Time to focus...focus...focus!!

Two things in this world that are most important : GOD and FAMILY. All else is extraneous. Why then, do we seem to focus on that which is not important, in the long scheme of things? Gee, I have my theories; the foremost of which is : simply, we're human.

Yeah, as humans we get caught up in the day to day grind, the "wonder what they think of me" and the "wonder if that means what I think it means" and sometimes we get so caught up in our careers and in making money that we neglect 1 & 2.

Lest we forget, take the time to stop today : stop and just look around you -- realize that those people who you think are boosting you just might be tearing you down. They may be allowing you to harm yourself in ways you can't even begin to imagine right now. Then look at 1 & 2 -- are they being taken care of? Or are "other things" becoming more important? Then ask yourself how do you get back to 1 & 2....and remember : just like Nike said, JUST DO IT!!

I hope you start out each day anew, and Blessed by those around you. Don’t be bogged down, don’t allow yourself to get sucked in, rise above it all : and hold your head up high, knowing full well that you have been what you were supposed to be all along. It’s OK if, by chance, you get caught up in the mess of it all…it happens, after all.

Remember : we are only human, but our Heavenly Father is Divine…and HE forgives all. You just need to ask. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could take a page from His book, and forgive others…try it today, you just might find it’s the most indescribable feeling…So go ahead, forgive that coworker for looking at you funny, forgive that bad driver for cutting you off, forgive the person who didn’t know any better who said that hurtful thing without thinking. See how you feel.

Here's to just doing it.
