Good morning and Happy Saturday:) It is another beautiful day here in Utah, the sky is not as blue as yesterday, but still amazing...it is warmer out this morning, 43 degrees and little to no wind at all. I pray your morning is going well, that you are taking some time for you and that your day is full of fun plans not house "chore plans" Congrats to the Columbia Roughneck football team on their District Championship win! Those young men are unstoppable! Congrats to the Cardinals, World Series Champions for 2011, Ranger will just have to do it next year!!!!
In prayer this morning I sat in total silence having a wonderful chat with our Father in Heaven, I fervently prayed my normal, usual prayers and then began to pray special specific prayers that were requested of me during the night and early this morning. In closing I asked God what I could do today to make a difference in someones life, how could I be of service to him, would he please show me where he needed me to be! Yesterday Wayde and I were our running some errands and I was looking at people, it seemed to me that overall there was no joy, there were no smiles or eye contact from the people we saw, most walking with their heads looking down, their shoulders slumped, their faces droll and frowny. Out of the few that did look around I only received one return smile and it was not even genuine! What has happened to us as a nation, I remember when you could go out and actually strike up a conversation with people in the market, I remember when people smiled and laughed but now it seems we are but a group of zombies just trudging along looking for our grave! I told Wayde that it is sad what we have become. I will never stop smiling, I will never stop laughing and I have decided to do a project today, everywhere that I go I will not just look for eye contact, I will say "hello, how are you today?" Hopefully I will get some type of response and before I walk away I vow that I will have done my dead level best to see a smile. I think we can get back to a happier existence if we put forth effort and make it happen. I ask that you join me in my quest today, if you can turn one frown upside down, then you have done your part! Let there be "happiness" on earth and let it begin with me:) LOL
May this day be filled with sunshine and butterflies for you , may grins and giggles be in all that you do and may you feel like you have made a difference when you lay your head down tonight!
God bless each of you with his love!
If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook.
