"Here's Something New To Feel Good About Today!"
"Horses can't talk, but they can speak if you listen." Anonymous
Try something today. When you engage in conversation with someone, really listen.
Unlike horses most people talk too much. It's the listening we need to get better at. Being attentive, demonstrating concern, and simply holding that quiet space for their words is a gift to them. Words matter, but between the words there is so much more; body language, eye contact, voice intonation and most of all their need for connection to you the listener.

"Simple pleasures are best." Alan Bradley
I am one of those people who always stop to pet a kitten or a puppy. I find them absolutely irresistible!
Today it was a four month old golden retriever with huge brown eyes that looked at me adoringly. As I stroked his satin soft floppy ears there was an instant connection with the animal as well as with his owners. In just a few minutes, we all experienced joy, it was a simple pleasure that made us all smile.

There's no need to wait for a special occasion or event, give without expectation, simply because it might bring someone joy or benefit. Your act of kindness may surprise them, but what comes back to you, may surprise you even more.

Leap of FaithI love this quote because it reminds me to have a sense of humor about myself.
"Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic." Jack Handey
I wish I were braver and less risk adverse. I wish I could always forge ahead with full confidence and never feel the fear. But I am human. I have to summon my courage in order to take giant leaps of faith. My instincts to say no, to hold back, to procrastinate will only keep me where I am today. Taking positive action despite my fears, will always move me forward. The thing to do is to face my fear and do it anyway!
