&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;Wednesday was my youngest son’s birthday.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I bought him a much desired smartphone.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Since being introduced to the ipod he could
be seen constantly carrying it around everywhere.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I would always tell him to tune-in.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Tune-in into the movie, conversation, or the just
moment.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;While riding in the car with him
I thought I needed to tell him one of my pet peeves.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Even though he already knew the half-a-dozen
things that got under my skin I failed to tell him this one thing.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I did not think it was right to keep fussing
at him about something I never told him was a problem.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I started off, “I don’t think I have ever
told you this but one of my pet peeves is when people are always on the phone
or gadgets.” I went on to explain that I have always disliked when people I
choose to spend time with answer calls and proceed to talk or continually text
or &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/LivinLifeWithPurpose?ref=hl&quot;&gt;FB&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I think it is rude.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I told him since we are always together I
would give a little bit of a pass but when we are hanging out that is our
time.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He understood.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Telling him that made me wonder whatever
happened to being connected to people in the moment? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;Don’t get me wrong there is nothing wrong with checking your
phone every once in a while we all do it. The problem lies in getting into a full-on
unimportant conversation while I am sitting there twitling my thumbs.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It is very rude.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It tells me you don’t value my time and in
some way you don’t value me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I honestly
don’t think people do this on purpose.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;Actually, the world has become all about being &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;plugged-in.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;We think if we unplug we’ll miss what’s going in the world or least in
the world of our FB friends.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Have we learned
to value our virtual connections over the real ones? We somehow want their approval
on the things we do, say and post.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;Don’t get me wrong I have been there, posting to get a
reaction.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;We have all loved the euphoric
feeling of getting the notification of a liked post.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;(If you say not me…you’re lying.) Reality is
that we all enjoy approval but what about real personal connections? What about
having face-to-face contact? Don’t you miss seeing people smile or hearing a
real friend laugh at your jokes? We really don’t have that anymore.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Have we rejected those connections for LIKES?
&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;It makes me sad.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I
miss getting mail.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Not just bills and “Dear
Resident” letters.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I mean letters from friends
and family you haven’t spoken to or seen in a while.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I miss hanging out with a friend or a loved
one talking for hours about all the things we missed since the last time we
spoke.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It is frustrating when you find
out something important about someone close to you on FB.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I loved when my nephew and his wife found out
they were expecting they picked up the phone to call.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I felt really special that I could share that
moment with them.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It made me feel
connected to their lives. It was a perfect example of what I’ve been talking
about.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;I hope that by sharing my thoughts I have given you the
desire to connect or to stay- in-the moment.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;It is so important to stay connected.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/span&gt;We have to make sure when we have the privilege to spend time with
someone we stay- in-the moment.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Make
