Some words to live by:
“Beautiful things happen in your
life when you distance yourself from all the negative things.” ~ Author Unknown
Not always an
easy thing to do when surrounded by election campaigns. But we
can try,
can’t we?
“Treat everyone with politeness,
even those who are rude to you, not because they are nice, but because you
are.” ~
Author Unknown
Gosh. This sounds just like
Kindergarten, eh? Makes sense. The best
things were from that phase of our life! Simple. Direct. Easily remembered.
Just not easily lived.
Tweetiebird was quoted to have said
the following:
“Dear Lord, So far today I am
doing alright. I have not gossiped, lost my temper, been greedy, grump, nasty,
selfish, or self-indulgent. I have not whined, complained, cursed, or eaten any
chocolate. I have charged nothing on my credit card.
But I will be getting out of bed
in a minute, and I think that I will really need your help then.”
That’s when the real work begins
anyway, right?
“Special request to all you kids
that will be returning to school; if you see someone who is struggling to make
friends or being bullied because he/she doesn’t have the most ‘in’ clothes,
maybe he/she is shy, too quiet or maybe they don’t have many friends, please
step up! Say hello. Smile at them in the
hallway. You never know what a person may be facing outside of school. Your
kindness could make a big difference in someone’s life.” ~Author Unknown
If only this were that easy. Do you
remember the days when you were bullied or feared you would be? Wouldn’t
someone stepping forward and treating you the way outlined above have made you
feel better? Yep. I thought so!
Please pass this on:
“A
drop of happiness can cause:
-smiles
-optimism
-self worth
-reduced depression
-improved health”

That’s all for this day. Enjoy the
Labor Day Weekend and especially the positive thoughts you draw from your
family and friends. This is a good time of year. Rejoice!
