Attitude
=========
.
The longer I live,
the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
.
Attitude to me is more important than facts.
.
It is more important than the past, than education, than money,
than circumstances, than what other people think, or say or do.
.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill.
.
It will make or break a company, a church or a home.
.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the
attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our
past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a
certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.
.
The only thing that we can do is to play on the one string we

Ride To The Airport
====================
.
Billy Graham had just finished a tour of the Florida East Coast
and was taking a limousine to the airport.
.
Having never driven a limo, he asked the chauffeur if he could
drive for a while. The chauffeur didn’t really have much of a
choice, so he got in the back of the limo and Rev. Graham took
the wheel.
.
He turned onto I-95 and accelerated to about 90 MPH.
.
Soon the blue lights of the State Highway Patrol flashed in his
rearview mirror.
.
He pulled over and a trooper came to his window.
.
When the trooper saw who it was, he said,
“Just a moment, please, I need to call in.”
.
The trooper radioed in and asked for the chief.
.
He said, “I have a REALLY important person pulled over and I
need to know what to do.”
.
The chief replied, “Who is it, I hope not Ted Kennedy?”
The trooper said, “No, even more important.”
.
“It isn’t the Governor, Jeb Bush, is it?” asked the chief.
.
“No, even more important,” replied the trooper.

Doeth Good Like Medicine
<><><><><><><><><>
.
“A Merry heart doeth good like medicine.”
– Prov. 17:22 (KJV)
.
Hospital volunteers do no clinical work. Volunteers have no physically therapeutic treatment of offer. They dispense no medicine. But we cannot deny that they demonstrate the merry hearts as spoken of in Proverbs 17:22. At the core of volunteering is the fervent desire to “doeth good like medicine.” Because I am privileged to experience a daily confirmation of the good done by volunteers, it is very difficult to choose one vignette or narrow the choices of stories to one.
.
It was Christmas time and our elderly visitor was back to see her husband in the Intensive Care Unit. We had watched her daily visits, and could tell she was becoming more distant and distraught with each day. She was rather frail and unsteady on her feet, but refused any offer of assistance.
.
Volunteer John approached her on her way out, to offer her a ride back to her car in our shuttle as it was cold. She accepted reluctantly, almost as if in resignation. While helping her into the shuttle,

PONDER THESE THINGS
..
A New Relationship with Time
(An excerpt from Dreams Are Whispers from the Soul)
..
Probably no other complaint is voiced more often than not having enough time.
“I don’t have time to pursue my dreams or to even know what my dreams are. I don’t have time for me, for my family and friends. Basically, I don’t have time to live my life.”
..
Passion is the ultimate time management tool for two reasons. First, when you are doing what you love, who cares about time? When you are with someone special, or listening to a great piece of music, or painting or volunteering, doesn’t time just fly by? Second, when you are doing what you love it often gets done faster.
..
The way we spend our time is the way we spend our lives. Can you slow down enough to get “in synch” with life, nature, and most importantly, yourself? Tune in to your rhythm and natural pulse. Take off your watch and give yourself a day off. Eat when you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired so you can discover who you are, what you need and what works best for you.
..
Make a date with yourself, every day if possible. Even if for only a half hour, carving out time for you is a great act of generosity. Your work can usually wait a half hour, but your soul can’t.
..
Whether we like it or not, the clock keeps ticking so live fully, every single second of every single day.
..
Learn the true joy of doing less and having more as you experience each day as priceless. Fill your life
