Life is a challenge only years to live, so much learning in store will you take too much or leave more of the good you do outside heavens door?  It’s not about money or fame because it isn’t some foolish little game, it is about creating beautiful moments and accepting what GOD has in store for you once you answer the door.

We are teammates building a solid foundation together that is for so many more generations then this one or that, we are creating an opportunity to shine the light on each other that will never dim or be put out.  But in order for the truth to be told you have to break the cycles, knock down the walls and accept your brothers and sisters as equals and as friends.  It is not our similarities that make us the same but the differences and struggles that have led the way to where we are today.

To change the world we live in we need to accept and change our paths and directions by realizing that we are fallible mortals who make mistakes everyday, but it is truly learning from those mistakes and helping others to learn from theirs as well with a gentle heart and an open hand that will make us great once again.  Let go of the control you think you need and you will soon realize that everything slows down and you are able to enjoy everything so much more…

Together Everyone Achieves More “TEAM”!  With GOD’s love to hold us tightly I say Happy New Year and be great today …

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, “Always do what you are afraid to do.”

Happiness grows at our own firesides, and is not to be picked in strangers’ gardens.

It's Christmas time all around the world...

 

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself…
~Norman Wesley Brooks, “Let Every Day Be Christmas,” 1976

I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.  ~Charles Dickens

IT’S NEARLY CHRISTMAS
I write this in September
And I can already see my breath
Because the temperature is falling
To fifty degrees or less;
There are frosted mornings
And skies are turning gray;
Next thing, there’ll be snowdrifts
Fit for a sleigh.

In stores, they’re gearing for Halloween
With pumpkins on display;
After October 31, we’ll count the days
To shop til Kris Kringle Day;
Just when I thought the craze was over
And the presents were put away,
Alas! I hear Santa “ho-hoing”,
It’s nearly Christmas Day.

Christmas is a magical time,
Is there any doubt?
But I’m going to need a psychotherapist
To get my anxeties out!
The sugarplums might be dancing,
But they’re messing up my mind;
The silver bells aren’t doing much
To help me unwind.

September comes and October goes,
November is just a glance;
Once again, there’ll be invitations
To another holiday dance;
I’ll decorate the Christmas tree
With icicles, stars, and lights,
But I’ll need a ton of eggnog
To get me through this night!

” Make every day Thanksgiving Day! Be thankful for your caring spirit, loving heart, strength of mind and your gifts of will power and determination! Be thankful for another day to share your most valuable gift… and that is showing others you love them more than yourself! Do it every day and DO IT BIG!!!”
