Appreciate The Day

We are so busy with life that we often forget to appreciate the day. Enjoy the day for what it is. Learn from the good and bad of the day. Life is such a gift. You have an importance for being here and we need your personal gifts to each other. Words alone can help someone similar to what you are going through. The many things you may have been through can help others.

Appreciate the day you are gifted with. Embrace it with your family of life and connect in a way that reaffirms to you that you are a part of something big. If we see the beauty of everything the world becomes so beautiful. Show your beauty today and shine through the storms...

Al Roker Lending Hands For All Of Us

Be Kind Today

This delightful young lady reminds us how easy it is to be kind.

Pay it forward and it will come full circle. That is the circle of life...

Accept The Credit

Accept the credit for your perseverance. Things may not be perfect. They may not be exactly where you would like them to be. Things can ALWAYS be worse. You may not think so at the time but, this is a very true fact. The consolation to struggles is the growth that comes with it. We can learn something from everything.

I have learned that you have to follow your passion in life. This is a gift that is given to you. It is unique with its design and DNA compiled just for you. So when someone shows appreciation for what you present in life, stand proud and say "Thank You." You earned it...

Keep working on a good life and you will see it unfold. Opening your gift is one of the most beautiful things you can share. Unless it's your birthday-suit, then you better keep that one wrapped. :)


Accept your artistic contribution to our canvas of life. We are proud to have you here! Now go out there and just smile. Even if it is just once. Smile at someone and show them that they are a worlds painter as well...~

Water Your Mail Carrier Today

Our Mail Carrier friends could use watering sometimes. During the warmer months of the year it is hard to stay hydrated properly. The neighborhood mail-carrier pushes through the diverse weather it blankets them with each day. They are careful, articulate, friendly, caring and hard working individuals. They work hard. Like many others they do not get the respect they deserve.

Everyone needs to be appreciated. We should appreciate each other. There are many things people do that go un-noticed. That is part of life and not everyone seeks accolade. However, just by giving your mail carrier a bottle of water, a dry old hand towel, a couple of paper towels, could mean more than you could imagine. 

The Mail Carrier could have forgot their thermos in a rush that morning. They could have dropped their "Sweat Towel." They may wear glasses and a paper towel would be just the thing they need. Most will more than likely say "No Thank You." When they go home they will talk about this to everyone. They will feel so appreciated for what they do that they will be inspired. Without even a thought, they will help someone else down the road. You will have taken a step  in looking at life with appreciation in all things. 

You my friend made a difference. One random act of kindness will strengthen the pulse of love for humanity. It will become heard around the world. You may just help someone from fainting that day with the water. 

Good lookin out...~ Your step has a little more of a swagger to it.~

Get Your Flippers

Grab your flippers if the water starts to rise. Everyone has a moment in life that makes us feel like we are drowning.  The storms that come through can be torrential in strength. The key to remember is that the storm will pass. 


Hang on with all you have inside of you. Use your flippers to keep moving. Make sure that you know with your heart that wherever you are, others are there with you. We all have the same stuff going on. We will ride out the storm with you and be your anchor of support.


Make sure you smile everyday, laugh as something silly and be kind. You are on your way my friend....


Don't forget to flip those feet  \ /  (not a very good set of flippers but, hey...it's improvising)... 

Look At The Difference You Are Making

You should be proud of the difference you are making. The response that you are giving to help humanity is amazing!

 I am proud of you and I thank you for helping people.

Please continue to help fight world hunger for free.

This is a wonderful personal and educational growth tool for children. It is a win-win for our family of life and it's FREE! :)

Planet Of The School Bus

When the doors on the school bus close it becomes a different world. There suddenly seems to be a new planet in our solar system. The population consists of all children and one adult. It is the School Bus. The children seem to unleash every part of energy they had to control at school. The bell rings, the doors open, the kids try not to run but, always jump on the bus quickly with relief. They are ready to talk to their friends and goof around. Sometimes it is the best part of their day! The Bus Driver is just as excited! Not really but, a good Bus Driver has insight on this and is ready for them to come a running... 


