PERCEPTION VS REALITY

My friend sent me this yesterday. It really cracked me up!

'What I perceive my brain to be.....'

'What my brain really is!'

ALL THE LITTLE THINGS

You've heard people say about someone else: "He/she does all the little things really well."

I truly believe that life is comprised of little things and not just one or two big events.

More often than not, people focus on the one big deal, the one big break, the one big experience.

Persisting in and doing well with all the little things in life, will lead to a great big wonderful life over time!

Keep doing the little things well in your world....today!

GLOBAL WARMING?

Ummmm........

BIGGER, FASTER, STRONGER

I don't know if you are following the World Baseball Classic or not, but a very interesting storyline caught my attention.

Have you ever been in a situation where on the surface, people would say that you couldn't do this or that? Maybe they thought you were too small, not talented enough, didn't have enough experience?

It's like David vs Goliath; USA Olympic Men's Hockey beating Russian for the gold medal, Nate Robinson dunking over Dwight Howard or the Netherlands beating and ousting the Dominican Republic from the World Baseball Classic.

A group of nobodies handles one the best in the world. Go figure.

As the old saying goes, "It's not the size of the dog, but the size of the fight in the dog." And oh, yeah, it doesn't hurt to believe that you can do that which everyone else says you can't!

Go for it!!

IT'S GORGEOUS, BUT....

What a spectacular day! It all started last night!

Now, that sounds absurd!!!

But it did!

We were coming home from K's bball game and as we drove up our hill, the moon was coming over the mountains. It was HUGEMONGOUS!!!! I mean it was massive.

The news even covered it and because of the clear and cold weather, the moon stood out extra special!

As beautiful as that was and as gorgeous today is, I was reminded of my human nature that is never satisfied! I was griping to myself how cold it was!!

Never enough. Never satisfied. Never content. The bible talks about how to get it and it's not in the form of a stimulus plan either!

What a great day and I'm not cold anymore!!

STICKING TOGETHER

I was talking with a neighbor who lives down the street from me. I was asking him how his job was going and he was asking how the people in the church were doing. He then asked if I knew of any of our neighbors who might be affected by the current economic situation. He then made this comment: 'We just gotta stick together!'

Profound.

Refreshing.

How true.

Sticking together will get you and me through. Sticking together provides so many wonderful qualities and they vary based upon the situation.

One of the largest pieces to this idea of sticking together is SELFLESSNESS. A bit tough to learn as an American. Looking out for other's needs. Making sure the parts of the whole are taken care of. It is a deeper more insightful existence.

Let's stick together! We can make a difference in each other's lives!!

F/X

Have you checked out some of the headlines from around the world lately? I was looking at some of them today and I wondered what effects they had on people.

Do people get freaked out by the enormous amount of turmoil globally?
Do people feel insulated here in America and feel that the issues in the Middle East, Russia, Iran are 'a world away'?
Could people really care less about it all?

Just curious.
