Many spend their entire life searching for the answers never realizing they were always just 12 inches away.

Many who achieved fame have struggled with maintaining an image that is not their true being at heart.  This creates an inner conflict that has led to drug abuse, mental illness, and even death.  It's not only the famous.  With the inception of social media it is becoming more of an issue.  This is a major contributor to the increase in anxiety, depression, and drug use in our young generation.  

Trying to be anything other than who God made us to be will cause struggle and rob us from the great joys of life.

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”  Ralph Waldo Emerson

I often receive requests to read poems, letters, and even eulogies.  However, I have never received one that touched me as this poem did.  It was sent to me anonymously and was exactly what I personally needed.  I did my very best to honor the beautiful words and hope it fills your heart as it did mine.  

No matter what your beliefs are, none can deny there is a greater power within us, around us, and beyond us.  When asked who he was, Jesus simply answered "I am".  Not I was, or I will be, but I am.  Because he is the same yesterday, today and forever.   This assurance of knowing that I am not in this journey alone gives me great comfort and joy.  

On August 7, 1971, the poem “I Am There” was famously carried to the moon by Apollo 15 astronauts James B. Irwin, David R. Scott, and Alfred M. Worden. Stored in a microfilm file, the poem was intended to be left there for future space explorations.

Many people will go to a job that they don't like tomorrow because it's what they did yesterday.  The only difference is that they will be two days older and have two days less to achieve their dreams.  

Yesterday ended last night.  Make a move today that will put you a step closer to your goals tomorrow.

 Many people use New Year's Day as a new beginning for improving areas of their life.  The sad fact is 43%  fail before February, and almost one out of four quit within the first week of setting their New Year’s resolution. Most people quit before the end of January, and only 9% see their resolutions through until succession.  

So, why do we set these lofty annual goals for ourselves?  We should make every day New "Day" Day!  We don't know what tomorrow holds, but we have an opportunity to improve the quality of our lives everyday that we wake up.  If we focus more on the beauty of today and worry less about the troubles of tomorrow we will achieve our resolutions 100%.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I may never know the true meaning of success, but I do know that it cannot be bought.

We all have different opinions, thoughts, and ideas of how to get from point A to point B.  In the end, the only thing that matters is that we get there.  It is okay to be passionate about our perspective, but it is not okay to judge or be critical of those with opposing views.  In the words of the great Charlie Brown can’t we all just get along?!!!

“We can agree to disagree, but we don’t need to be disagreeable.”  John Wooden

Life can be challenging and to succeed we must get a little dirt on us sometimes.  The determining factor between success and failure is whether we allow the dirt to bury us or provide nutrients for us to grow.

 “If you’re going through hell, keep going,” is a quote attributed to Winston Churchill that has wisdom beyond its short appearance. Recognizing that it might currently feel like hell, but there is a future beyond it, helps us remember that pain is fleeting. It won’t be here forever, but neither will we, so keep going.  Unfortunately, many of us extend our stay because our we continue to struggle for control of things that are not within our power.  It is when we are in our lowest valleys that we are better to let go and put our faith in the hands of someone who can drive us out.
