Grace Tuesday March 10

Good Morning Campers!! What are you thankful for today?? I'm thankful for #Grace!! I'm thankful for the #Compassion and #Love that others have shown to me.  And the Compassion that comes naturally to me when I see my Loved Ones hurting.  When we live with a Compassionate Heart,  our Kindness can be interpreted as being naive.  And that's not it.  The truth is we have Compassion towards the  World!! We only act when we feel led to do something.  We aren't naive, we are cautious to who, what, where, why and how we give our Compassion. There is a process where our hearts and heads have an inner conversation and check in with each other to make sure we are following to where we are led.  We choose how and who we serve. We can serve the environment by recycling. We can serve the homeless by giving them food, clothing and blankets.  We can serve the abused by being a non-judgmental ear to hear their story.  We can serve a grieving family by just being there;  not just in the moment, more importantly,  in the future.  We can All offer Grace to someone.  If we chose to have Compassion for each other,  we could change Our World. May your day be filled with Grace for you and may you show Grace to others. Happy Tuesday!! #positive  #inspiration #empowerothers #empoweryourself

No Words Friday March 6

There are No Words for
When a young life ends too soon
There are No Words
To comfort grieving parent's broken hearts
There are  No Words
That can bring back a sibling's Best Buddy
There are No Words
That will provide understanding to friends who lost their teammate.
There are No Words to describe the heart break one feels for their loved one when they lose a child.
There are No Words to make sense of all questions
There Is Love
And There Is Support as We wrap Our arms around this Family.
And We are Here as we feel we have Lost One of our Own.
God Bless You.
God is With You
We Love You

Freedom Wednesday March 4

Good Morning Campers!! What are you thankful for today?  I'm thankful for my Freedom!! Now when I say that I'm NOT talking about how the United States is a Free country....I'm talking about how I am Free from my past and I live Freely in my mind.  What does that mean??  It means I am evolved enough to admit when I'm wrong, which is often.  When we can't admit that we have a problem, whatever that problem is,  We become Prisoners of Our Own Mind!! We are refusing to see the truth about Ourselves. We are refusing to do the work,  the counseling,  the letting go of addictions in order to be Free.  We are not perfect beings.  And yet, there those people who hold on to that belief about themselves so strongly that they push people away!! Then they are left to think that everyone else has the problem... Wrong buddy!  If we are unable to admit the truth about ourselves, we will be confined to our Pride.  And when we let our Pride rule over us. We create All kinds of problems. We hold our Healing Hostage.  If this is you, get humble,  admit your struggles - all of them to another person.  When we bottle it up,  it comes out in other ways like anger,  violence, abuse, addictions. Let go of your Pride and be OK with not being perfect. Let go of your control and No longer be a prisoner of your own mind. Forgive who needs to be forgiven and forgive yourself. Let Go of your Pride and heal and you'll let those walls down so you're no longer a prisoner.  May you be Humble enough to admit your wrongs and be OK with not being perfect.  By doing this, you are being an example for the next person to do the same!! Then you can have Freedom for your future!!  Happy Wednesday!!  

Aspire Tuesday March 3

Good Morning Campers!!  What are you thankful for today??  I'm thankful for when we Aspire for a Goal, in return, we are Inspiring another person!! How cool is that!!?? When we Focus on our Dreams and Goals, then share our progress with other people, it Inspires them to Focus on their own Dreams and Goals!! We become Cheerleaders for one another!!  Maybe that's why we are all put here... To Lift each other up, Inspire, Motivate, Help, Coach, Mentor and Empower one another!! If we focus on Who we can Motivate each day as we wake,  maybe, just maybe, we will find a different Purpose for our Lives. Instead of being Negative and Hard on ourselves and beating ourselves up; we look forward to Being someone else's Cheerleader! And then someone will be there to Coach us when we need it! May your day be filled with opportunities to be an Inspiration for someone else and may you Aspire for Greatness!!  Happy Tuesday!! 

Brain Monday March 2

Good Morning Campers!!  What are you thankful for today?? I'm thankful for my Brain!! I'm thankful that its like a file cabinet or computer that keeps so many wonderful memories of our lives and we can just pull one up at any given time.  Our brains hold the Bank of Motivation and Inspiration as well!! If we go through our days just in the routine, we don't learn anything new, we have not worked out our brain. When we work out our body, it is an ongoing process, right?? So why wouldn't we think about that for our brain as well?! We don't just get to create a muscle in our biceps and then it will be there for the rest of our lives.... Actually, if we don't continue to work on the bicep, it will eventually turn to mush. So does our Brain!!  If we own a business, do we get to show up on Monday and everything will be great the rest of the month? We have to continue to be available to what our business needs!  What are you doing to work on your brain?? Whether you play Words with Friends, Soduko or reading a new book, it all exercises your brain. Maybe that's why my grandmother took up oil painting later in her life!! She learned a different skill and she was still sharp as tack until her last few years. Is there a new skill that you have always wanted to learn, a new language?? Maybe now is the time, Do It Now before your Brain turns to mush!! We have to practice the positive skills on a daily basis. Today, I decided that I'm going to be happy and thankful for all that I have and for all that I'm about to receive. Do you think that I won't ever have to decide that tomorrow or 5 years from now? It is something we have to do on a daily basis. Be Thankful. Be Positive. Be Happy. Exercise Our Bodies. Exercise Our Minds!! May your life be full of ways to Make Your Brain Stronger!! Happy Monday!! 

Connections Sunday March 1

Good Morning Sunshine!! What are you thankful for today??  I'm thankful for the Connections that I have made!! Do you need help in your business or help losing those last 10 pounds or help figuring out your spiritual walk??  Sometimes we get so used to the company that we keep, we don't even consider there are other people in this world that can help us along.  When we find ourselves needing help,  we have to make a conscious decision to meet someone new.  The more people we meet,  the more chances we have to be able to receive the help that we've been seeking!! Even if we can help someone else by building them up, inspiring them or even a pat on the back... That is enough!!  We need to connect with other people and build relationships so we know that we're not alone. When we help someone else by empowering them, they will return the favor!  And you never know, they might be holding the piece that you've been looking for!!  May you have the courage to step out of your comfort zone to connect with someone new!! Happy Sunday!!
