The Difference

You and your attitude
are the difference

between an ordeal

and an adventure;

between a lesson

and a blessing;

between happy

and crappy;

between joyful acceptance

and tearful remorse;

between walking in faith

and stumbling in sight;

between positives

and negatives.

The difference

begins with you

and radiates outward.

Make a difference ...

for you

and others.

Remember This

The darkest nights
produce

the brightest stars.

When you see someone

without a smile,

give them

one of yours.

When you find a soul

that's in a rage,

sit and share

some of your peace.

When you see the opportunity

do the right thing.

In the dark,

be the bright.

Tired?

Tired?

Do you often feel tired?

It's not because

you've done too much,

but because

you've done too little

of what sparks a light

in you.

Reach Out

I did not write this.
I wish I had.
My brain is too tired to think right now and this seemed
like something some folks might need to hear.

Reach Out

to someone you know,

tell them how

they make your life better

and how

they are important to you.

It only takes a moment

to give new hope

to someone

that is trying to find light

in the darkness.

Yasssss!

By E. Russell:


Be Your Own Muse

Joy

When you choose joy,
you feel good
and

when you feel good,
you do good
and
when you do good
it reminds others

of what joy

feels like

and

it just might

inspire them

to do the same.

Self

There is much to be said
for the care of one's self.
You cannot pour
from an empty cup.

You will not find someone

who makes you happy

until you make you happy.

You speak to yourself

the most;

speak kindly.

You are braver

than you believe,

stronger

than you seem,

and smarter

than you think.

You have purpose

and worth.

Fall down seven times,

stand up eight.

You are beautiful.

Take care of you.

I love you.
