I like the way Winston Churchill so succinctly stated: “We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.” A bonus is that happiness is a byproduct of a generous life. In other words, when giving one can expect a “helper’s high” thanks to the endorphins that are generated.

I encountered this cheery rock on my morning walk with my little buddy, Butterfinger. It put a smile on my face & it inspired me to reach out to others in whatever fashion/media that I might find available. In other words, I encourage you to make time for & never regret doing anything that might put a smile on someone’s face- even if it’s just your own.
How about taking it to the next level & have a grateful day…

…be open to all your “joy”ney holds. The universe is abundant- partake of the banquet of life & experience “la dulce vita.” The bottom line is, it’s our choice how we live our lives. Every day we have the opportunity to live fully. How we greet, meet, & complete each day is our choosing.
