Everyone is excited about the NEW year ahead but in each NEW SECOND lies grand opportunity to leave your greatest SELF mark on all the lives you come across. Each NEW SECOND is opportunity for YOU to FORGIVE yourself, LOVE yourself, UNDERSTAND yourself, GROW yourself, PURSUE your BEST SELF!!! Don't forget to appreciate the NOW always! Each second we have is a second to feel celebrated and BLESSED!

Happy New Year 2012!

Don't get lost in the madness

The Holidays are here!

It is a time where I find many including myself,  with to-do lists, scattered brains and later bed times.

In all of that, I encourage you not to get lost in that madness. 

Take time to stop and recall the reason for the season! Open your heart to ways of sharing never explored.

Give back! Hold the door open for someone, do something anonymous!

I was watching Channel 12 news and this story caught my attention:

An anonymous person entered a Kmart Lay-a-way center and asked the employee to please pull up THREE random receipts of persons whom still had yet to pick up their lay-a-way.

This anonymous person, paid off the receipt balances and left no name! Just a scribbled 

"HAPPY HOLIDAYS!" on their paid receipts!

 The very  SENTIMENT of such a selfless act had a grand effect on my heart! 

It does not take much for this world to be a better place!

All you have to offer is your SELFLESSNESS!

Your own contribution in any way you can to brighten the "tiny space" you take up in this world!

I have no idea how much those receipts totaled but I can tell you that it does not matter and it may have been minimal but the receiver of such a paid receipt will surely be touched! Perhaps, even be brought closer to the belief that GOD does use others to heal, help and soften their own hearts!

This anonymous person did not get lost in the Holiday madness. They thought of others and humbly gave of themselves.

Do you have to go pay off someones Lay-a-way?  No, that is not the message I am trying to convey. 

I am trying to convey that you worry less, enjoy more! Focus on the humble things, make the HOLIDAYS the best of where you are with what you HAVE! Certainly strive to see the countless BLESSINGS of a new DAY, a new MINUTE, a new SECOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then share your BEST smile and open heart with others!

May you continue to enjoy your HOLIDAY season:)
