Fickle Day

1.  Trying to remember Zig Zigler’s message, “don’t judge the day by the weather.”  Sleet, rain, wind, sunshine–you name it

2.  Happy to read Mary Ellen’s post – keep calm theme – let go, let God

3.   Thinking of my two sons on the west coast and missing them

4.  Compliments from young trainers at the gym – so kind young women

5.  Good health results received on the spot–no waiting

6.  Amazed at the speed of life; much is related to technology; sometimes good, other times, not so much

7.  Thankful for cooperation among co-workers; setting up to help when needed

8.  Gratitude and goodness surrounds us; all we need do is to tune in

9.  thankful for the gift of yet another day.  Blessings to you.

 

Keep calm

Keep calm and say a prayer

Keep calm and know that he is God

Keep calm and know the universe is unfolding as it should

Keep calm and know that life is in chapters

Keep calm and know that adversity is sometimes the avenue to better things

Keep calm and stay busy

Keep calm and look forward to a nice nap

Keep calm and plan on some fun tonight

Keep calm and be in control of what you can control. Surrender yourself and know that God will be taking care of all your problems today. Be still!

Windy Tuesday

1.  Meeting with a client from the past which proved to be fruitful and fun.

2.  Cold calling and meeting such nice, friendly people.

3.  Feeling grateful for positive results and softly saying thanks.

4.  Reading Carol’s “Celebrate possibilities” and marveling at her talent and creativity.

5.  Listening to TED talk today about the need for compassion in help alleviate poverty.  Plenty of aid but lack of law enforcement in many 3rd world countries imposes so many limits on people–young girls who fear walking to school as an example.  See Gary Haugen:

6.  The importance of sharing and recognizing that there is truly enough of everything for everyone

7.  Thankful for the gift of yet another day – thankful for each of you!!!

Late

1. Giving myself a bit of time alone, even though I had to stay up late for it