sure you cherish that time because we can never get back that moment back.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;The magazines, media and people help shape how we think about ourselves.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;They tell us how to dress, act, parent, and love.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;If you dare to cross the boundaries that society has set-up for us you risk violating the “New School Code of Ethics.” Society says we have very little room to make mistakes or show our own individuality. It is almost like you need approval to be yourself.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I am here to tell you…Being you is just fine.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;We were all made to think and feel differently.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Sooner or later we have all fallen into the trap of seeking approval from others.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I myself have been there many times.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I wondered, “Why don’t people understand me,” or “What am I missing?”&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I thought I had to have certain people’s approval to define my success.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What ended up happening I became uncomfortable and frustrated? This made me give up until I realized I could not let people change me. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;I learned that I don’t have to fit a mold. I don’t have to have anyone’s approval. For every 1 negative result there are 10 positive results. We spend our time trying to seek approval and fit the mold we fail to see that people like us just the way you are. Everyone is not going to believe in your dreams. Everyone is not going to like the way you dress. It is OK.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Being you is so much better than being a copy of someone else’s original. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;It has been a long time! I must apologize! &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I have truly missed you.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I had to take some time out to make sure I was going in the right direction.&amp;nbsp; From time to time we all have to evaluate things to keep from going too far off a cliff!&amp;nbsp; I felt like I was running around in circles chasing my tail.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I decided I needed to get&amp;nbsp;clarity. To do that you have to separate yourself.&amp;nbsp; It is not always easy but so necessary.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Trebuchet MS;&quot;&gt;I found out things about myelf that I never knew.&amp;nbsp; I really started to see things clearer. The confusion was gone. The worry fell off. The anxiety stopped.&amp;nbsp; When I learned a lesson I felt like, a tank of gas getting filled with Super Premium Gas until the tank was running over. I want to share what&amp;nbsp;I learned, hopefully they will help you, too.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6; font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Here&#39;s What I learn:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;Success is not always pretty.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I learned that everyone is not happy about your success.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Like the old saying, &quot;like crabs in a barrel,&quot; some always wants to pull you down. Some people want&amp;nbsp;to keep you from being successful. Others want to become successful before you. It is just how it goes. The great thing is there are those people&amp;nbsp;that&amp;nbsp;are happy for your success and will comfort you in failure. Those people are rare. Keep them close.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;You are uniquely you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; In the world today, we have learned to change who we are to adapt to our environment.&amp;nbsp; No one wants to be the first person to be different but if you are going to be true to yourself you have to &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;dare to be different&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;Make Things happen.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; You are responsible for your success. The&amp;nbsp;bottom-line&amp;nbsp;is, not everyone sees your dream.&amp;nbsp; Everyone does not understand who you are&amp;nbsp;or what qualifies you to handle the task.&amp;nbsp; Despite, what people may say, &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;It Is Up To You To Make Things Happen!&lt;/span&gt; Who&#39;s dream is it anyway? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In life there are winners and losers.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The&amp;nbsp;losers always have a million excuses why they are not successful. They always talk about success but never do anything to achieve it.&amp;nbsp; Winners see opportunity in everything.&amp;nbsp; They always make a way when it seems impossible.&amp;nbsp; Which one are you, &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;loser or winner?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;Stop giving it up for free?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I am talking about help.&amp;nbsp; I love helping people.&amp;nbsp; I want everyone to be successful.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Many times I have helped people to my own detriment.&amp;nbsp;Then, I wonder why I am never successful. Duh? Because I you spend all your time helping others more than yourself.&amp;nbsp;I decided I&amp;nbsp;will help but&amp;nbsp;I will put limits and boudaries on my time.&amp;nbsp; I aslo decided If people need special projects completed they can pay for my time, like we all pay for special services. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Trebuchet MS;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;Stop doing it all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Pick what you are truly good at and do that.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Let people know what you bring to the table.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Why not say, &quot;I am can do this, this and this. If, you need me in&amp;nbsp;those areas I can help.&quot;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;Have&amp;nbsp;the courage to know your own limitations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I learned alot.&amp;nbsp; It has made me a better person.&amp;nbsp; I am not spending my time spinning my wheels on pointless stuff. Nor am I listening to the nay-sayers.&amp;nbsp;I can&amp;nbsp;honestly say I know myself. I am happy.&amp;nbsp; Truly happy.&amp;nbsp; Because I took the time to put things into perspective I feel confident, excited, and my passion has been renewed.