Hi, loyal readers! It’s been so long since I have written to you and there is so much to tell you! Since coming back from my six week amazing journey to Africa, I have reflected on last year and what will be for this year. I want you to know that you are one-of-a-kind living masterpiece. My heart’s desire is for you to be able to succeed in ALL you put your mind to.
Because YOU are important, remember that when you give of yourself by doing these things for others, you will be change. As you practice these random acts of kindness, your heart, soul, and spirit will be uplifted in an amazing way. What is it that will do this for you, you ask? I will tell you now.
Smile spontaneously! Let others see your authenticity through your smile. Your eyes will light up and your smile will demonstrate how you feel inside. Try it often! Especially with random strangers!
Hug wholeheartedly! Give of your warmth and wonderful emotions of happiness to others. A touch of genuine healing will be given to another person when it comes from the heart.
Give liberally! Not only financially, but your time, energy, and efforts are commodities that impact others in a deep level. You will receive it back in great measure!
Laugh unreservedly! Laughter is the best medicine that calms the soul and feeds the heart with gladness and hope. Let it loose for all to enjoy and participate with you!
Love unconditionally. Life is too short. Don’t let grudges, resentment, or loss be the stumbling block for you to love. Love beyond the pain. Mother Teresa said, “I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.”
You will be reflecting the love of God in you and through you to a world who is hurting and needing tangible expression of hope and care. Together we will make a huge difference!
“Jesus answered, The first and most important one is: Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is One Lord; and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind and with all your strength. This is the second: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:29-30
Peace, Love, and Joy!
