Touch Therapy For The Heart

The best way to be remembered is to leave a lasting mark on one's heart.  Sounds too cheesy?  Well, the way people affects us has a huge impact on how we remember them.  Just imagine the last person that annoyed you?  Was it during one of your drives or a pathetic customer service representative.  More than what they did, it's how they made you feel.  Likewise, when people make us feel good, we associate something positive about that person.  Like it or not but we often want some touch therapy for our emotions.  After all, we are creatures with a lot of emotions.

A smile goes a long way compared to a frown.  A kind word can cheer up someone's day.  A helpful gesture can ease up the burden of others.  More than just following social graces, this ia bout making a mark on someone's heart.

What was the last kind gesture you did?  Make someone else's day a little brighter.  Perhaps you can brighten up your day as well.

The Scary Steps In Life

I find myself faced with challenges.  Often they are trivial while others scare the hell out of me.  I suppose everyone feels threatened or unsure of something at one point or another.  But unless we face these fears we can never truly move forward in life.  Surprisingly, these scary points in my life are the ones that tend to strengthen me.  Some would argue that psychology comes into play.  Others point to a higher power.  And still others attribute the big leap to trusting one's gut.  Well, regardless of how you see it, life is full of scary steps.  Whether we take it or not all depends on our own willingness to face the reality of uncertainty or at least gulp down the dread that is eating our insides.  But to those who eventually take that step into the unknown or uncertainty, much is revealed.

Life is full of challenges.  But unless we play the game we will never know if we will succeed.  I am thankful for the species long before man that tried something different.  As the first animals crawled out of the ocean or when our early ancestors first took their steps upright, we all have the capability to make a tremendous impact on life.  Who knows, the next time you step out of that door, you are making a huge leap for all mankind - or at least just for your own success.

A True Love's Kiss

It is a wonder how the bond of a mom and her daughter can easily show love.  Gestures as simple as a kiss becomes a testament of true love.  My daughter and my wife have a special bond.  This unique and strong connection is evident everyday and it grows constantly.  I suppose nothing in this world can out-compare this love that they share.  And it gives me comfort to know that they share this special love.