&amp;nbsp; I understand who I am. I know am able to do what&amp;nbsp; I put my mind to.&amp;nbsp; Powerful!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I want to encourage you to take a time out to find clarity. If you have been feeling lost, empty, and&amp;nbsp;trying things&amp;nbsp;but you are still not satisfied. You need to do this!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Take time to think, evaluate and renew.&amp;nbsp; You are worth it! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The after math has been crazy.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I always wondered why people go on to live these happy lives and never pay back the sentiment.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Why, cause I put too much into them and nothing into me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Or I would encourage the whole world (it felt like) and no one ever encouraged me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I would be so hurt.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;So, disappointed.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The Kicker would be when I got into relationships with men.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I would be like the best girlfriend encouraging and supportive. But never get the same back.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Then, they go off with the next chick and she benefits from all my hard work.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I was too done.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;I felt like everyone around me was gifted and talented. Other people had so much to give and I had nothing. I could see everyone living in purpose but I never saw it in myself.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I guess that is why I gave so much to everyone else.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;At the same, I felt like the things inside of me were so little and dumb.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;I had to realize a few things about me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Well, &lt;strong&gt;I am a natural born encourager or exhorter.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I can’t help myself even if I tried.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Words just flow out me like water.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I had to realize that God will always put me in the path of people in need.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;How far I take is on me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;(Which, I guess I could have taken it too far I in the past.)&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I love serving people.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I love doing big things little things anything to help.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It just happens.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I speak truth.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Lord, knows that has gotten me in trouble.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I am not saying I have never lied but I don’t like dishonesty.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I actually have to be truthful I freak out when I don’t.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I have learned to control how I say things but if you don’t want the truth don’t ask me. &lt;strong&gt;I see things other people don’t.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I will notice the minutest detail or I will give ideas and thoughts in details no one can understand but me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;(My kids hate this.) That is probably why I ask a lot of questions. I have tried to stop myself but I can’t.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I guess that is the strategic planner in me. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I love to research all kinds of stuff.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Trust me when I say I know all kinds of information and I know it is not all for my use.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I love to network&lt;/strong&gt;, in person or virtually via Twitter of course.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;My interest is peaked and I try to make connections with each person I meet.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I guess that is why I know so many people.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am creative.&lt;/strong&gt; I can almost never do anything totally by the book without adding my own flare.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;From cooking to writing to my everyday life I am always creating something new.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;With all that being said, it has become almost imperative that I accept me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I have to finally just live and be me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I guess my whole life in some ways I have been running away from all the things that are uniquely me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I guess&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;my whole life I was doing all the things God created me to do.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;In 2013, I am not going to kill myself trying to prove that I am good enough.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I am not going to push to fit in a mold that will never fit.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I understand now that &lt;strong&gt;I love helping people find purpose.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;All those things that I have in me help others find purpose. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;With a new outlook on life I am able to be ok with being me.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;And move forward.