Friday (yes, it IS finally here!)

It is Friday, perhaps not a typical Friday as there are many recovering from a late night of celebrating.  Happy Friday anyway!

I experienced a very awkward day yesterday.  I am still exploring it and getting through it, however sharing is part of healing. 

“Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.” Marianne Williamson

It is easier to talk about, keep current and recall the pain and wounds someone else caused.  When you find forgiveness, you will find peace.

Think about Thursday

Good Thursday morning world!  There are 1,440 minutes in a day.  How many of those minutes will we spend giving thanks for what we have?  “The only people with whom you should try to get even are those who have helped you.”  -John E.

What will you do Wednesday

Uber-competitive people with the need to win, actually end up enjoying things less.  If they lose they are disappointed and defeated, and if they win-well they expected it anyway.  Almost like the right or wrong syndrome.  It’s not always about being right or wrong.  Sometimes it’s about being-the journey!  “Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once.” Lillian Dickson

Sunday Reflection

“Under your shoulders. Dear young people of the entire world, weigh the responsibility to transform tomorrow’s world into a society where peace, harmony, and fraternity reign.” -Bishop Carlos Belo. 

It is my hope, thought and prayer that our youth of today continue to help make our world, our country, our state and our cities an inclusive place for all, without exception!

Saturday

Good Saturday morning to you!  How are you?  How was your week?  Stop and think about both those questions. 

F. Scott Fitzgerald said “Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat.”  You have heard that God won’t give us more than we can handle.  This too is true: “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”

Today take a moment to breathe.  Close your eyes.  Relax.  Smile.  Take comfort knowing you are beautiful.  You are loved.  You are worthy!

Friday Food

“Grant us serenity to accept the things we cannot change, courage to change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference.”

Many of us spend too much time anxious about things we cannot change: the economy, the weather, traffic, or people who annoy us.

As a result, we don’t have the energy to make the most of our opportunities. Recognizing the difference between what we can and cannot change can help us live more peaceful and productive lives.

You alone control what you give power to and time for!  Focus “you” on what matters most!

Thursday

I hope you can ponder these words, how can they fit in your life, your work, your spiritual journey?

Teamwork is the ability to direct individual accomplishments toward group goals. Coming together is a beginning.  Keeping together is progress.  Working together is success. The key elements in the art of working together are how to deal with change, conflict, and how to reach our potential.  The needs of the team are best met when we meet the needs of individual persons!

Wednesday

You are not here just to take up space.  Consider this: nothing would be the same if you did not exist.  Every place and person you had interacted with would be different.  We are all connected and affected by the decisions and existence of one another!

Tuesday

Thanks to the Le Moyne brothers, Mardi Gras has been celebrated for hundreds of years in the US.  Happy Mardi Gras for those whom observe it!  Hand in hand… “Don’t accept television’s picture of the world!”  Separate what you see and hear from what you know.  Base expectations and realizations on reality, not hype and not television!

Monday

TGIM…(Thank Goodness it is Monday!)   Ponder this today: when something goes wrong, don’t waste time thinking of how you failed.  Deal with the outcome head-on.  You can always try a different approach again.

Sunday

Good morning!  “When one door closes another opens.  But we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we fail to see the one that has opened for us.”  It is ok to feel disappointed when something doesn’t work out…just as it is to remember that YOU control the amount of time you dwell on it!

TGIM

Thank Goodness It Is Monday! (TGIM) I do look forward to Monday’s as much as some do Fridays! It is the beginning of another week! Much to accomplish!

Today I celebrate my 3^rd relationship anniversary. It has been a great learning experience. I am a happy person. I share this with you…

If you want to be happy, the best thing you can do is thank, forgive, and consciously love your partner-and everyone else; for being themselves.
