Today is Monday and we are all getting back to work (except those who get today off because of Columbus Day or Canadian Thanksgiving). Holidays on Mondays mean three-day weekends for some which is awesome.
I am positive today will provide opportunities to do great things for those . Let’s try to think of Monday in a different way today or something like that. My friends let’s have the best day forward.
Today I created an exclusive friends list of people on Facebook I feel share my values and beliefs. Sometimes wide spread posts can create a hostile environment even among friends who really feel its necessary to assert in a heavy handed way their own agenda. Less is better in some cases. Sometimes you don’t want to have to defend your opinion with others, you just want affirmation. Social media can be a very great platform of expression and sharing, sometimes it can be a place that tears your soul apart. To make it a better place for me I shrunk my circle and I hope to be happier for it. Now this is in no way to slight others who differ from me but I just wanna be myself less filtered. You get what I am saying.
I enjoy looking at a blogs older posts. It is as important as the current posts. A person has a story that has a beginning and a blog is no different. So if you see a bunch of older posts with some unexpected likes that is why. I don’t mind fellow bloggers looking at my older posts. Go for it take a look back.
World Smile Day is celebrated on the first Friday in the month of October every year. The idea of World Smile Day was coined and initiated by Harvey Ball, a commercial artist from Worcester, Massachusetts. Harvey Ball is known to have created the Smiley Face in 1963. From Wikipedia via Google.
In our world full of stress, strife and conflict don’t forget to smile today and other days too! You are never fully dressed without a smile!
Being relevant is more important than being trendy. I think that relevance is a long-term solution to being timely and timeless. Being relevant means that you are working hard to keep up with the world around you. It also requires an open mind and loving heart. At least that’s what I think. What do you think?
A word of advice for Saturday and beyond. Be weird my friends! The world needs it.