&amp;nbsp;I am able to help people and&amp;nbsp; with no expectation. I am totally confortable with&amp;nbsp;who God created me to be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;Valentine’s Day is coming and I think it is soooo important for Woman to make sure they keep the romance alive in their marriage or relationship.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I am not married (boo) and have never been married so I have to live vicariously through my married friends. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;I am not in a relationship and not planning on having sex until I am married. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;So, romance is kind of of out of the question, for now.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; (We will replace romance for the word sex, keeping it clean.) &lt;/span&gt;Anyway! I know many of my friends talk about, “After you are married for while the romance is out the door.” I sit there in shock every time.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What no romance?&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What in the world?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;It is so beyond me that married people say&amp;nbsp;we don’t have time or we are too tired for roamance. Come on people.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;How are you supposed to keep that special Godly Bond going?&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I think&amp;nbsp;as a woman you should never withhold sex from your husband or ignore his need to connect with you.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The reason being is if &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;you&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; don’t then someone else will.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; It&#39;s s&lt;/span&gt;imple as that!&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Men need to feel special and loved just like you do.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Never forget that.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I think it&#39;s time to stop being selfish ladies and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #ea9999;&quot;&gt;romance your man&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;It is quite simple.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The little things for men work so easily.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Just try these things and see...&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ea9999;&quot;&gt;you&#39;ll be giddy as teenage girl at a Justin Bieber concert&lt;/span&gt;, when you are around your husband.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

If you don’t know&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ea9999;&quot;&gt; how to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #6fa8dc;&quot;&gt;boil water&lt;/span&gt; you should make sure you can at least cook his favorite meal. If nothing else.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

That&amp;nbsp;will be your last married mistake.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He could be blind crippled and crazy as a loon I guarantee that some hoochie is looking at him like...She is like&amp;nbsp;Sylvester smacking his lips when he sees innocent Tweety Bird. Trust Me! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;It is nothing wrong with spoiling your man.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;You want him do to all those things for you. Why not give him the same time and attention?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
&lt;img height=&quot;175&quot; id=&quot;il_fi&quot; src=&quot;http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQBawS0q4OsQa5riBYGUBF3R8Fu0hAIHVDBpTIzDFSN5eBr5YYhi6TJBH6K&quot; style=&quot;padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;&quot; width=&quot;288&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let the past be the past. How many times have you heard that? I know it is hard to forget the crazy things. Or even forget the good things. The past can keep you from moving forward. When we live in our past sadness, joys, and successes we tend to stay there. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Take for example, if you had a bad relationship you keep thinking that every person you meet after that is the same. Perhaps, you had great success and you keep going over and over how great it is was. You will never strive to make anything else happen. Whether, it is drama or success in your past it is still the past.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stop, playing that movie over and over&amp;nbsp;in your head. Make new things happen. That person that hurt you in the past is a jerk. Make sure you took the lesson and&amp;nbsp;keep&amp;nbsp;yourself from getting back in that situation again. Learn from&amp;nbsp;your past success&amp;nbsp;how to create&amp;nbsp;another in the future.&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have spent too much time thinking about the past. I had to let&amp;nbsp;go. Regardless, of what happened in the past life doesn&#39;t stop. Life keeps going on around you. That jerk is probably not even thinking about you. That success might have been the first but not the last. Life is full of joy and sadness to help you become who you are. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you get stuck in the past it stops you from&amp;nbsp;living. You become stagnant and life begins to stink,&amp;nbsp; like when a pond becomes stagnant. I know you don&#39;t want your life to stink. So, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;SNAP OUT OF IT! LIVE FOR THE PRESENT!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Today, was a historical day for our country. 50 years after the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_rights_movement&quot;&gt;Civil Rights Movement&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.whitehouse.gov/inauguration-2013&quot;&gt;2nd Inauguration&lt;/a&gt; of the First Black President on &lt;a href=&quot;http://mlkday.gov/&quot;&gt;Martin Luther King, Jrs&#39; Holiday&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; That was a lot.