stand up and stand out.

You were never meant to be ordinary.

Be wary of instant anything.

There is nothing more powerful

than hard work and dedication.

Feel free to add some tidbits.

I'd love to hear what you've learned ...

New

Even at the end of the week ...

New day

New thoughts

New possibilities

New opportunities

New strengths

New ideas

New doors

New ways

New you

Your failures do not contain you

Your past does not define you

You can do this ...
