“Kindness is loaning someone your strength instead of reminding them of their weakness.”
There are so many areas in our lives where we have the opportunity to show kindness to others by using our strengths to help them overcome a situation.
Do you know someone who could use your strength today instead of being reminded of their weaknesses?

“Without rain, nothing blooms. Learn to embrace the storms in your life.” ~unknown
While not all storms are created equal they do serve a necessary purpose in our lives. They break us down, they nurture us and we grow from the process. Are you embracing your storms?

“The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.” ~Mother Teresa
I know I would I have enjoyed meeting Mother Teresa. She did such important work in her life and left behind so many lessons about life, about helping others and the importance of having a happy attitude despite the work you are doing. How do you find ways to be happy to do your work even when the work is hard?

“The earth laughs in the flowers.” Ralph Waldo Emerson I did a double take when I first read this quote. But when I thought about our neighbor’s overgrown Forsythia bushes bursting up high above the fence line it made perfect sense. I can now imagine the earth bursting with laughter through the flowers as it awakens from the deep freeze of winter. How about you? Are you bursting with laughter as the flowers begin to come to life? I know I am!
“The ocean stirs the heart, inspires the imagination and brings eternal joy to the soul.” ~Wyland
Can’t you just feel all this quote has to say? Is your heart stirred, your imagination inspired and your soul filled with joy when you’re near the ocean? I know mine is!
“Your dream doesn’t have an expiration date. Take a deep breath and try again.” ~unknown
How many times have you felt bound by circumstances out of your control where it seemed as though that dream would never come true? How many times have you said “it’s too late,” “I’m too old?”
I say don’t give up on that dream (or goal) you have plenty of examples where individuals pursued their dreams long after others thought it was too late.
To name a few:, -Harley David Sanders 65 years old when he started Kentucky Fried Chicken;
-Julia Child wrote her first cookbook at 50 -launching her career as a celebrity chef;
-Anna Mary Robertson Moses, better known as Grandma Moses, began her prolific painting career at 78. In 2006, one of her paintings sold for $1.2 million. Previously, she was a housekeeper and farm laborer.
The list goes on and on including athletes as well.
What dream or passion have you shelved away because you told yourself it was too late? This week I encourage you to spend a few minutes revisiting those dreams and take action. You never know what you may accomplish.