&amp;nbsp; It was a very meaningful day&amp;nbsp;to so many people.&amp;nbsp; We often don&#39;t think about what&amp;nbsp; people went through in the past to get us to this&amp;nbsp;day.&amp;nbsp; Many people lost their lives and were treated horrible.&amp;nbsp; We&amp;nbsp; often don&#39;t realize that most of us in this country today are not &lt;strong&gt;pure&lt;/strong&gt; Anglo-Saxon Or European Blood.&amp;nbsp; So, in reality all those people were fighting for you, too.&amp;nbsp; A little something to think about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The day was filled with all kinds of Pomp and Circumstance.&amp;nbsp;Most people were really wondering what &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/first-lady-michelle-obama&quot;&gt;Michelle Obama&lt;/a&gt; would wear today.&amp;nbsp; Since, stepping on the scene she has become a Fashion Icon.&amp;nbsp; She even has a &lt;a href=&quot;http://mrs-o.com/&quot;&gt;website&lt;/a&gt; all about her Fashion choices. She has set the trend and brought fame to lessor known Designers.&amp;nbsp; She has&amp;nbsp;made Sasha and Malia young fashionistas, as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I watched everything that day.&amp;nbsp; I love all the historical value and all the information going all over the TV gets me all excited.&amp;nbsp; Almost as soon I flip on the TV. I hear reporters talking about what Mrs. Obama will wear. It&#39;s National News! In case, you did not hear I would queue you in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the public swearing in ceremony she choose to wear a gorgeous dress and coat by designer &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thombrowne.com/about.php&quot;&gt;Thom Brown&lt;/a&gt; and belt by&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.jcrew.com/&quot;&gt; J. Crew&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;Michelle Obama&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;473&quot; src=&quot;http://www.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2013021/reg_634.michelle.ls.12113_copy.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Michelle Obama&quot; width=&quot;293&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
The&amp;nbsp;biggest prize winner is &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.jasonwustudio.com/&quot;&gt;Jason Wu&lt;/a&gt; once again.&amp;nbsp; In 2009, he designed her Ball Gown for&amp;nbsp;Mrs. Obama&#39;s &amp;nbsp;First &lt;span style=&quot;color: black;&quot;&gt;Inaugural Ball&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp; That one Fashion choice&amp;nbsp;put Jason&amp;nbsp;Wu on the map.&amp;nbsp; Now, he is practically a household name.&amp;nbsp; I wonder what this will do for his career? &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;Michelle Obama&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;473&quot; src=&quot;http://www.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2013021/reg_634.michelle.ls.12113.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Michelle Obama&quot; width=&quot;293&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
Like the president said today no matter how you feel about him you have to admit Michelle has done an outstanding job.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; It is so true!&amp;nbsp; She makes being the First Lady look so effortless and fun.&amp;nbsp; How many other First Lady&#39;s went on a National Talk show&amp;nbsp;running an obstacle course, joking and having fun?&amp;nbsp; None. You might think it is unbecoming of a First Lady but I think it makes her look quite normal and very likable.&amp;nbsp; Either way you gotta say the woman has style. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

We never get a chance to figure out what we should be doing with our lives.&amp;nbsp; We kinda get thrown into things.&amp;nbsp; Why not take the time out to honestly figure what you should be doing? And do it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know you can&#39;t put your current life aside and then just go into a long introspective.&amp;nbsp; But you can take some &quot;Me Time.&quot; More than an hour if you can, If not take an hour per day for at least week. That will help.&amp;nbsp; Aren&#39;t you tired of going through the motions?&amp;nbsp; Aren&#39;t you tired of watching TV and seeing other people live their dreams?&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More and more people each day are finding out who they are and what they want to do.&amp;nbsp; Why can&#39;t you be one of those people?&amp;nbsp; I definitely want to be one of those people.&amp;nbsp; I sit and watch TV and often find myself thinking, &quot;What does this person have that I don&#39;t? A great idea.&quot;&amp;nbsp; I have great ideas everyday.&amp;nbsp; May be they have a platform to make things happen.&amp;nbsp; The more important thing is how did they get there?&amp;nbsp; I mean mentally. What is the difference in their mentality and mine?&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the difference between them and me?&amp;nbsp; Is their ability to make things happen. But first they had to know what they wanted to do. They knew what made them special. They never would have figured that out with taking time out to think what they should be doing.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking that time out to find you and what you should be doing is not wrong. When you finally go for what is inside of you...you will be happier and more&amp;nbsp;fulfilled.&amp;nbsp;In 2013,&amp;nbsp;I will step out into the new me. The Me God Planned for me. As&amp;nbsp;I go along my journey I would love for you to&amp;nbsp;take a journey of your own.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;We can laugh and share.&amp;nbsp; I am making the move because I feel like I am worth the journey. Aren&#39;t you worth it? &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was taking a little time out to relax and chill.