Passion

Today, I just want to ask one question, What are you passionate about? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to do the one thing you've always daydreamed about? That perfect job, to afford that one trip you've always dreamed of since high school, to fit into that little black dress, to be the runner you've always wanted to be, to rock the itsy bitsy baby in the NICU, or to do the grocery shopping for your senior or sick neighbors? you get the idea.

Unsure where to begin? How about starting out as a volunteer? I remember needing job experience and having a strong desire to become an attorney but I didn't know where to begin, one day I decided to go the the court house to find out. I stopped at the information desk and I asked, I would like to do some volunteer work here at the courthouse do you need a volunteer? Well, with more words because I tend to be long winded but you get the idea. My first job after graduating from college was at the court house where I volunteered. Get it?

Every time you turn on the news there seem to be one more gray depressing story that seem to drag all the joy from your heart. To that I say, turn off the TV for a minute or 60, or 120 or for good, get your old, better yet, commit to becoming a little happier, get some newness in your spirit and make a decision to start living and making a difference. Let today be the day you find out what that burn in the inner walls of your chest is all about. OK, after you find out that, that burn really is heart burn, dig a little deeper to discover the weight that consumes your every thought and keeps you up at night, is really an unfulfilled need that can be met by helping others.

I believe that we all are our brother's and sister's keeper? we each have a responsibility to share the load, as Samwise Gamgee did for Frodo, in the movie, Lord of the Rings.

To those who are new to my blog, you will find I never miss an opportunity to reference one of my favorite movies, The Lord of the Rings. There you have it. Go forth and be of service to yourselves and your neighbors.

Please post any decisions you've made in your commitment to serve.

It's that time of year again, when parents dig deep to help their children put the final pieces and accessories together to complete the first week back to school outfits. I can't help but ponder the fuss my kids make over preparing for school. They fuss about what they'll wear-uniforms, their shoes-the only colors allowed are black, brown, blue and sneakers for P.E., not much room for fashionista cares or guy's wear, but they fuss as if they have choices.
Once all the preparations have been made and the big day arrives, one can't help but smile at the sharpness in their appearance, or at the little sparkle in their smile, and the weird look of excited confusion across their little faces.
For me that means only one thing, its time to grab my camera. For those of you who would like to capture that fresh first back to school look, here's a special offer for you.
