 Did you know that you are here on this earth... To reach specific people, To love specific people, To change lives? Begin today looking around for those people. Love them! Be kind to them. And bask in the wonderful feelings it leaves you with! “At this very moment, there are people only you can reach… And differences only you can make." - Mike Dooley Nobody else who can help, will be in their orbit... At the right time, today. Nobody else will notice them At the right time, today. Nobody else will know to smile At the right moment, today. Nobody else will know what to say, Today... ...be their angel. Today... ...smile and say good-day.

 You could think about where you’d like to be And begin working toward that. And you know what a great first step is? - To be grateful for another day to move yourself... ...toward what you want your life to be like. “You can't go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending.” ― C.S. Lewis Love to you today, As you begin anew, On a new day.
 This week’s word is MAKARIOS MAKARIOS Greek for “blessed” - to be fully satisfied and untouched by the world circumstances.

Family Friends Ability to walk, to see, to hear, to move To LOVE. Have a great MAKARIOS autumn week!
 One of the things we often learn the hard way is that it doesn’t pay to get discouraged. Discouragement is a cousin of overwhelm. Overwhelm leads to helplessness. Helplessness leads to hopelessness. Somewhere in the midst of all that is discouragement And that’s when we’re on the wrong road. Just saw a fellow say to get out of discouragement or worry, NAME it - say what you are feeling and why. BREATHE it - 4 seconds in and 8 seconds out. The longer out breath triggers your vagus nerve. Calms you. Do it a few times. Til you feel it. MOVE it. Move your body - take a walk, or sweep the walk, do some yoga, or dance or…… If your focus still comes back to discouragement, Do your 3 steps again. And, through it all think of what you are grateful for In your life. Love,
