The love of what you do, combined with your belief in what you do, will not determine your success. It will determine how hard you will work and how dedicated you will be to achieving it. Success just shows up from there.

Awww Man It’s Monday!
Yep, Monday’s back and that makes many of us sad a little. My birthday weekend was great and I appreciate all the warm regards and well wishes. Today begins a new week and I am ready for Friday already. However we got business to take care of. It’s less than a week til our vacation which I am looking forward to. A week off will be good so this time next week I will be somewhere else that I will tell you more about later.
So for now, we commence Monday. Let’s see how things go. Have a great day everyone, if you dare.
Open Your Eyes, Open Your Heart
It doesn’t matter if you are ridiculously good looking (to borrow a phrase from Zoolander) or plain jane you are a person worthy of being seen for who you are. We live in a very shallow world where your appearance and looks are what matters most. The cult of celebrity has impacted how we see the world and ourselves. If we took time to see the best in people no matter what is on the outside the world would be a much better place.
People want to be loved and to love so the appearance issue shouldn’t be an issue but for some it really is. Life is too short to overlook based on looks. Be beautiful on the inside and out. Love one another as you want to be loved. Open your eyes and see people. Open your heart and good things will come forth.
Be pretty awesome, no matter what!
Rambling About Being Too Nice
I am too nice for my own good. Sometimes I am nice to a fault and let people walk over me. I guess its because I wanna get along with everyone. We need more nice people in the world but perhaps with a bit of moxie and vinegar when needed.
Remember To Be Less Serious, Be Happy!
We as a society and community can get so mired down in the serious things of our lives we forget to enjoy the fun stuff. There is nothing wrong with listening to a pop song, enjoying a guilty pleasure or eating something you really shouldn’t. Right now we live in a world that is full of sadness and hate that we need those moments of silliness, levity, grace to remind us of our humanity. I read a lot of posts and some of those I have written about the world being a dark place to be but we need to remember how to bring some light into the darkness.
Perhaps we should not try to grow up so fast that we forget the fun that can be had today and every day. My friends the world isn’t entirely bad, people aren’t always out to get you and perhaps pursue excellence in being a living person who smiles and laughs in equal measure to crying and frowning. Enjoy the fun of being imperfect, broken, human. Be alive today, you only get one shot at this life.
Love Your Enemies
Jesus didn’t have alot to say about “the right to bear arms”. But he did have alot to say about loving your enemy & turning the other cheek.
