Dinner~~ If you could choose to get rid of one animal on earth, what would it be? Snakes!!!!

Midnight Snack~~ If your life were a made for TV program, would it be a reality show, documentary, sit-com, cartoon, drama series, or a talk show? I think it would be a Thursday night special of all of the above!! Always something new on Channel 6COX!!

Monday Makeover

”If you want happiness for an hour-take a nap
If you want happiness for a day-go fishing.
If you want happiness for a month-get married.
If you want happiness for a year-inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime-help others.”-Chinese Proverb


I enjoyed this proverb: it contains so many of the things we try in our pursuit of happiness. Yet, its bottom line reveals what we quickly realize to be true if we review our happiest moments-we create happiness when we help others. When we continually give of ourselves, we will be hurt from time-to-time, but we will also realize very rich rewards-a type of happiness that can’t be taken away because we know we made a difference.
As you go about your day, be observant of opportunities to help others. Watch how those acts of kindness bring an unparalleled joy to the soul.
Today make up your mind to say: I am never too busy to lend a helping hand.
