It's your choice

What's the difference between marriages that last 10 years and ones that last 50? Choices! We may not always "feel" like we love those we are married to, but it's only then when we can truly choose to love our spouses. Choose today to love those to whom you committed your lives, even if it doesn't "feel" right. Make the Change!

It's Your Turn

There are so many times I pass by a place day after day and say to myself, why doesn't anyone take care of that piece of land, or the corner, or I drive up to a building and see a huge dirt spot and say how horrible that looks and wonder why someone doesn't just spread some grass seed on it. I figured out this week, it’s because everyone is just like me, they pass the same spot and ask the same questions and no one does it. So this week if you have a certain spot that you have really been complaining about lately and can work on it and make it look better, then just do it. You will probably make so many people happy and be a local hero. Make the Change!

Everyone needs someone to talk to!

I've been walking a lot lately and have met some great people, but the other day I met a homeless man, most homeless people have a great story of tragedy to tell and then ask for money and tell another story of tragedy, but this man was happy, he had no tragic tale to tell, just how he was lonely and was wanting to know some information about current events and the weather. We talked and I realized that some times we like to throw money at problems, buy "things" that we think will make a difference, but in some cases our time is all that's really needed. Take the time to share yourself with someone who needs you, it may be the best gift you can give! Make the Change!
