Free time is time to do the everyday things you never have time to do.

You don't have to make expensive exciting plans to entertain yourself every moment you get time off. You have plenty of things you can do that you always put off because your always so busy you never have time to do. Plan to relax at home with your family eating dinner and watching a movie together which you never have time yo do. You could go for a walk and a picnic at a local park which you never have time to do. When you find yourself with free time use it to do the simple things with your family that you never have time for not fill up all your free time not allowing you to do all the things you never have time for to ever get done.

What can I say I just forgot.

Well my wacky Wednesday threw me off track. Each morning you make a list of what needs done that day but sometimes you can remind yourself over and over again that there is something important you still haven't done yet in the end you forget to do it. That is why putting things off till later can sometimes bite you in the butt. I knew yesterday was a blog day but I kept putting it off and well here it is Thursday. A day late and a dollar short as the old saying goes. But better late then never. I hope this will remind all of you to remember that you just got to do what you got to do when it needs to be done if you are going to get it done on time.

Life is like a bowl of fruit.

Life doesn't go by a script. There are twist and turns as well as storms and sunshine. Life is a mixture of fruit that requires you to accept that sometimes you get rotten fruit in the mix. When you do, throw it out before it spoils the whole fruit salad. You have to take the good with the bad in life but one bad apple can't spoil it unless you let it.

In case you forgot

Have you ever been so busy you forget something important? If you are lucky your built in warning signal will have a final alarm that will be so drastic you won't be able to ignore it like you had been doing all day as you were so busy you couldn't hear the earlier warnings. Although you may not be happy that it is happening it jolts your memory just in time to do it before it would have been too late. In the end you will be so thankful that it happened to remind you. Everything happens for a reason even though at the time you sure can't see any reason that it was happening at all.

You have to Just Do It to get it done.

You can't reach your goal unless you make a goal. You can't learn from your mistakes unless you admit you made a mistake. You can't gain respect unless you are respectful. Your dreams can't come true unless you dare to dream. You can't get the answers you need unless you ask the question. You can't get where you need to be unless you get up and get moving towards it. If you want or need something you can't get it unless you do what you have to do to get it. If it's up to you then you have to Just Do It to Get 'r done.

Tears of pride

As I was deciding on what to blog about today I heard Rudy Giuliani give a speech that sent tears streaming down my face. After he finished all I could think of is that speech will go down in history. What I feel when I hear Martin Luther King give his speech sending chills deep in your soul is what I was feeling as I listened to Mr. Rudy Giuliani give his speech just now. I turned off the TV so I could write a blog but I can't get his inspiring words and powerful message that gives me hope that peace is possible for all man kind not just America but to everyone around the World. World Peace is possible but it has to start in our own backl yards.

Boiling water

Have you ever noticed that the closer you get to what you need the harder it is to wait? It's like needing to go to the bathroom as you get stuck in traffic on your way home. You do just fine until you step foot out of your car door to head to your front door. Then suddenly you feel like you can't hold it any longer. To make waiting easier you got to distract yourself. Because if it's all you focus on it will make waiting harder. I know you have heard the old phrase "A watched pot never boils".

Listen to learn

As you gather with family and friends be sure to listen closely. You will be surprised how many of the stories you heard them talking about will pop up throughout your life as you or someone you know may face later in life that may be helpful. Unfortunately there is little small talk time spent together. That is a shame because they will have learned less than they should of to help them on their Life's Journey. A quick text every day or so doesn't allow opportunities for small talk. Plan the time to just sit and talk so they can listen and learn.

There is a cost for everything.

When you get older you realize that everything you do will have a price later in Life. Every choice you make will be part of what shapes your future. When I saw my grandkids who were way to big to be crawling around on their knees I know that will do unnecessary damage to their knees later in Life and it will be very painful. They sure don't understand anything except I was spoiling their fun. Make sure the price you will pay later in Life is worth what you get from doing it now.

Just Flush It as it comes!

Things happen in Life that's just Life. If you look at them as simply Life Lessons you can then understand that with growth comes growing pains. With that being said if you deal with them with anger you create your own problems that were not meant to be. Learn what you need to from them to grow as you go through your Life's Journey.

Bigger isn't always better

Of course a big bank account is better. But a bigger house means a bigger house payment. A bigger car uses more gas. A bigger appetite for the newest electronic gadgets can destroy any budget. It's the little things that mean the most in life so make sure to enjoy them not miss them while you only look for something big to happen.

Your free to choose

You always have a choice even if you can't control the situations you have to deal with, you do get to choose how you react to it. Your freedom to choose is your chance to make the best of anything you must face. How you look at it will determine whether you see things clearly. And choosing to do nothing is still a choice you make. As you celebrate this July 4th be sure to choose to be thankful for your independence.

I dare you!

Your hopes and dreams are what motivate you. So when someone loses Hope and gives up on their dreams then they simply exist. To help motivate them again you simply have to show them that there is at least a glimmer of hope and convince them that Dreams really do come true if only they would dare to dream.
