👊 Today’s Power Thought ~ It’s All in the Way We Choose to See
Today, look for the best in yourself and those close to you, your work, and your environment. You’ll have a great day.
💡 Something to Think About
I grew up south of Boston. I was taught to love the Red Sox and hate the Yankees. Many of the things we dislike or believe are inherently wrong have been passed down to us. Is it time to question some of these beliefs and adopt new, more meaningful and relevant beliefs?
BTW – I still root for the Red Sox, but no longer hate the Yankees (Sorry, Dad. LOL).
🌾 Today’s Poem ~ Joy
Joy
Carl Sandburg
Let a joy keep you.
Reach out your hands
And take it when it runs by,
As the Apache dancer
Clutches his woman.
I have seen them
Live long and laugh loud,
Sent on singing, singing,
Smashed to the heart
Under the ribs
With a terrible love.
Joy always,
Joy everywhere–
Let joy kill you!
Keep away from the little deaths.

Today’s Smile 😃

Joe: “I can waste time, ignore what I’m supposed to do, and daydream.”
💡 Something to Think About
I have a friend who’s first response to any problem is anger and attack. He carves a trail of conflict on his path to resolving his problem. There are better ways to resolve problems. What is your primary response to a problem? Is it one of anger and attack? Is it one to seek more information? Is it one to seek a peaceful resolution to the problem? Is it one to seek a workaround?
🤗 A Better Life ~ When Was the Last Time?
When was the last time you enjoy a long warm shower?
When was the last time you enjoyed reading a good book?
When was the last time you and someone special did something spontaneously?
Is it about time to enjoy life a bit more?
Have a great day and share your radiant smile.
