Happy Thursday everyone and welcome to a new day and a chance, yes more than a chance to make a difference in someone's life, maybe a smile, maybe a laugh shared, maybe just a kind word and maybe even an act of kindness. So many ways to make a difference, so many chances to jump into the fray and say yes I can and I will share that moment with you.
Just a thought, and I hate politic's, I do, I think the officials that we elect to serve us, serve the special interest groups and lobby sector much as well as their own spending needs much more than they care about the whole. But hey that's just me.
I know there are some politicians who listen and care and react when you need them but hey as a whole this next story I share with you seems all to prevalent.
Scott Brown, the newly elected US Senator from Massachusetts, the person who replaced the late Ted Kennedy, was the deciding vote to refuse to extend the unemployment benefits to some 2,000,000 million people over the holiday season, that is 2,000,000 million that will start wading through more concerns that have already mounted and look into the Christmas season with dismay and the eyes of children with even more concern.
But hey it gets better, the same Scott Brown, US Senator from Massachusetts, is throwing a $100 a plate holiday party tonight at the Park Plaza Hotel in Boston. A bash for those who have and nothing for those who already have little. Wow a modern day scrooge perhaps.
But hey it gets better, the same Scott Brown, US Senator from Massachusetts, also recently was the vote that prevented a $19 Billion tax on the Financial Banking Industry that would give some much needed revenue to provide services to the needy.
Tax cuts for the rich and just cuts for those who need.
'hey, I know you lost your job, you have a family now buck up and get a job, oh your not finding one.....keep looking and by the way I am having a party downtown, hope you can come......'
Say it isn't so Charlie Brown, or sorry Scott Brown!
A quote from the Dalai Lama:
If you can, help others; if you cannot do that,
at least do not harm them.

Just a Theory on Thursday.......Enjoy your day and at the very least share a smile! It may just help to heal a hurt.
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!
Happy Thursday everyone! : )
