Do you jingle?

Of course, everybody jingles! Especially these cute little jingle Santas jingling their jingle bells.

Santa, Christmas and jingle bells – what immediately comes to mind? How about the jingling of the Salvation Army bells during the holiday red kettle drive. Charity is often times a holiday thing but charity doesn’t happen only at the holidays.

Summer fan drives, adding the extra dollar to your electric bill to help those less fortunate, natural – and sometimes not so natural – disaster relief, homeless pets… the list goes on. What’s your favorite cause? How does it feel to donate your time or money to that cause? Knowing how even small contributions by each person can collectively make such a huge impact. Even when our own situations might be lacking or stressful, giving is receiving.

Feeling bad? Do something for someone else and feel better. It seems counter-intuitive but it’s almost always true. Finding or making just the right gift for just the right person on just that perfect occasion is such a thrill. The joy we receive from true giving is way bigger than whatever the gift may have been.

If someone could figure out a way to bottle that we’d all be rich. And not just in the monetary sense.

So if jingle Santas lead to thoughts of holiday charity, and holiday charity leads to thoughts of year round giving, and we’re inspired to give, in whatever way feels right, no matter what we do or don’t have, then we each can feel like the richest person in the world.

Are you naughty or nice? 

Oh, no! What’s Santa doing checking his list already? Be careful out there all you naughties. You’ve got some time but you better hurry. Santa checks his list again later in the year for the whole year. Better get busy raking in those good points.

For all the nice people out there, thank you. Nice is better. Way better.

It’s so easy to be polite. To be courteous to our fellow shoppers, travelers, drivers, etc.

Put good out there and good comes back to you. Hold the door for the person coming into the store behind you. When you’re sitting at a stoplight, leave a space for the guy pulling out of the parking lot to merge into traffic. Never, ever run red lights.

That’s just a part of my list. Each person can come up with his or her own set of things that work - or not. But for those of us who keep being nice and doing good, Santa knows exactly where to find us.

Have a great day!

Some princesses are strong, some are quieter, some kick butt and some can be described as all three. Not just girl power either, but boys too if they want to be included.

 just because i’m a princess… doesn’t mean i can’t kick your butt!

 Just because I’m physically smaller, doesn’t mean I won’t stick up for myself.

Just because I’m taken care of doesn’t mean I don’t have a voice.

Just because you have more money than me doesn’t mean I’m beneath you.

Just because your job is higher ranked than mine doesn’t mean I’ll tolerate disrespect.

Just because I have self-esteem doesn’t mean I’m a bitch.

Make up one of your own… then go kick some butt!!!

Have a great day!

Do you know exactly who you are, just who you want to be? Do you already know what you want to contribute to the universe? Then you know how to move to your own tune. 

Don’t know yet? Is it as simple as a different job? Your label says you’re a secretary but in your heart you know you’re an inventor. Perhaps a friend with the same dilemma just needs to live somewhere else. Who and what surrounds a person can change his perspective, his confidence and creative redesign.

 Unlimited possibilities DO exist all around you. And you can make a difference. Opportunities compound once you start utilizing them. Obstacles only serve to make the goal worthwhile. If you can inspire yourself to find your true identity, nothing can stand in your way.

 Wear and share that great attitude and pass it along to everyone you pass. View this and other fun designs on graphic shirts and more at our CafePress store www.cafepress.com/maristelli