&amp;nbsp; So, I went exploring.&amp;nbsp;Exploring is one of the nicest things I enjoy doing.&amp;nbsp; I love finding these little surprises tucked back off the unbeaten path.&amp;nbsp; I decided to to drive around looking for one area but ended up by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vanderbilt.edu/&quot;&gt;Vanderbilt University&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; I had driven all through that area several times before.&amp;nbsp;This time&amp;nbsp;I became intrigued.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;would always see the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.childrenshospital.vanderbilt.org/&quot;&gt;Vanderbilt Children&#39;s Hospital&lt;/a&gt; and always wanted to go in but I never did. I decided today would be the day.&amp;nbsp; As I was parking I realized...I, and so many others, take advantage that I have healthy children.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I never really thought about it much except when two of my friends had sick babies at birth.&amp;nbsp; I prayed for them and worried with them but I never went to visit just because in that time&amp;nbsp;people need to focus their energy on their sick child.&amp;nbsp;As I walked to the entrance I thought about how many people have critically sick children.&amp;nbsp; Then, as I get on the elevator I saw a lady with a small baby pushing a an I.V. unit.&amp;nbsp; My heart went out to her and I gave a word of blessing.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked around and took picture.&amp;nbsp; I kept thinking about how many people come through&amp;nbsp;those very same areas every day&amp;nbsp;worried and frantic about their children.&amp;nbsp; What do you say to those people?&amp;nbsp; Even, the best words of encouragement can&#39;t keep them from the pain they are feeling inside.&amp;nbsp; A parents love is so strong it breaks so many boundaries, even the worst parents feel that kind of love.&amp;nbsp; So, when you have sick child&amp;nbsp; and you don&#39;t know if they will be ok you can only imagine the anguish.&amp;nbsp; You don&#39;t want to leave the room or let alone leave the hospital not even to shower.&amp;nbsp; How do you comfort them? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
I thought what can I do? What can I possibly&amp;nbsp;do?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I decided to go to the information station and find out about volunteering.&amp;nbsp; Of course, they were closed. Then, I decided to see what the NICU lobby area looked&amp;nbsp;like. Approached a receptionist. I asked if they had volunteers in&amp;nbsp;the NICU and&amp;nbsp;she said, &quot;Yes, they call them cuddlers,&quot; with excitement.&amp;nbsp; A&amp;nbsp;cuddler.&amp;nbsp; I cuddle babies.&amp;nbsp; I could cuddle tiny little babies.&amp;nbsp; The thought scared me.&amp;nbsp; I realized that&amp;nbsp;I need to pray about my direction and where to start.&amp;nbsp; I got back on the elevator with a couple.&amp;nbsp; The husband looked more relaxed then the Mom. She looked like she was about to break out crying at any moment.&amp;nbsp; I asked, &quot;How are you doing?&quot; The mother responded, &quot;Tired.&quot;&amp;nbsp; I said, &quot;How old is your baby?&quot; The father responded, &quot;3 days old.&quot;&amp;nbsp; I said &quot;I know your baby will be fine. I&#39;ll be praying for you,&quot; as we exited the elevator and they thanked me and walked over to the food court.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
Most of us live our life happy that we can see our children laugh and play. From time to time our children become sick and we spend a few sleepless nights to care for them.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;But, do you know there are people out there that have never seen their child play they just hope that one day they can take them home.&amp;nbsp; Think about it we get so annoyed that we have shlep our kids to dance, baseball,&amp;nbsp;and football but some of those parents spend most of their days in hospital room.&amp;nbsp; It is sad but it is reality for some parents. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&amp;nbsp;have no idea&amp;nbsp;if I will volunteer but&amp;nbsp;I do know that I will add&amp;nbsp;parents of sick chilren&amp;nbsp;to my prayer list.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I also know, that when I am yelling at my kids for something small and mundane there are some people that can&#39;t.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When all the presents have been opened and all the egg nog is gone what happens next? You may prepare for the next day or even the next holiday. All that is good but I&#39;m talking about going deeper. What happens next?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Too often we allow life to happen to us and we just play along. We are like actors in someone else&#39;s play. Why not be the writer of your own play? Your story does not have be a series of random&lt;br /&gt;
chain-reactions. You have to be pro-active. If, you want to be successful you have to plan. You have to get up and do something. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Key Word is &quot;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;You&lt;/span&gt;.&quot; God has given you a plan and purpose. You have to be willing to listen to&amp;nbsp; Him and start working on your plan.&amp;nbsp; You have to start somewhere. Start by creating a plan for 2013.&amp;nbsp; A&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt; Life Plan&lt;/span&gt;. A &lt;span style=&quot;color: #45818e;&quot;&gt;Life Plan&lt;/span&gt; is a great way to get you start to &lt;span style=&quot;color: #e06666;&quot;&gt;Livin Your Life With Purpose&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before, the New Year begins work on your life plan.&amp;nbsp; Below, I have a few links to help you get started.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
