Showing Common Sense

I have been in situations where someone who is more educated, or who is in a more senior position, made a decision I disagreed with. My common sense told me that it was the wrong decision. But, I thought they must know what they were doing because they were more educated, and in a more senior position. So I didn't say or suggest anything. But once the decision was made, . . .

STORY for Your WEEK

What Does It Take?

We all could say that we have bad days to endure as we go through life, but what does it take to have a really good day?

Some would suggest that a day would be great if everything they did turned out well, or they got exactly what they needed. On the other hand, have you ever thought that what you may give someone else may be the best day you ever had especially when you put someone else's well-being or happiness first on your list?

There is special warmth available to you and that warmth can come from a helping hand, doing a small favour for a total stranger, or even a smile.

POEM for Your WEEK

Drop A Pebble In The Water

Poet: James W. Foley

Drop a pebble in the water: just a splash, and it is gone;

But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on,

Spreading, spreading from the center, flowing on out to the sea.

And there is no way of telling where the end is going to be.

Drop a pebble in the water: in a minute you forget,

But there's little waves a-flowing, and there's ripples circling yet,

And those little waves a-flowing to a great big wave have grown;

You've disturbed a mighty river just by dropping in a stone.

Drop an unkind word, or careless: in a minute it is gone;

But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on.

They keep spreading, spreading, spreading from the center as they go,

And there is no way to stop them, once you've started them to flow.

Drop an unkind word, or careless: in a minute you forget;

But there's little waves a-flowing, and there's ripples circling yet,

And perhaps in some sad heart a mighty wave of tears you've stirred,

And disturbed a life was happy ere you dropped that unkind word.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness: just a flash and it is gone;

But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on,

Bearing hope and joy and comfort on each splashing, dashing wave

Till you wouldn't believe the volume of the one kind word you gave.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness: in a minute you forget;

But there's gladness still a-swelling, and there's joy a-circling yet,

And you've rolled a wave of comfort whose sweet music can be heard

Over miles and miles of water just by dropping one kind word.

THOUGHT for Your WEEK

Change Yourself

By Catherine Pulsifer

Repeatedly, we attempt the impossible and try to change other people — but attempting this is a waste of time!

Think of a time when you tried to change a personal habit. As we have absolute control over how we think, you would assume changing a habit is easy. It is not.

Stop and consider how difficult it is for us to try and change other people when we have no control over their thoughts. You cannot change other people, you can only change yourself. If you want them to change, then you must change.

Whether it is the behaviour of a child, a boss, a co-worker, a friend, or a spouse you are the one who must change. You can change the way you express your feelings towards the behaviour. Or, you can change your reaction to the behaviour. In some cases, you may have to change by accepting the behaviour.

The point is, you have control over you and that is the only person you can change.

There are very few people who do not dream, and, in fact, if you do not dream, this can lead to some very devastating results from a medical standpoint. For those who remember their nightly dreams, however, these dreams are usually much different than those you may have at the conscious level.

Conscious level dreaming is that state of mind that you have created with those thoughts, desires and wishes for something to happen in the future. These types of dreams can be . . . .

QUOTES for Your WEEK

"The habit of always putting off an experience until you can afford it, or until the time is right, or until you know how to do it is one of the greatest burglars of joy. Be deliberate, but once you've made up your mind -jump in.

Charles R. Swindoll

"The greatest amount of wasted time is the time not getting started."

Dawson Trotman

"Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the 'someday I'll' philosophy."

Denis Waitley

STORY for Your WEEK

Giving Back

It was a hard few years, I must admit. It had taken its toll on the finances as the years rolled by and I had to pay for university. I was living in a one room apartment with an old beat up couch, a wobbly old kitchen table with two chairs, a small black and white TV sitting on a book case made out of old two by six lumber supported with bricks. It wasn't pretty but it did do the job.

But, times were getting worse and I needed . . .

THOUGHT for Your WEEK

Setting An Example

Last week was an emotional week for many thousands of Canadians. Jack Layton, Leader of the Official Opposition Party in Canada, passed away.

To quote Albert Einstein, "Setting an example is not the main means of influencing another, it is the only means." I am not writing about politics, I am writing about a man who set an example for all of us. Mr. Layton influenced thousands of Canadians. He was an example of a man who truly had a passion for his work. He did not just speak about the issues; he actually worked to have issues resolved. He took up causes that he believed in, causes that many others shied away from – causes such as the homeless, AIDS, violence against women, the environment, to name only a few.

His life was dedicated to helping others who perhaps could not help themselves. He believed in equality for all and that no one should be left behind. He was a source of inspiration for thousands, and when he passed away on August 22nd, 2011, it shocked a nation. People of all political beliefs, of all ages were saddened. Never in this country's history has there been such an outpouring of emotion. And, the reason for this, is due to a man who supported and worked for the people; a man who would take up the cause of those less fortunate; a man that influenced and touched the lives of thousands of Canadians.

I leave you with a quote from a letter that Jack wrote to Canadians, and it is my hope that it inspires you and gives you some insight into a man that will be missed:

"My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world."

Jack Layton

1950 - 2011

THOUGHT for Your WEEK

The Hard Part Of Balance

A lot of people talk about balance in life today especially since we all seem to have really busy lives no matter whom we are or what we do. I suppose it is fair to say that this is part of our modern society. Not too long ago, however, I remember a lot of discussion around the advancement of technology and how it would make our lives a lot easier. I now doubt this very much for a number of reasons.

If you are unfortunate enough to work for a company in a capacity other than an employee who can honestly say that their job responsibilities definitely end when the clock strikes five, you are probably very familiar with a briefcase full of work, or a laptop, email, cell phones, and Blackberries. Now, a lot of people have taken . . . . .

STORY for Your WEEK

Gift Of Love In Many Ways

There are many gifts that we give through the course of a year, and some of these are for special people in our lives as well as for many friends and family. Sometimes, these gifts are really no more than an acknowledgement of friendship, or those given to commemorate a special day like a wedding anniversary or a birthday.

Have you thought, though, how many of these gifts were gifts of love? The difference is that gifts of love need not be, and most probably are not, materialistic. These gifts of love can take many forms including the love of a mother for her children to protect them from harm, or the love shown through sacrifice of time or energy so that another may benefit from your action.

A gift of love can occur in the strangest of ways as was experienced by my sister and I many years ago.
