In's........

My Thought for this Day.........Above all else, remember........in this season of time, you don't have to out-go, out-decorate, out-spend, out-hustle, or out-bustle. You merely have to out-know, believe, rest in the blessed assurance that these days aren't about the out's, they are about the in's. The in's of the certainty that no one made that last dash to Wal-Mart in Bethlehem. No one blew the fuse on one too many strings of lights in that manger. No one forgot the cranberry sauce, nor the pecan pie. No one worried about the out's, their focus was on the in's. The in's of Belief and the Miracle of Life. Forget the out's, make sure the in's light your path this wonderful holiday season.....it is eternal.

Recognition.......

My Wish for you today is that you could see yourself as others see you. The depth, the shallowness, the selfless, the selfish, the humble, the egotistical , the humorous, the godly, the godless, the righteous, the ignorant, the wise........you will never know someone else, nor finish your mission on this earth, until you know yourself.

Hand.......

My Thought for this Day........Life is somewhat like a deck of cards. Each day we are dealt a brand new hand. Some days we have a Royal Flush and some days we search for two of a kind. My belief is that no matter your hand, you have the responsibility to fight for what is right, what is good and what is just. Your cards not only affect you, but also those who are part of your tintype of life. As mothers especially, we must step up and play with strength and finesse. Never underestimate your actions today and their far reaching consequences. Whatever is your hand at this moment, know that with your conduct, you lay the foundation for tomorrow.

Success.......

My Thought for this Day......In order to say yes, you must get around your no's!

Present.......

My Thought for this Day........We all are in a Season of Life. Each is beautiful in its own individuality. Each deserves its own respect. Each is a gift from God. Don't regret a past season, nor spend your days in expectation of future ones. Be present in your own...at this moment.

Daily.......

My Thought for this Day.........'Tis the Season to be Thankful. I don't have to tell you that one of the most wonderful gifts of our lives is the ability to be Grateful.......everyday. Never forget your blessings on a mundane Wednesday. Never disregard the art of being aware on a routine Tuesday. Always carry this in your heart.......Love and Life.....at their very core begin with Gratefulness.

Cracks........

My Thought for this Day........You may step over the cracks of life, but don't ignore them. Left unattended, they will become earthquakes that shatter the serenity of a blind existence.