Bus Drivers do a wonderful job with our children. We often forget about thanking them. A few years ago I realized I had been forgetting our Bus Driver. At the end of the year I made sure to thank her and gave her a gift. It was a small token of my appreciation. I continue to do this for her. Tammy is wonderful with the kids and keeps them safe.

A Bus Driver that cares for children and keeps them safe is something we take for granted. Parents often think the school owes you a driver like that. This is true to a point. I believe it comes down to how well people do their job. How much passion they have will carry through into what they are doing.

I appreciate Tammy and her passion. The love of children and the insight to their behavior allows Tammy to be remarkable. As a parent I can not thank her enough for being good at what she does. "Thank you Tammy."

Thank you to all of the Bus Drivers in the world. What you do for "Our World's Family" is important. "Have a summer of inspiration and get some rest."~

Teachers Need You

Summer is about to take off with a bang! I hope that everyone takes just a little bit of their time to thank the teachers in the world. A Teacher starts their career with the intent to save the world one child at a time. It"s beautiful. The passion of learning and educating seeps from their bodies of inspiration. Each one looks forward to a better year than the next. What will come next? Teachers get a bad wrap a lot of the times. I know that there are some bad teachers out there. There are some teachers that have lost their focus in making the world grow. How can you blame them?

We all know that kids today behave much different than in the past. When I was in school a student would never interrupt the teacher and be disrespectful with their language. People get tired of being beaten up emotionally and letting the negativity pound at them day after day. They often decide to just tune it out. That is the easiest. Again, they are tired...


The fight for our children each day needs everyone. If a teacher is not achieving their best potential of creating a classroom of inspiration, help them out. Remind them of how much you appreciate them being their for your child. They chose this career by choice. They chose it because they care about Our World's Family.

• Just give a Teacher something to think about this summer. Inspire them with your gratitude of caring for kids. 
• Remind them of how much influence they have and appreciate how much they do.
• Inspire them to keep moving forward with our children each year and push through the storms. 
• Let them know that even one child in their career mattered. It could be the next one that saves the world.

One comment, One Smile, One hug, One card, One note, One call, One email, (get my point :) can change the world through each other. Your inspiration to an educator can change the life of a child you may never know because, of the Teacher you encouraged to never forget the flow of Love and Life... 

Start your Summer with a bang of INSPIRATION~ I adore you all and you make me dance everyday~ Let's make the world sing together and create a harmony that nobody has every heard before... Have a wonderful weekend and take in life...

I Have An Idea For You

I encourage you to take time and think about something. Anything you want to but, it has to be an idea. The stipulation is creativity. I want you to think about one of those ideas that has been on your mind for a long time. The one that comes and goes while leaving you thoughts of (I think I could...) The truth is that you CAN!


Let the ideas come and go from your mind today. However, take time to make notes of the things that pop in your head. Artists often have to get up in the middle of the night so they can release that creativity. I always have a tablet laying around for when the ideas start to pour out. They may trickle, they may be overflowing, they can even be rare. I have learned over the years that they do come. No matter what you are doing and who you are they will arrive. You have to be open enough to receive them.

Our world is so fast that we do not take time for ourselves. This is a personal growth tool for you to be able to kick start any stagnate idea that has been left on hold. Anything is possible if you believe in yourself. We are all here for you and can not wait to see what you are doing to inspire your world. Your ideas can be small or large. They just have to be an idea of yours. Change in decorating your home, landscaping, activities, inventions, advocacy, helping your community, (personal favorite :) Anything your let your soul think about your mind will follow...if you listen...~

Have fun with it and don't stress yourself out. Making growing inside a wonderful journey with your artwork. You have no idea what kind of art you can truly give the world unless you start painting your ideas of life.
