Happy Friday everyone and welcome to the very edge of another weekend! Another opportunity to make a difference with a shared sincere smile or just a kind word sent to another.
This weekend take time out and enjoy your surroundings, take in the cool crisp winter air.
Here at our house we are baking Christmas cookies so the winter air along with the fresh smell of baking cookies should be awesome. Coffee will be the beverage of choice and the memories made should be priceless. Take time to make your memories this holiday season.
My childhood had some memories of drives through the neighborhoods to see the holiday lights, we would pack a lunch or pick up take out and just drive for hours looking at the Christmas lights twinkle and flash. Great memories.
Later when I had kids every year we would drive to the local outdoor light set ups, they have one here that includes a village, horse drawn carriages and even an outdoor bonfire where you can listen to Christmas music, drink some hot cocoa and watch the flames dance. Great memories shared.
These are the moments that we all can take remembrance of on those nights when we just want to reflect on how good life has been to us. These are the thoughts that should help us all share a smile or a kind moment with someone more in need of that break in life.
Like a river running through the banks of a tree lined valley, these are the memories that flow through our life. Make sure you put some in your memory bank. Make sure you plant them within the hearts of your children or grand children.
Sure, times are tough, everywhere you see unemployment, people struggling with in this economy but the memories made, and quiet times share will carry us through.
Back in March 18, 2009 I wrote the mission statement for Make ME Smile Online our mission reads as:
Provide a place on the Internet to promote, share, develop, entertain and educate its visitors and members that the simple yet powerful result of happiness the"Smile' can change the broken hearted, the lonely, the sad and help to change not only their world but theworld of others.
One Smile at a Time!
Our goal to develop an online community to help andconquer the stress that this imperfect world produces.
The human spirit that we know can and will produceidea's, inspiration and energy that will carry itthrough these tough times.
One Smile at a Time!
That was then and the mission lives on, we only need smile advocates to carry it forward, people just like you who read this that also realizes that a smile, simple and sincere can change lives. It always has and it always will. We just need to apply the effort and take the time.
Just flowing into Friday with you and sending you a smile along the journey.
May your smiles abound.
May your joy lift another spirit.
May you stay hungry and stay foolish!
May your heart be warmed because it always was.
Smiles sent your way this day and always!
